Carlson Boretrak 3

The Boretrak®3 borehole deviation measurement system is a simple-to-use, gyro-based system for measuring the deviation of boreholes at any drill hole operation such as underground mines, on the surface, in quarries, open-pit operations, and civil works.

As a successor to the widely used Boretrak2, the fundamental capabilities of the Boretrak3 are backed by over 35 years of in-the-field history. The Boretrak3 combines this experience into a single, all-purpose unit capable of measuring boreholes in any inclination: down, up or horizontal.

Together with Carlson Boretrak software, the Boretrak3 provides a simple to use system for checking the accuracy of drilled holes and their deviation from design.

Improve Safety

  • Accurately measure borehole deviation and effectively use the data to plan projects safely and in compliance with auditing requirements

  • Record and visualize 3D data on drilling activity from ground level or underground site

  • Comply with quarrying legislation–Avoid the potential risks and costs associated with blasting from deviated or un-surveyed boreholes

Increase Blasting and Workforce Efficiency

  • Optimizes blasting and engineering works by easily creating detailed maps of drilling activity

  • Reduces the need for large teams with entire drilling sites able to be measured and modeled in hours

  • Portable, lightweight, and hand-deployable, the system is designed to be used by a single operator

  • Checks drilled holes and produces in-the-field reports in minutes

  • On-site drilling operations become data-led with no guesswork and knowledge gaps

Works Reliably in Extreme Environments

  • Designed for the rugged mining and quarrying environments – harsh weather, muddy holes, extreme temperatures, and ruggedized treatment

  • Have confidence that the system will last for years, giving accurate and reliable data in the toughest conditions

  • Capable of operating in areas of magnetic interference and in flooded holes
