Inuktun MaggHD™ Magnetic Inspection Crawler
The Inuktun MaggHD™ is a compact, tethered magnetic inspection crawler engineered for high-definition remote visual inspection of ferrous structures where direct personnel access is difficult, hazardous, or operationally inefficient. Its rare-earth magnetic chassis and twin 4000-Series Microtracs™ enable controlled travel across horizontal, vertical, and inverted steel surfaces while the full-HD camera provides a 360° continuous tilt range, 10x optical zoom, and 12x digital zoom.
Designed for both dry and submerged inspection, the MaggHD is depth rated to 60 m (200 ft) and supports up to 100 m (330 ft) of tether. Operators can capture live video, still images, and inspection information through Eddyfi’s ICON™ platform. Optional laser reference lines and auxiliary lighting improve visual assessment, while the removable camera head can be deployed on a pole for localized inspection of tanks, vessels, manholes, and other confined spaces.
The platform is particularly well suited for asset-integrity programs involving storage tanks, pressure vessels, large-diameter piping, wind-energy structures, marine assets, offshore facilities, and controlled-access nuclear applications.

Features:
Full-HD Inspection Camera: Provides high-definition remote visual inspection with 10x optical zoom, 12x digital zoom, and continuous camera tilt for detailed examination of difficult-to-access assets.
Magnetic Surface Mobility: Rare-earth magnetic modules allow the crawler to travel on horizontal, vertical, and inverted ferrous surfaces including steel tanks, vessels, piping, and structural components.
Long-Range Tethered Operation: Supports up to 100 m (330 ft) of tether for remote inspection while maintaining power, communication, video, and control from the operator station.
60 m Depth Rating: Designed for inspection above or below the waterline to depths of 60 m (200 ft), supporting dry, splash-zone, and submerged inspection applications.
Optional Laser Reference: Two optional vertical 635 nm laser lines spaced 70 mm (2.75 in) apart provide an on-screen dimensional reference during visual inspection.
Integrated and Auxiliary Lighting: Includes two variable in-camera LEDs with support for optional external 801 lights to improve visibility in dark tanks, vessels, pipelines, and submerged environments.
ICON™ Inspection Software: Supports ICON™ and ICON RPT™ for system control, video and still-image capture, inspection documentation, and reporting.
Removable Camera Head: The camera can be removed from the crawler and mounted to a deployment pole for rapid nearby inspection of tanks, pressure vessels, manholes, and other confined spaces.
Applications:
Storage Tank Inspection: Remotely inspect tank walls, welds, coatings, and other internal or external ferrous surfaces while reducing the need for direct personnel access.
Pressure Vessel Inspection: Capture close-up and zoomed HD imagery of vessel surfaces, welds, coatings, and other areas requiring condition assessment.
Large-Diameter Pipe Inspection: Travel along ferrous pipe surfaces to visually assess welds, coatings, corrosion indications, and other areas of interest.
Underwater Weld and Coating Inspection: Perform remote visual assessment of submerged welds, paint systems, and ferrous structures at depths up to 60 m (200 ft).
Wind Turbine Inspection: Inspect wind turbine towers and other magnetic structural components using the crawler's vertical climbing capability and HD camera system.
Ship Hull and Marine Inspection: Examine ship hulls, splash-zone steel, coatings, welds, and other marine structures above or below the waterline.
Offshore Structure Inspection: Remotely inspect difficult-access ferrous components on offshore platforms and related oil and gas infrastructure.
Potable Water System Inspection: Conduct remote visual inspection of suitable steel tanks and water-system infrastructure without placing personnel directly at the inspection location.
Reactor Vessel Inspection: Support controlled remote visual assessment of reactor vessels and other suitable nuclear-industry steel structures.
Confined Space and Manhole Inspection: Use the crawler or removable pole-mounted camera to visually access locations where conventional personnel entry is difficult or undesirable.
