Mobile equipment Vehicles end-of-line

Horizontal boring machine

Q: What are the key features of the Horizontal Boring Machine system?

Key features include a computer-based control and data acquisition system, a large steel weldment anchored to the factory floor to withstand push and pull forces, a movable cradle with hydraulic motors, a 100,000 lb load cell for tension and compression, safety scanners, a particle counter, CAN DTC monitoring, and CAN system checks.

Q: What tests does the Horizontal Boring Machine system perform?

Tests include low and high idle RPM checks, warm-up cycle, rotational/thrust/auxiliary charge pressure, rod rotational speed, thrust and pullback force, clockwise/counter-clockwise rotational force, vehicle wheel speed, mud pump charge pressure/flow/relief, underground current sensor detection for cable breaks, oil sampling and particle counting, and CAN DTC monitoring.

Titan Horizontal Boring Machine system for mobile equipment vehicles end-of-line applications. This test station is capable of functional testing various shapes and sizes of horizontal directional drilling machines used for trenchless installation of piping, cables, or conduit. This fully loaded test applies force against the push and pull of the boring drill along with resistance to the rotational movement of the drill itself. Other functions such as CAN, mudding system, underground current detection are also verified with this test.
