Tracked Robot Base Kit

In critical infrastructure such as oil, gas, water conservancy, and urban underground pipeline networks, pipeline inspections often face challenges like confined spaces, damp environments, and toxic gases. Tracked robot base achieves stable climbing on 30° slippery slopes under 200kg real load via a 48V 3000W servo motor. IP55-rated protection withstands high-pressure water jets and chemical corrosion. 360° on-the-spot turning combined with anti-derailment tracks enables effortless navigation through complex terrain. Multiple CAN/RS-485 interfaces support rapid attachment of fire monitors, pipeline inspection devices, or agricultural sampling modules.

What environments is this tracked robot base primarily suitable for?

The tracked robot base is widely applicable for inspection tasks in urban water supply/drainage pipelines, gas pipelines, industrial chemical pipelines, and underground utility tunnels. Equipped with corresponding sensors, it can monitor pipeline interior corrosion, cracks, deposits, or gas leaks in real time, helping to prevent accidents and extend pipeline service life.

1. Urban Sewer Pipeline Inspection: In numerous urban sewer maintenance projects, tracked robot bases are deployed to detect corrosion, cracks, siltation, and structural defects on the inner walls. Equipped with high-definition cameras and sensors, the robots navigate through high-water-level and silt-accumulated environments, transmitting real-time data to eliminate the need for manual entry into hazardous areas.

2. Gas Pipeline Safety Inspections: In natural gas pipeline projects across the United States and Europe, tracked robot bases are deployed for internal pipeline inspections, including riverbed crossings. These robots detect leaks, corrosion, and deformation, enabling long-distance inspections exceeding 1,000 meters.

3. Industrial Oil and Gas Pipeline Maintenance: In oilfield and chemical pipeline projects, tracked robots are deployed for long-distance field inspections to detect oil leaks, corrosion, and equipment conditions.

4. Utility Tunnel and Underground Tunnel Inspection: In underground utility tunnel projects, tracked or rail-mounted robots are employed for simultaneous inspection of multiple pipelines (power, gas, water supply).

Prior to deploying the tracked robot base kit, conduct preliminary environmental surveys (e.g., pipe inner diameter, slope mapping) and select customized accessories (e.g., explosion-proof enclosures, high-temperature-resistant cables) to enhance applicability in extreme scenarios.

1. Physical Spatial Environment

Narrow Confined Pipelines: Suitable for various pipeline systems with an inner diameter ≥1 meter (e.g., municipal sewage pipes, oil and gas transmission mains, industrial cooling circulation pipes). At bends, T-junctions, or valve-dense zones, their 360° zero-radius turning capability enables flexible obstacle avoidance (e.g., sediment, maintenance supports) without requiring additional maneuvering space.

Confined Work Areas: Within vertical shafts, tunnel maintenance passages, or equipment rooms with wellhead diameters <1.5 meters, the 200KG payload platform can simultaneously integrate a high-definition camera gimbals, Li-DAR, gas sensors, and an illumination system. This enables simultaneous multi-parameter data collection, eliminating the need for multiple entry-exit operations due to spatial constraints.

2. Climate and Humidity Conditions

High-humidity/spray environments: IP55 protection rating provides core safeguarding—withstands continuous water mist, condensation droplets, and low-pressure sprays (e.g., pipe cleaning nozzles, rainwater infiltration through downspouts). The protective housing's sealed design effectively blocks moisture intrusion into the motor and controller.

Dust and Contamination: The IP55 dust protection rating (Level 5) blocks industrial particles such as cement dust, coal ash, and metal shavings. Suitable for mining ventilation ducts and power plant dust collection systems, but requires regular cleaning of track gaps to prevent long-term accumulation of fine dust that could impair transmission.

3. Media and Chemical Exposure

Liquid Medium: Can briefly traverse shallow water accumulation, such as localized flooding in rainwater pipes or cooling water leakage zones, but cannot submerge or traverse deep water areas.

Chemical Exposure: In oil and gas pipelines, it resists adhesion of light oil contaminants but must avoid prolonged immersion in crude oil or organic solvents (e.g., benzene compounds) to prevent seal aging. Contact with highly corrosive media (e.g., concentrated sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide solution) is strictly prohibited; a corrosion-resistant coated custom version must be selected.

4. Terrain and Athletic Challenges

30° Continuous Incline: Capable of handling mountainous oil pipelines, inclined shaft ascents, or aging pipeline networks with settlement deformation. The 2000W torque servo motor delivers stable traction, while the dual-drive controller dynamically adjusts wheel speed differentials to prevent sideways slippage.

Complex Terrain: Capable of traversing obstacles ≤5cm high (e.g., pipe weld spatter, gravel), but avoid sharp protrusions (e.g., re-bar ends) to prevent track damage. On muddy or oily surfaces, low-speed operation (0-3 km/h) enhances traction and reduces slippage risk.

Dynamic Interference: Withstands mild vibrations (e.g., from nearby pump stations), but avoid areas with heavy machinery's high-frequency vibrations (e.g., pipelines near pile-driving sites).

Strictly prohibited environments for tracked robot base:

Fully submerged water areas (e.g., submerged sections of inverted siphon pipelines), high-pressure water jet zones;

Explosive gas environments (e.g., unventilated natural gas-filled enclosed pipe sections), requiring additional explosion-proof certified modules;

Temperatures below -10°C or above 50°C, areas with strong electromagnetic interference (e.g., pipelines adjacent to substations), which may cause vehicle control failure.

In areas with toxic gas concentrations exceeding safety limits, an external gas alarm must be used, and the operator must remotely terminate the task.
