Vibrocorer system from Frankstar

Vibrocorer system from Frankstar,
,
Key Features & Advantages

Subsea Capability & Robust Design: Featuring a sealed motor rated for depths up to 3000 m, the system activates a high-torque vibrator upon seabed contact to drive the barrel into sediment with precision. Its modular design allows quick assembly into the required core length dockside or on deck.

Guaranteed Sample Integrity: A specialized cutting shoe and core catcher minimize disturbance, preserving sediment stratigraphy and delivering continuous, in-situ structured cores essential for accurate analysis.

Optimized Operational Efficiency: Designed for streamlined workflow, cores can be retrieved vertically or horizontally with easy barrel handling. Controlled by a rugged, all-weather unit, it ensures reliable performance and maximum uptime in marine conditions.

 Applications

Marine Sediment Surveys

Windfarm Site Investigations

Cable Laying Site Investigations

Coastal Engineering Projects

Scientific Research Surveys

General Model Specifications

Engineered for high-quality sampling in compacted sediments, Frankstar Vibrocorer delivers powerful, modular performance for rapid operation from a wide range of vessels. It recovers pristine 50 to 96 mm diameter cores, ideal for both complex offshore projects and agile nearshore surveys. The system can also be customized to meet specific project requirements.
