Precision In-Pipe Cutting Without Excavation

Robotic Cutting &
Obstruction Removal

Some pipe problems can’t be solved with liners alone. When obstructions, intrusions, or structural debris block flow or prevent rehabilitation, TrenchFree deploys advanced robotic cutting systems to restore pipe function from the inside. Our robotic units navigate pipelines to cut through rebar, remove intruding materials, reinstate lateral connections, and grind away blockages that would otherwise require costly excavation.

Capabilities

Comprehensive robotic solutions tailored to your pipe rehabilitation needs

Robotic lateral reinstatement

Reopening lateral connections sealed during lining

Rebar and obstruction removal

Cutting through protruding rebar, broken pipe sections, or hardite deposits

Internal pipe cutting and grinding

Smoothing rough edges, removing tuberculation, or correcting misalignments

Post-cut sealing

Immediately sealing cut areas with sectional liners to prevent future infiltration

Best Used When

Our robotic cutting systems are the ideal solution when traditional excavation methods are impractical, costly, or disruptive to operations and infrastructure.

The TrenchFree Advantage

Our robotic systems are operated by experienced technicians who understand pipe hydraulics, structural integrity, and rehabilitation sequencing. We don’t just remove obstructions—we restore the pipe to optimal condition and prepare it for long-term performance.
