August 13, 2021 | Categories: Horizontal Directional Drilling

When accuracy is critical, directional thrust boring equipment is the best way to install new pipes. Power Mole Trenchless’ PD-6 is an essential tool for this type of underground utility service. Let us explain more about this equipment and how it can boost your company’s productivity, performance, and profitability.

Environmentally Friendly

The PD-6 facilitates trenchless services. It does not require disruption of property or removal of sidewalks, driveways, or roads. As a dry bore system, it does not require the use of any lubricants, so there is no risk of this directional thrust boring system leaking petroleum products into the soil of a worksite.

Easy to Use

When space is at a premium, the PD-6 is the way to go. This directional thrust borer has a small footprint, so it easily fits into a pit measuring just a few square feet in size. When the area for accessing an old pipe or installing a new one is small, the PD-6 fits where larger equipment won’t. The fast setup and ease of use make it an ideal solution when you’re bringing on new hires and don’t have a lot of time for setup and training.

Flexibility

Control the PD-6 with digital steering technology or the analog steering system. The digital steering technology features target-in-the-box controls. Switch to the analog steering system when you’re working near foundations and other types of fixed underground obstacles.
