Probing at vibration

Service > Geotechnical

Corer vibration (vibrocorer type structure with gravity and vibrating table)capable to remove sensitive corer,or semi sedimente corer up to 500-600 cm below the bottom.This corer weight and bulck material,is not suitable for deployment of work from a smaller vassel(eg.boat exploration),but likely requres a small pontoon mooring with four points and grue board with a capacity of a last 30tons.The base has a more sensitive area of 20sqm an similarly,significantly inches.For this operation requires a geologist/geotehnical engineer as well four generic helpers provided by the crew.
The vibrocorer GSO is design to obtain samples in chesive sils ground to a macimum depth of 50meters(100m optional).
After the divice is placed on the seabed,the head begins to vibrate and the sample tube containing the PVC tube penetrates into the sea bottom.The system of hydraulic piston is used to bring in marine sediments with minimal disturbance.After recovering the unit of vibration can be rotated in a horizontal position to facilitate removal of the sample.The slider controls the penetration degree.The standard range of samplers inclunding 2,3,4,5, and 6 meters,but other lengths are available at request,also different size of samples are available.When all components are mounted on the base,the entire unit is relatively easy to carry:
Vibrocorer basic system is composed of:

  • engine piston with prenetation index
  • sampling system bars 2000x2mm diameter 110mm
  • samples of 2m,3m,4m,5m or 6m
  • penetration 2.05 3.05 4.05 5.05 or 6.05
  • maximum working depth 50m(standard)
  • hydraulic cable(40/60 standard)
  • hydraulic power generator
  • maximum depth 50m (100m optional)
