The AXIS pit-launched guided boring system features a laser-guided system that provides pinpoint accuracy in the trenchless installation of 10- to 14-in. pipe for on-grade water and sewer projects. It has the ability to install up to 350 ft. of steel, clay and HDPE or PVC pipe in one bore. Spoil is removed from the cutter head via a vacuum excavation system. The system can either push or pull the product pipe into place, allowing flexibility in the type of product installed. Its main components include the power unit (engine and hydraulic pumps), rack, vacuum pump and vacuum tank.
