SMART TECHNOLOGY FOR DRILLHOLE SURVEYING
‘Can you rely on your drillholes being straight and
following the planned path? Even short drillhales can
deviate by a considerable amount and this can have
serious consequences in quarrying, blasting and
geotechnical work. Costly drillhole data is rendered
inaccurate, in some cases almost useless. You could
be exposing your operation to unnecessary costs
that will erode your profit margin.
WITH FLEXIT YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE
FLEXIT is a world leader for cutting-edge drillhole
surveying and measuring equipment. With FLEXIT
‘SmartTool systems you always know the precise loca-
tion and spatial relationships of your drillholes. FLEXIT
offers the most innovative drillhole surveying and
measuring equipment on the market today.
FLEXIT SmartTools are highly user-friendly and
simple to handle in the most difficult field conditions.
They offer extremely accurate recording of measure-
ments, and long, trouble-free service lives.
IT MAKES SOUND FINANCIAL SENSE
The financial benefits are impressive. Eliminating costly
drilling errors and ensuring accurate mining, FLEXIT
SmartTools reduce driling costs and drilling time.
You get full Quality Assurance of survey data, and you
spend less on equipment, since no expensive surface
‘equipment is required
LET OUR HELP CENTERS SUPPORT YOU
Invest in FLEXIT drillhole survey and measuring
‘equipment and you enter a business partnership that
will last throughout the lifetime of the equipment.

LONG EXPERIENCE GAINED BIT BY BIT!
A CUTTING-EDGE COMPANY
Founded by Birgitta and Claes Ericsson, Sweden,
FLEXIT is a world leader in the development, manu-
facture, and marketing of advanced, precision drillhole
survey systems. The company's excellent reputation as
a stable, financially independent know-how company is
built on more than 30 years of personal experience in
the drilling industry.
FLEXIT SmartTools are the perfect solution for
precision drillhole surveying and measurement in a
broad spectrum of industries. Our customers are to
be found in international and national prospecting,
mining, oil & gas, tunneling, quarrying, civil engineering,
and construction. FLEXIT equipment is utilized for
‘geotechnical applications and site investigations.
RESPONDING TO OUR CUSTOMERS’ NEEDS
FLEXIT aims to be at the cutting edge of technical
development of new and improved methods for deter-
mining drillhole deviation in overburden and bedrock.
FLEXIT hardware and software engineers have exten-
sive know-how in the field of borehole surveying and
long experience of sensor system development. By
‘combining our know-how with feedback from our
‘customers and users, we are able to focus our product,
development activities on meeting the present and
future needs of the mining, exploration and ground
‘engineering industries. Our expertise is complemented
by extensive in-house resources for testing and evalu-
ation of sensor technologies, electronics design and
software development.
QUALITY IN PRODUCTION
FLEXIT manufactures its SmartTool range of drillhole
surveying and measuring equipment to the highest
‘quality standards. The company has well-equipped facili-
tes for production, calibration, repair and maintenance.
The production line includes the latest equipment for
testing, final assembly and quality control of all elec-
tronic components and mechanical parts. There is a
line of temperature controlled calibration equipment
for gyros, accelerometers and magnetic sensors.SMART DRILLHOLE

SEE IT FROM ALL ANGLES
FLEXIT SmartTools use wireless communications.
They're easy to use, highly accurate and capable of
surveying at all angles. All data generated can be further
processed in MeasurelT software and tabulated, plotted
and exported to other formats using DisplaylT.
The FLEXIT SmartTool range comprises:
SingleSmart
Using the SensIT probe, SingleSmart records dip and
direction angles between drilling operations in single-
shot mode. No laptop or PC is needed. The data is,
transferred from the onboard memory to the StorelT
data pad using the fast, built-in radio link
MultiSmart
Offers multi-shot measurements using the SensIT
probe. MuitiSmart is controlled from StorelT, a laptop.
palm or field PC. Seven parameters are recorded at
‘each measuring station,
‘The MultiSmart tracks the path of the hole during a
drill-bit change or after completion of the drillhole.
‘The data is transferred from the onboard memory to a

PC through the TransIT, using the fast, built-in radio link.
The data is stored in the PC for further calculation and
presentation by Measure!T and DisplayIT.
GyroSmart
GyroSmare is a complete downhole surveying package
for logging and mapping of drilled holes. Offering direc-
tional surveying in all environments, GyroSmart is also
effective in magnetic environments such as inside steel
casing, inside drill rods, near iron/steel constructions,
and through magnetic ore.
Reliable micro gyro technology makes the GyroSmart
tool very rugged. The MEMS Gyro sensor system can
sustain high shock levels.
The GyroSmart requires no conductor cable. Power is
provided by a rechargeable internal battery pack and
data is transferred to a PC from the onboard memory
Using a Bluetooth radio module. The data can be proces-
sed in afield computer directly atthe rig and the soft-
ware system provides its own internal quality checks.

‘Once the data is uploaded and processed in MeasurelT,
DisplayiT is used to present the results in graphical or
tabular form. You can plot any number of holes to-

to be tabulated. The graphical data is plotted in a cor-
rected coordinate system.
+ Graphical display of drilhole survey paths (single or
‘multiple surveys) in Plan and Section view.
Tabular results displayed with all or selected survey and

+ View and print graphs and tables of selected survey
results with fully editable header and footer data
+ Export of all or selected survey data to files for use in
‘other applications.

RUNNING GEAR
Each SmartToo! is installed inside a pressure barrel
(running gear) to protect it in the drillhole and to
adapt the tool to its mode of operation (drill rod,
wire line, ete.)
‘The running gear is available in different sizes starting
from 36mm (EX). Minimum wire line rod dimension is
BQ size. The SmartTools can be operated in a number
of different modes.

+ In open hole on wireline
+ In open hole attached to a drill rod
+ Inside a drill rod where the lowest rods
(minimum 6m) are of non-magnetic material
+ In wireline core drilling by replacing the inner
barrel with the running gear and run through
and below the bit.
+ The MultiSmare can also be operated on a releasable
wireline into a drill string whose lowest rods (mini-
mum 6m) are of non-magnetic material. Survey as
you pull the rods, taking a “shot” each time the drill
crew breaks out a joint.
