Our track-truck is suitable for most geotechnical sites. This rig is

driven as a self-contained HGV to site where it can deploy its tracks

to cope with soft or uneven terrain.

The track-truck can be driven from the front and back, and is fitted

with a chalwyn valve and spark arrestor to enable testing on

potentially hazardous sites such as oil and gas refineries.

Performance Rates

An expected 100m+ of standard CPTu testing can be

executed in a day (dependent on site conditions and access).

it perfect for penetrating hard ground with our dummy cone tip.

This technique allows us to continue testing in material beneath.

Our wheeled rig is suitable for hard standing ground conditions.

The spacious interior is ideal for housing our MIP equipment for

environmental testing.

Our ‘bogskipper’ tracked rig’s low bearing pressures, large footprint,

and high ground clearance make it ideal for working sites with boggy

or soft ground conditions.

Unique to the UK, this rig is suitable for intertidal projects, peat

bogs and weight-sensitive sites. The rubber tracks minimize

the potential for any damage to delicate infrastructure, such as

a sea wall.

Lankelma’s inclined testing rig connects to the end of most

excavator arms and can be tilted to allow CPTs to be carried

out at any angle up to 90°.

The CPT cone has been modified to allow the angle of testing

to be monitored throughout the test.

Originally developed to test through a reservoir embankment,

the rig also has the potential for investigating at many other

sites, including inclined testing beneath buildings and

structures.

Requires a support vehicle to be in the vicinity to carry

additional equipment.

Performance Rates

In ideal conditions up to 50 m of standard CPTu testing can be

executed in a day.

Ideal for sites with challenging access, this rig has previously been

utilised in London’s residences. The rubber tracks provide the rig with

a low bearing pressure making it suitable for soft terrain whilst

causing minimal tracking damage.

The mini-crawler has 4 ground anchors (0.5 m in length) which screw

into the ground to give a reaction force.

The mini crawler is suitable for projects on rivers, canals, flood and

sea defenses/embankments and other sites where access is difficult

for conventional rigs.

Performance Rates

Up to 50 m of standard CPTu testing can be executed in a day

(dependent on site conditions and access).

UK09

Anchoring, by Acrow props, bolts or weights, provides the reaction

force for testing. This unit is ideal for testing in confined spaces such

as warehouses or basements.

UK10

Designed for use in tunnels, this light-weight mobile unit has been

mounted at varying angles for horizontal CPTs on London Tube lines.

Anchoring the rams to the ground or wall provides the reaction force.

UK16 is towed to site by a van housing the CPT equipment. This rig

is suitable for narrow access sites and can test on land or overwater

using a cantilever frame. The rig can be secured to marine platforms

to test overwater, a technique adopted when testing beneath the

River Thames, London.

On land, screw pickets are secured to the ground to provide the

reaction force for testing.

Performance Rates

Up to 70 m of standard CPTu testing can executed in a day

(dependent on site conditions and access).

This rig has integral levelling jacks and tie down

options, and can also be attached to a bespoke

static mounting frame for use with a cantilever or

truck.

This flexible mounting frame makes it ideal for

testing on overwater pontoons/jack-up platforms,

cantilever frames or via crane or kentledge.

This rig is ideal for shipping overseas, where it can

be mounted on the back of an in-country lorry, or

can be used standalone for cost effective CPTs.

Lankelma staff are PTS and OTP trained.

Network rail approved, the rig is self-contained on the tracks with

quick access and set up. The rig’s shaped profile is designed to

allow access in most UK tunnels.

Generally, the test will penetrate ballast without the need for

removal.

Performance Rates

An expected 100 to 120 m of standard CPTu testing can

executed in a single possession (dependent on site
