Revolutionizing Geotechnical Monitoring| Inclino-Robot VS Traditional Manual Inclinometer

Date:2024-07-07

In the geotechnical monitoring industry, particularly in the inclinometer equipment sector, experienced professionals often encounter several pain points and challenges

Bad Weather Conditions: High temperatures, rain, and snow exacerbate the operational difficulties for field personnel

Installation and Alignment Issues: Improper installation and alignment can easily lead to measurement errors.

Cost-effectiveness: Many inclinometers on the market are either high inclinometer prices or have high labor costs associated with their use, resulting in low cost-effectiveness. Inclinometer price

Complex Data Transmission and Analysis: The process of transmitting and analyzing data from inclinometers can be complex and time-consuming.

These challenges highlight the need for advancements in inclinometer monitoring technology and better solutions to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of monitoring practices. So, after years of dedicated research and development, GeoSitter, an inclinometer manufacturer has introduced a new generation of inclinometer- cutting-edge Inclino-Robot.

Inclino-Robot VS Traditional Manual Inclinometers 

The Inclino-Robot matches the measurement principles and accuracy of traditional manual inclinometers but offers several distinct advantages over them. Let's use a subway deep excavation project with  25 boreholes, each 40 meters deep, as an example to analyze their differences in detail.

- Different Measurement Efficiency: Traditional inclinometers require manual measurements, with each borehole taking about 30 minutes. Consequently, measuring 25 boreholes would take a minimum of 12 hours. Inclino-Robot only needs 3 hours to complete the project, including the test report.

- Different Report Output Efficiency:The data must be manually input into a computer system for analysis and report generation, which adds another 2 hours. While data from the automatic measurement of Inclino-Robot can be viewed in real time on-site through mobile phones and seamlessly and automatically uploaded to the cloud.

- Different Labor Costs: Manual measurement for deep horizontal displacement in excavation pits involves a substantial amount of labor, manual inclinometer pulls, and manual report generation, which needs 2-3 workers to complete one project. Whereas, one person is sufficient to handle multiple projects with Inclino-Robot.

The Monitoring Cloud Platform

The Inclino-Robot monitoring cloud platform can be connected to the customer-specified platform and connected to the Inclino-robot Monitoring Cloud Platform.

- It receives the collected data from the inclinometer, providing immediate visualization and graphical representations of the measurements.

- Users can customize templates on the cloud platform, integrating inclinometer data with other manually or automatically collected data, generating automated reports.

- This eliminates the need for hours of manual report generation, significantly reducing the workload and improving efficiency.
