ROBOTIC OBSTRUCTION REMOVAL

Water Jet Cutting

Fast and controlled removal of solid obstructions with precision water jet cutting

PRECISION & CONTROL

Precision Water jet cutting for sewer pipes

SEWER ROBOTICS combines a powerful high-pressure, low-volume water jet with a precisely steerable nozzle and an integrated CCTV camera. This enables controlled removal of solid obstructions and deposits from pipes and lateral connections in diameters from 150 to 1000 mm (6- 40”).

With a clear view of the cutting process, operators can continuously adjust water pressure, nozzle angle and distance to the material. This allows targeted removal while protecting the existing pipe structure.

PRECISION & CONTROL

Full Control Throughout the Cutting Process

live camera monitoring

Keep a clear view of the cutting area with the integrated CCTV camera for controlled and accurate obstruction removal.

Continuously adjustable pressure

 Continuously adjust water pressure from the robot controls to match different materials and changing conditions.

Precise nozzle positioning

 Adjust the nozzle angle and distance to target obstructions precisely while protecting the existing pipe structure.

Case studies

WATER JET CUTTING IN ACTION

Discover how Sewer Robotics tackles challenging obstructions in real projects, from concrete and calcium deposits to failed liners and hardened wax.

Lombardy, IT

Concrete Removal

Lombardy, IT

Concrete had blocked a 400 mm sewer pipe in Italy for ten years despite repeated removal attempts. Using the R125 robot with the WJ125 module, Sewer Robotics restored flow within hours before removing the remaining concrete.

Los Angeles, CA

Calcium Removal

Los Angeles, CA

Heavy calcium deposits had formed a “pipe within a pipe” in a Los Angeles sewer. Pacific Sewer Maintenance broke up the buildup for removal, restoring 600 feet of pipeline to full capacity.

Northamton, UK

cipp liner Removal

NORTHAMPTON, UK

A failed, partially uncured CIPP liner obstructed a 450 mm sewer pipe in Northampton. Using precise water jet cutting, the WJ180 robot cut the liner into manageable pieces for removal through the manhole.

Bladel, NL

Wax Removal

Bladel, NL

After a factory fire in Bladel, melted candle wax entered and hardened inside the sewer network. Precision water jet cutting robots removed deposits that conventional jetting trucks could not clear, avoiding lengthy pipe replacement.

“In 30 minutes more material was removed than what 5 other companies had removed together in 3 weeks”
