Falcon Series locating systems from industry-leading manufacturer DIGITAL CONTROL combine state-of-the-art technology with decades of locating expertise.

During the pilot hole, the operator needs to be constantly aware of the orientation and position of the bore head to be able to rotate the drill rod in the desired drilling direction or to be able to correct the direction in case of deviations from the planned drilling path. This is achieved by using a walkover system. In addition to sufficient frequency bandwidth, depth range and data range, the locating system must be as insensitive as possible to interference signals. DCI's Falcon technology sets the standard by minimising the effects of active signal interference (noise) in the field with a single wideband transmitter.
