From an early age, we build a picture of a tractor being a large, rugged four wheeled agricultural vehicle.

Technically described as, ‘a motor vehicle with large rear wheels, used to pull heavy loads’, the term is now used in inspection equipment to describe a vehicle which carries inspection equipment on land.

With either four or six wheels and controlled and powered by an umbilical, their rugged design allows them to be used in pipes, sewers and tunnels as well as on land. Some tractors are designed to be explosion proof, allowing them safely to undertake inspections in hazardous areas. Fitted with zoom, pan and tilt cameras they offer a versatile inspection solution.

Most tractors have variable speed settings which allow them to travel further, faster and have an auto reverse function which allows them to be returned quickly to the inspection start point. Due to their compact nature some tractors are able to turn on their own axis, which further aids their versatility.
