Laser Pipe Profiling
Laser Pipe Profiling Gold Coast, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast & Beyond
Drain Tech Australia provides laser pipe profiling services across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast and beyond.
Laser pipe profiling is used with CCTV inspection equipment to measure the internal shape, deformation and ovality of stormwater, sewer and drainage pipelines.
The system captures both visual footage and measurable profile data, helping identify deflection, flattening and shape changes that may not be clear from standard CCTV footage alone.
Laser pipe profiling is used to measure the internal shape, deformation and ovality of stormwater, sewer and drainage pipelines. The system works alongside CCTV inspection equipment to capture both visual footage and measurable pipe profile data during the same inspection.
This allows pipe condition, internal shape, deformation, deflection and profile changes to be reviewed more accurately than standard CCTV footage alone.
Laser pipe profiling can assist with condition assessment, construction verification, rehabilitation planning and asset management. It is useful where pipe diameter, ovality, deformation, deflection or internal shape changes need to be reviewed in more detail.
Single-point profile scans can also be completed during an inspection to verify pipe size or deformation at a specific location within the asset.
Laser profiling is available for suitable stormwater, sewer and drainage pipes between 150mm and 1800mm. The collected data helps asset owners, engineers and contractors make informed decisions about remaining asset life, flow capacity, repair requirements and future maintenance planning.

What Laser Pipe Profiling Is Used For
Laser pipe profiling is used to measure the internal shape and profile of a pipeline, helping identify deformation, ovality, deflection, flattening and changes in pipe geometry.
This provides additional measurement information beyond standard CCTV footage and can assist with understanding the structural condition and serviceability of the asset.
How the Profile Is Captured
The laser profiling equipment is used with CCTV inspection technology to capture pipe shape data as the camera travels through the asset.
The laser projects a profile onto the internal pipe wall, allowing changes in the pipe shape to be measured and recorded as part of the inspection process.
What the Report Includes
The final report can include CCTV inspection information, laser profile data, deformation measurements, ovality results, supporting images, observations and condition notes where required.
Reports can be tailored to suit council, civil, engineering, asset management, rehabilitation or project handover requirements.
When Laser Profiling Is the Best Option
Laser profiling is best suited when visual CCTV inspection alone does not provide enough information about pipe shape, deformation or structural movement.
It is commonly used for large diameter assets, flexible pipes, suspected deformation, post-construction verification, rehabilitation planning and condition assessment programs.
