Horizontal Directional Drilling Technology
AMS No-Dig utilise the latest technological advances in Directional Drilling to provide the best quality
and most efficient service to our customers, including:
Atlas Bore Planner
The Atlas Bore Planner allows our engineers to plan and visualise a bore on a PC before drilling.
A detailed terrain plan is entered into the software, either manually, or by using a new system of
lasers where the engineer in the field walks the approximate path of the bore with part of the laser
system, and a laptop computer then decodes the information received from the sensors and converts it
into a terrain plan.
Utilities and other underground services, rivers, lakes, roads, railways etc. are all added to the bore plan.
The engineer can then specify the exclusion zone around these utilities. The type of drilling machine and length of
rods is also specified.

When the software has all of the information that it needs, it calculates the bore path, and displays it
for the engineer to view. This can then be adjusted manually if required. The software will not allow
the exclusion zones around underground services to be entered, nor will it allow the bend radius of the rods to be exceeded.
When the planning stage is complete, the bore plan and the drilling details can be printed.
These include detailed instructions including the angle of each rod for the full bore.

Terrain Mapping
One-person, fast and accurate topography and utility collection.
The Terrain-Mapping System utilises a reflective laser to allow quick
and accurate collection of job site data. Information can quickly and conveniently be
uploaded to ATLAS BORE PLANNERŪ software for a completely integrated job site approach.

Navtec
The NAVTEC computer-aided steering system works in tough steering conditions using
preset parameters like clock-face sweep and thrust/rotation pressures.
NAVTEC provides steering in demanding ground conditions where conventional thrust steering
is not possible.
