Aqua Milling® cuts through scale on the inside of pipes using only high pressure water.
Utilising a single access point Aqua Milling® can clean up to 305 metres, cutting around directional changes in a pipeline without the need for costly pipeline dismantling.
Aqua Milling® is an innovation that significantly reduces downtime and total job costs. Non-production pipework cleaning and descaling can also be delivered ON-LINE using Vicon's Supergun system.
Benefits of Aqua Milling®
Fast setup Access can be through a single point of entry.
No dismantling of bends Aqua Milling® can negotiate multiple directional changes in the line, so avoiding costly dismantling.
No dismantling of vertical sections Aqua Milling® easily drives through both horizontal and vertical sections.
Versatile Suitable for almost all pipe materials – even plastic and polycarbonates.
Environmentally sound Can completely contain hazardous materials.
Safe Operators are not exposed to any reaction forces from jets, the whole operation being controlled remotely from the access point.
Efficient Aqua Milling® utilises all the water pressure for descaling – retro or spinning jets aren’t used to drive and rotate the cutting nozzle.
Flexibility Application works on all scale pipes with diameters between 16mm and 2 metres
Mobility Aqua Milling® is compact and can provide mobile on-site support at any time. The unit is stored in a 20ft sea container making it reliably transportable both onshore and
off shore.
