Customer Testimonials
Inuktun is a model for other sales and service companies. The Microtracs™ we purchased from you are nigh-indestructible and easy to service. The amount of power that is packed into that size of ROV transport system surprises all of our clients. The overall design is excellent, incorporating versatility and dependability with an attractive and practical industrial design. We are a service company, and our equipment is put through paces daily that pushes the envelope of the design. Without a company like Inuktun, it would be difficult to stay in business providing the level of service that our clients demand. Warren TessariManager/Senior Technician RVT Dept.Maverick Inspection Ltd.AlbertaCanada I just wanted to take a moment and tell you how pleased we are with the Versatrax unit we recently purchased. The unit arrived, was unpacked, tested, repackaged and sent out on a 60 day operation. It performed flawlessly and the job was successful. Again, thanks to Inuktun`s reponse to our request and be assured that if I am ever asked for crawler ROV recommendations, your company`s name will be our first. William F. Aichele, General ManagerInshore Divers)Pittsburg, CAUSA We just wanted to thank you for your excellent work on our Internal Pipeline Nondestructive Testing System (IPNS). After a thorough bid evaluation process, we selected Inuktun as one of the contractors because of your demonstrated success in building reliable and heavy duty tethered transport systems for various types of cameras and sensors. Drew Kelly, Project ManagerDan Kerr, Technical ManagerPacific Gas and Electric CompanySan RamonCAUSA It is with great pleasure we announce the completion of inspection by making full use of Inuktun`s ROVs and crawler vehicles. These products have contributed much in a remote, deep and narrow worksite where no other method is available. We believe that the high performance comes from your excellent design and fine manufacturing combining mechanical, electrical and optical components in a compact modular concept. Masataka Owada, ManagerTakashi Kikuchi, Research ScientistHiroshi Endou, Senior EngineerMechatraonics System Center Nuclear Systems Division, Power & Industrial SystemsHitachi Ltd.Japan My name is Ken Peligren and I am the owner and operator of Pipe Eye Video Inspections and Services Ltd. I have been involved in the sewer and water pipe inspections industry since 1995. Since day one we have utilized Inuktun`s camera equipment on all of our job sites. We currently use a couple of Inuktun camera systems in our regional and international pipe inspections companies, the VLR300 and the VLR150. We have successfully completed a number of complicated jobs using these systems. In 2002, we completed a 1,967 lineal meter sanitary trunk inspection for the Regional District of Nanaimo using the VLR300 camera system. This was the longest run completed to that date for Pipe Eye Video Inspections and it involved only one access point. It would have been impossible to complete with out Inuktun`s specialized equipment. Another challenge was completing a job that required taking the system 300 meters down a vertical embankment, and in and out of six different manholes on both vertical and horizontal runs. Without the versatile capabilities of the VLR150, it would not have been possible to complete this inspection. Another memorable inspection was completed for the Greater Vancouver Regional District. Due to the adaptability of the Inuktun VLR150 system, we were able to weigh the camera down and situate it so that we could view the working capabilities of the butterfly valves inside a water distribution line. Inuktun has been there to support Pipe Eye Video since the beginning, supplying us with cutting edge technology and professional technical support. Inuktun`s specialized equipment has enabled us to overcome any challenge that we have come across to date. Ken PeligrenPresidentPipe Eye Video Inspections and Services Ltd.Pipe Eye International Inc.
