Centerline Gmbh is based in a 450 sq m dedicated facility at Wesel, Germany, close to the heart of the European pipejacking region. This geographical proximity has helped the company develop a special area of expertise in surveying curved tunnel and pipejack drives, having supplied nearly 200 pipejacking and microtunnelling projects involving some 90 km of installations. These have been driven on a variety of different radii, severely testing the capability of Centerline survey equipment.

SDV-LSW is a simple, favourably priced, modular design system for data acquisition and tunnel drive control. A laser with electronic hose levelling equipment enables precise, refraction-free control of straight pipe drives, providing information about position, height, direction, inclination and roll.

SDV13 is a guidance system for microtunnelling and pipe jacking machines which enables the precise navigation of horizontally and vertically curved and long-distance drives using gyro and electronic hose levelling technology. Precise control information is given for position, tendencies, inclination and roll.

SDV13 is so accurate that it reduces check survey to a minimum. The modular structure of this system allows the integration of various sensors for the acquisition of additional data such as pressures and strokes of main jack, interjacks and steering cylinders in order to provide complete documentation of the tunnelling process.

SDV-WW is an electronic hose levelling instrument for precise elevation determination in pipejacking advances.

Centerline has also developed communication systems specifically for tunnel and construction sites. Tunnel intercom systems can be installed at any desired location. Video monitoring of any area can be undertaken using strategically-placed and well-protected mini-cameras which can record more than a week's activity on a single cassette.


Centerline also provides tailor-made solutions for special problems associated with lengths, pressures, controls and quantities in pipejacking and microtunnelling.
