Talpa FSR 2060

For pipe sizes from DN 200 (lined) to a maximum of DN 600

Talpa FSR 2060 has a standard design for pipes from DN 200 (lined) and can be equipped for pipe sizes to a maximum of DN 600 with the axle extenders and additional weights which can be combined with one another.

The robot is stable in the sewer pipe without requiring additional bracing or securing for the milling work. This is due to its own significant weight and its low center of gravity. Talpa FSR 2060 can tilt more than 45 degrees on its longitudinal axis without falling over.

The robot has a high degree of free mobility. Its equipped tool can reach all areas to be processed in the sewer thanks to four degrees of freedom.

The degrees of freedom in detail are:

Moving the robot carriage forwards or backwards
Orbiting the head of the robot by 200 degrees to each side
Hydraulically raising and lowering the access arm
Endlessly rotating the tooling mount by 360 degrees

The camera mounted on the head can also be pivoted horizontally so that the view can easily be directed to the area being processed in the sewer or the mounted tool.

Adjustable camera position

If required, the height of the camera can be variably adjusted using four screws in the camera mounting brackets.

Integrated Camera Rinse Nozzle

A nozzle to rinse the camera is integrated into the robot below the camera. To clean the camera, it is swiveled downward as needed and gently rinsed with water. Thanks to the system's integrated rinse function, there are no obstructing components in the field of view, ensuring a clear and unobstructed view of the work area at all times.

Pressurized interior space

To protect the interior space of the robot from the penetration of water, this is filled with air and subject to overpressure of 0.2 - 0.3 bar. With Talpa FSR 2060, this can be checked or adjusted via a valve at the rear of the carriage, using the air pump with pressure gage.

Multi-functional tooling mount

Different tools can be used in the tool holder of the Talpa FSR 2060, depending on the application. Compressed air is supplied to the tools via a hose connection routed along the work arm. The air is directed directly into the tool being used. Thanks to this integrated solution, the tool holder has an extended swivel range, as no obstructive, freely hanging hose connections to the tool are required. The camera view is also not impaired.

A motor stop integrated into the center of the working arm can be adjusted to suit the size of the tool being used. It prevents the tool from accidentally kicking back and reliably protects the camera from damage. An exhaust air guide that can be mounted on the tool holder helps divert milling dust away from the camera, thereby improving visibility during operation.

The tool holder can be changed in just a few steps to allow the chisel hammer or the HutlinerPacker® adapter (cap liner setting plate) to be mounted. To operate the angle grinder or older-style air motors, the tool holder is exchanged for the version included in the accessory kit.

Stroke extension

To enable the Talpa FSR 2060 to be used in large pipe diameters as well, the robot is supplied as standard with a stroke extension. For work with larger pipe diameters, this is fitted between the hydraulic cylinder and the work arm, providing a greater range of motion.

Strain relief / reverse driving control

To prevent unintentionally driving over the cable and the related damage when driving in reverse, the robot Talpa FSR 2060 has an integrated reverse driving control function. Here, the strain relief chain between the cable and reverse driving control rocker switch is tensioned. If the cable does not wind up fast enough during reverse driving, the rocker loses contact with the sensor and the reverse driving is prevented until the chain has tensioned itself again. This function can be switched on or off via the digital controls. The strain relief chain also protects the cable connector from tensile forces.

Hour meter

An hour meter located at the rear allows for easy and direct reading of operating hours without having to open the robot's body.

SUITABLE TOOL DRIVES

The following air motors are available for Talpa FSR 2060.

An air motor specially designed for use in the sewer with M14 connection thread to attach various tools. 800 W power consumption / 6,000 RPM on-load speed / 1.9 Nm stall torque
An air motor specially designed for use in the sewer with M14 connection thread to attach various tools. 750 W power consumption / 6,500 RPM on-load speed / 1.7 Nm stall torque
A large proportion of the Picote tools have been adapted and are in use with the Talpa FSR 1330 and Talpa FSR 2060 robots.
WHEEL SPACERS

With the Wheel spacer, the milling and sewer rehab robots can be used with the greatest pipe diameters in a way which causes low strain on their bearings. Thanks to the different Wheel spacers which can be combined with one another, the area of use of Talpa FSR 2060 can be expanded up to DN 600.

As standard, Talpa FSR 2060 is fitted with an wheel spacer set upon delivery.

The milling and sewer rehab robot Talpa FSR 2060 is supplied with an wheel spacer kit from DN 200 to DN 600 as standard.

ROBOT WHEELS

The following models are available as wheels for Talpa FSR 2060.

Nonslip solid-rubber tires with a larger diameter to install on the robot Talpa FSR 2060 for large pipes.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
The camera extension raises the position of the connected camera on the milling robot Talpa FSR 2060 for a better view of the rubber hat on the coupled HutlinerPacker®.
Unlike milling work, chiseling allows whole slabs made from concrete or other mineral deposits to be chiseled out. A significant advantage of chiseling over milling is therefore the saving of time.
Where clean cuts are required: The angle grinder cuts metallic and mineral obstacles and expands the range of use of the sewer rehab robots.
System for the temporary or permanent closure of faulty and blind connections.
Monitored via camera and precise. All points of the sewer can be reached with the connector flushing device, thanks to the third movement axis of the robot arm – the axial rotation.
The lateral connection set plate creates the connection between the milling robot Talpa FSR 2060 and the HutlinerPacker® to transport this to its area of deployment in the sewer.
These special devices developed by Schwalm serve to press short liners, which have been saturated in synthetic resin, onto sockets and tear formations in the main pipe and hat seals into lateral connections.
The measuring level from Schwalm provides orientation help when performing precise work in the sewer pipe and helps to avoid any incorrect drilling.
If necessary to keep the Talpa FSR 2060 tooling mount in a fixed position, the fixing rotation gives you the option to fix the inserted tool at an angle of 45 degrees.
With the pipe sealing cushions, also known as straight bubbles, short liners can also be used in connection pipes in the lateral connection area.
To prevent the penetration of water, the robots and cameras are subject to overpressure. The hand pump with pressure gage can be used to control or adjust this.
All functions of the milling and sewer rehab robots and the cameras are controlled via the digital box.
The test box available from Schwalm allows customers to perform simple and fast troubleshooting exercises for the robots.
The accessories consist of a separate carriage which is inserted into the narrower base of the oval pipe and a management device for the upper, wider area.
