SECA gives Trenchless Australasia an exclusive look at what it will be spotlighting at No-Dig Down Under 2025.
SECA is one of Australia’s leading suppliers of equipment for the inspection, cleaning, testing and rehabilitation of pipes, sewers and drains. The company has forged its reputation as a go-to trenchless partner over the course of almost 60 years.
With a long-standing history of providing innovative technologies for pipe asset management, SECA serves a diverse clientele, from councils to water authorities to contractors.
The company will be showing off its range of inspection solutions at September’s No-Dig Down Under in Melbourne, the Southern Hemisphere’s only large-scale conference and exhibition dedicated to trenchless technology.
“This year we’re placing a strong focus on our inspection technology,” SECA told Trenchless Australasia.
“We offer a wide range of cutting-edge inspection cameras that are transforming how inspections are conducted – from AI [artificial intelligence]-powered access hole scanners generating 3D models to modular crawler systems available in 19 different configurations to suit virtually any pipeline environment.
“We’re also spotlighting WinCan Web, our asset management software that seamlessly integrates with our inspection systems, streamlining reporting and data management for councils, utilities and contractors alike.”
A look behind the curtains
SECA’s flagship asset management software, WinCan Web allows users to collect pipe inspection data, organise it into a database, and generate inspection reports that graphically display the pipe and its defects.
Pipeline inspections traditionally involve a technician operating a CCTV crawler or push camera, stopping at defects, and manually coding observations. But thanks to WinCan Web, this footage can be scanned using AI that automatically identifies defects with an accuracy rate of 70–90 per cent, reducing the need for extensive manual input.
“By automating defect identification and simplifying workflows, WinCan Web allows operators and engineers to focus on what matters most – making informed decisions and delivering high-quality reports,” SECA said.
The software is a perfect pairing for inspection tools like the Envirosight Quickview 360, which SECA will also be spotlighting at No-Dig Down Under.
Quickview 360 combines the manoeuvrability of a pole camera with the in-depth data capture and reporting of cloud technology. Using AI-supported defect coding and 3D modelling, Quickview is able to conduct manhole assessments in just five minutes. The results can be sent directly to the cloud via WinCan mobile app for streamlined data handling.
SECA’s VC500 controller will also make an appearance at the exhibition. Used in conjunction with the ROVION sewer crawler and SECA’s range of inspection cameras, the VC500 is making sewer inspections easier than ever.
The controller is packed with tools to measure pipe diameter, bends, cracks, obstructions, flow levels, lateral dimensions, angles and inclinations. And just like the rest of SECA’s suite of inspection tools, the VC500 can wirelessly upload results to the WinCan Web.
These features come packaged in one well-crafted controller, with an intuitive interface and joysticks for smooth crawler and camera movements.
These are just a handful of the many trenchless solutions that SECA will be showcasing at No-Dig Down Under.
“With our expert knowledge, service and support for over 50 years, we are the trenchless industry’s partner in productivity,” SECA said. “We offer a one-stop shop for all business needs – from equipment, service and support right through to training.
“We look forward to engaging with the wider industry at this year’s No-Dig Down Under and sharing our solutions with the wider industry.”
