Reflex - Borehole Survey Tools

REFLEX borehole survey tools help miners, drillers, tunnellers, grouters, ground engineers, geologists and geophysists in more than 45 countries to get more valuable information out of each borehole drilled - and thereby cut the costs of exploration and investigation. We offer a range of tools to suit your survey needs with products such as the Reflex EZ-SHOT®, Reflex EZ-AQ/EMS® and Reflex MAXIBOR® II.

All drillholes deviate from the plan. How significant it is for you depends on your current project. If you are tunneling and drilling holes for grouting then the quality of the grout curtain and the safety in the tunnel is depending on the pattern of the holes. Which you have to know.

If you are drilling in a mine and using the assay data for ore resource calculation then it is best for the future of the mine (and yours) that the program connects the ore intersections correctly.

Instruments that give you either azimuth and inclination angles or the x-y-z coordinates of a number of stations along your drill hole is what you obviously need. The borehole survey instruments manufactured by Reflex reduce your risk and optimize the amount of drilling. They let you concentrate on the drilling, where the money is made through efficient operation.

REFLEX EZ-SHOT®

The electronic single shot of Reflex, the Reflex EZ-SHOT®, is best used when you need a limited number of surveys quickly in a non magnetic environment. You get the angles you need on the display of the tool directly after recovery from survey station.

REFLEX EZ-AQ®

The Reflex EZ-AQ® Is a single shot tool for thin boreholes. It has the ability to survey up to 5 single shots in a row. The diameter of the instrument is only 25 mm, which allows for measurements in drill and blast holes from AQ-size and upwards.

REFLEX EZ-AQ/EMS®

Reflex EZ-AQ/EMS® a tool with single shot, multishot and orientation capabilities for thin boreholes. It is managed from a Pocket PC device, providing advanced functionality and a straightforward user interface. The diameter of Reflex EZ-AQ/EMS is only 25 mm, which allows for measurements in boreholes from AQ-size and upwards.

REFLEX EZ-DIP®

Reflex EZ-Dip® measures dip, or inclination, with respect to gravity. The electronic solid state sensors are not affected by magnetism, so Reflex EZ-Dip® may be used close to construction steel, inside drill strings and in other magnetic environments.

REFLEX EMS®

If you need a large number of readings, either dense or in long holes, then you should use the electronic multishot, the Reflex EMS. A computer takes care of the graphical presentation after the recordings have been downloaded. As with all survey instruments based on the orientation of the earth's magnetic field, the EMS interferes with magnetic casing, construction steel and magnetite ore. Only the horizontal azimuth angle is affected.

REFLEX MAXIBOR® II

Reflex Maxibor II calculates the spatial coordinates along the drill hole path based on optical measurements of direction changes and gravimetric measurements of dip changes. The non-magnetic measuring principles make Reflex Maxibor® II ideal for surveys in magnetically disturbed rock or inside metal drill rods.

REFLEX™ SPROCESS

Reflex SProcess is a Windows based processing software that provides a single integrated project area for viewing, printing and exporting survey data generated by Reflex instruments. All survey types may be displayed at the same time, allowing you to "mix and match" surveys.
