Radiodetection

Pipe and Cable Locators

Challenge:

Radiodetection are the world leader in the design, manufacture and supply of underground pipe and cable locators.  KD have supported Radiodetection in the design and development of several key products which have helped them maintain and strengthen their leadership position

Solutions:

KD have contributed to key Radiodetection products ranging from the ubiquitous CAT (cable avoidance tool) used by construction workers worldwide to detect locations of buried utilities, to the sophisticated itrack system which facilitates horizontal boring installation of pipes and cables.

Results:

  • Now in its third generation, CAT continues to lead the market and has been the benchmark product in buried utility detection for over 30 years
  • itrack successfully supports the growth in popularity of horizontal boring as a means of installing pipes and cables without the disruption and restoration costs of digging from the surface
