The Tomography ARBOTOM® Series 6 can be paired with a Resistograph resistance drilling to increase the accuracy and confirm the ARBOTOM inspection.
ARBORADIX ™ATTACHMENT
With the ARBORADIX ™ attachment, you can define the extent and location of the root system of a certain tree or plant.
Used in conjunction with the Tomography ARBOTOM® Series 6 , the ARBORADIX ™ sensor allows the user to map roots. An additional sensor, connected to a steel pole, is placed on the ground in a measured grid pattern, and tapped. The stress wave signal is sent back to other sensors already attached to the tree. When roots are present the signal transmits rapidly along the roots, creating a pathway that can be mapped to define the extent and location of the root system.
By mapping out the stress wave patterns from a comprehensive grid pattern, the root locations can be defined. This is useful as a means of knowing where roots are likely to be located under roads, sidewalks or other coverings not easily removed beforehand.
The ARBORADIX ™ attachment and software is available as an add on to existing ARBOTOM kits, or is included in the 16 and 24 sensor ARBOTOM Kits.
Main Features are:
- Fast and easy positioning of root sensor through quick buttons for changing root measurement distances.
- Roots with diameter of down to 2cm in a depth of down to 50cm detectable.
- Overall-stress wave speed from pin to sensor ranges from approx. 100 to 500m/s.
- Arbotom® sensors on stem base of tree react when mechanical impulse arrives.
- Line-graphs indicate major root area and extension/distance of major roots from stem base.
