Manual Drill Control

Step-by-step

 

Drill Control Design helps designing a horizontal drill where the end result meets the set values and parameters.

 

Step-by-step design

Entering project data (optional)

Used in reports and exports. This is an administrative function and does not affect the design.

Creating a Surface to be used as dynamic EG Profile (optional)

Creating a Surface is not necessary, an EG Profile can also be formed from non-dynamic data. Working with terrain models does have many advantages though.

Creating a drill trace (required)

A trace is necessary for designing a drill. A vertical design can only be determined if there is a horizontal design. Along a trace several drills can be designed (as a variant or in different locations).

The vertical working space in which the drill is designed (required)

A Profile View is necessary for designing a drill.

Project objects and important points (optional)

In the vertical working space, important points and objects can be projected from top view. When designing, it is easy to work around or under these projections.

Placing an entry or exit point (required)

If these are not placed, at least one control point is required. Of either or both are placed, the drill design will begin or end in these points.

Placing a control point (required)

The drill can be controlled by a control point, for example by specifying a minimum depth to be achieved. If no control points are placed, at least an entry or exit point are required.

The actual design of the drill (required)

A drill can be designed by parameters, a continuous curve between entry and exit points, or based on a chosen polyline.

Export to a report, Google Earth or D-Geo Pipeline (optional)

A design can be exported to a PDF report, a polyline or solid, a KML for Google Earth, or to D-Geo Pipeline for further calculations. It is also possible to place tables in the drawing with bundle data or tangent point data.

 

 

Drill Control Construct helps creating an as-built drill from field data.

 

Step-by-step construct

Entering project data (optional)

Used in reports and exports. This is an administrative function and does not affect the as-built.

Export of construction data (optional)

Export a drill design to a construction report, or an Excel file, to be used in the field when drilling.

Importing field data (required)

Process the data coming from the field into an as-built drill.

Export to a report or Google Earth (optional)

An as-built drill can be exported to a report or as a KML for Google Earth. It is also possible to place a table with coordinate data in the drawing.
