Rethinking the CPT workflow
For decades, the sounding cable has been a standard part of CPT operations. While cones and measurement technology have continued to evolve, handling the cable has remained a repetitive and time-consuming part of the job.
We saw an opportunity to change that. With Data Rods, our new CPT system, operators can perform tests without the traditional sounding cable, offering the freedom of wireless CPT with the reliability of a direct data connection.
- Cable-Free CPT operation
No sounding cable, for a simpler workflow. - Designed around the operator
Improved ergonomics and reduced physical strain during CPT operations. - Built on your existing CPT setup
Compatible with existing Royal Eijkelkamp cones and modules.
Data Rods: a new generation of CPT rods
Designed with a strong focus on ergonomics, compatibility and reliability, Data Rods make daily CPT operations simpler and more comfortable.
Beyond comfort and ease of use, we focused on robustness across the entire operating process, including data acquisition. The result is a system that combines the advantages of cable-free CPT with the versatility and dependable performance that professional operations demand, even in challenging field conditions.
New Possibilities, Existing Equipment
A better way of working shouldn’t mean giving up measurement capabilities or replacing equipment you already own. That’s why compatibility was a key requirement from the very start of development.
Data Rods work with our existing CPT cones and modules, including seismic and video modules. You keep using your current equipment and benefit from the new working method, without having to invest in new cones and modules.
The Next Step in CPT
With Data Rods, we’re introducing a new way of working with CPT that builds on the equipment and measurement capabilities you already know.
We believe it’s a meaningful improvement in the everyday work of CPT operators: more comfortable to work with, compatible with your current setup, and dependable in the field. It’s also the next step in our ongoing effort to further develop and automate CPT operations.
