TUnIS.pipelight
TUnIS.pipelight is a camera-based assistance system for automated control surveys in pipe jacking or direct pipe projects.

Until recently, it has been necessary to calibrate the gyro by manual measurements at short intervals. If entering the tunnel was possible, this was very time-consuming. The challenge intensified in tunnels with small diameters inaccessible for manual intervention. For such drives, automated control measurement can be a real game changer.
TUnIS.pipelight enables the calibration of the gyro navigation system without interruption of the tunnelling process. The system’s mode of operation is based on a completely innovative technology using compact camera sensors to monitor LED light points. This allows complex alignment geometries to be realised with adequate accuracy.
Benefits
- A new era in microtunnelling
For the first time, TUnIS.pipelight makes it possible to carry out control surveys in non-accessible curved drives. - Significant reduction in costs and construction time
For small, non-accessible pipe jacking, the number of intermediate shafts can be significantly reduced. - Considerable decrease in downtime for accessible direct pipe jobs
Automated control measurements take a maximum of 30 minutes instead of several hours. - Increased daily output
Significant savings in costs for energy, personnel and rental equipment over the entire project duration. - Maximum occupational safety
No surveyor required in the tunnel; no elaborate safety concepts necessary for measurement services in direct pipe drives. - High flexibility
Because of the modular system design, TUnIS.pipelight can be flexibly adapted to the project requirements and, for example, only installed in certain sections of the pipe string.
