Under the surface, whether it is coal mining, tunnel penetration or geological exploration, accurate azimuth and orientation technology has always been the core guarantee of engineering safety and efficiency. North seekers are playing an irreplaceable role in these fields with their high precision and strong anti-interference characteristics.
Taking the north seeker ER-MNS-05Mini as an example, let’s understand how the north seeker works.
**Underground excavation**
The underground environment is complex, and deviations in the tunnel direction may lead to major safety hazards. Traditional measurement tools are easily affected by metal equipment and electromagnetic interference.
The north seeking accuracy of this north seeker can reach 0.25°secψ(1σ)! It can provide more accurate azimuth, pitch angle, roll angle and other attitude information. It not only has extremely high stability, but also is not affected by external interference and can be used in magnetic mining areas.
The shield machine is susceptible to interference from geological conditions and mechanical vibration during excavation. The guidance system integrated with the north seeker can correct the attitude of the shield machine in real time.
**Geological Exploration**
In geological surveys or tunnels passing through complex strata, it is necessary to accurately measure the direction of rock strata, fault directions, etc. The north seeker can provide a high-precision direction reference and can be used in conjunction with geological radar detection to ensure the accuracy of measurement data.
**Extreme size, flexible installation**
The size of ER-MNS-05 Mini is 40*40*42 (mini version with shell)/27*26*34 (mini version without shell and baseboard), and the weight is <80g (mini version with shell)/ 40g (mini version without shell and baseboard).
**OEM Customization**
It takes only a few simple steps to connect the product to your system and obtain the geocaching data without the 15-pin plug provided by our company. The size and weight of our products are significantly reduced by removing the base plate housing.
