May 14, 2026
Precision Tracking for Modern HDD Operations
The UNIMAG X HDD Locator System is engineered to provide drilling crews with highly reliable underground tracking and accurate bore guidance. Whether your team is tackling urban utility installations, pipeline construction, or complex infrastructure projects, maintaining an efficient workflow is critical. The UNIMAG X delivers real-time drilling information, allowing operators to confidently monitor the drill head position and make steering decisions in a wide range of challenging underground environments.
Performance and Range You Can Rely On
When it comes to telemetry, this system offers an impressive maximum range of up to 3,000 feet. It operates across 16 system frequencies (from 0.325 Hz to 41 kHz) with an accuracy of ±5%, ensuring you maintain a true and consistent bore path. Despite its rugged capabilities, the standalone receiver is remarkably easy to handle on the job site. Weighing in at just 8.5 lbs and measuring 29 x 9 x 13 inches, it combines a highly portable footprint with heavy-duty durability to keep crews moving without unnecessary fatigue.
Intuitive Technology and Operator Efficiency
At the center of the UNIMAG X experience is a high-visibility, 7-inch Android-based color touchscreen display. This IP65-waterproof monitor provides straightforward control and quick access to critical drilling data. Integrated, one-touch data logging allows operators to easily review rod-by-rod bore data, analyze drilling charts, and properly document utility crossings for compliance and project reporting. Powered by a rechargeable 12.5V lithium battery, the system delivers up to 50 hours of continuous battery life, minimizing daily downtime and keeping your projects on schedule.
