O-Pitdev

O-Pitdev is a revolutionary solution for measuring borehole deviations in quarries and mines. Developed by scientists and researchers who understand the needs of workers on the ground, O-Pitdev features cutting-edge technology for faster and more precise measurement readings. Its waterproof and shock-resistant design makes it ideal for non-metal operations, and it is highly efficient for 360^o measurements.

O-pitdev

Case Study: The O-Pitdev picked up deviation in the back row of holes at this quarry, with some deviating by as much as 1.0m from their design position. The back row of the holes were right up against the access ramp into the quarry, meaning that if the blast was fired with the deviated holes, the integrity of the main access ramp would have been compromised. Because this deviation was picked up by the O-Pitdev, the quarry was able to take corrective action by re-drilling these holes and ultimately protecting the integrity of the ramp.

There is something very therapeutic about measuring hole deviation. Both in terms of the repetitive process of measuring, as well as the peace of mind it gives knowing that holes were drilled as they were designed to be!

Enjoy your Monday, friends.
