Cutting Robot Rescues a Failed UV Liner — Macau
A UV-cured liner had failed mid-cure, leaving hardened resin blocking the line. Our pipe cutting robot ground out the cured resin so the pipe could be re-lined — without excavation or reinstatement.
Real deployments of the equipment we supply — from emergency liner recovery in Macau to utility fleets in Brazil and record-speed rehabilitation in the USA.

A US contractor completed a 60-metre DN380 CIPP lining in a single 1.5-hour window with the UV curing system we supply — minimal traffic disruption from start to finish.
Through our partner SONDEQ, crawler systems and control terminals were delivered to BRK Ambiental, one of Brazil's largest water and wastewater utilities — with on-site assembly and operator training.
Pipecare Korea visited twice in two months for hands-on operation training with the T200 cutting robot and S300Y mainline crawler — from first demo to confident independent operation.
One operator wheeled the compact S150A system — crawler, reel and console — straight through an operating plant to the survey point. No crane, no confined-space entry for the set-up crew.
Dutch inspection specialist Nebest conducted an outdoor field evaluation of the amphibious S450A — crossing silt, ditches and wet terrain to assess its fit for Dutch network conditions.
