This project has presented challenges for others, but our upgraded AXIS machines, now equipped with the latest AdaptX tooling, are powering through the work with unmatched efficiency. Our pilot 350mm and ream to 530mm method allows our team to accurately assess geotechnical conditions — in this case highly abrasive sandstone coupled with water-saturated ground — ensuring we provide effective solutions rather than settling for less-than-ideal outcomes. Backed by locally manufactured goods at Bournedrill, our approach not only reduces lead times but also supports the local economy. At OptionX Group, we’re proud to keep opportunities and employment in Australia, delivering world-class results with all-Australian innovation. #Microtunnelling #Infrastructure #EdgeUnderground #AustralianMade #Innovation

The world is just starting to embrace the power of vacuum microtunnelling. It’s mind blowing what is possible with AdaptX
Vacuum technology has been used successfully in microtunnelling projects in Australia for many years but has not previously been recognised in official definitions. In September 2024, the ISTT - International Society for Trenchless Technology formally included vacuum technology in its definition of microtunnelling – a change that follows efforts by Edge Underground Founder and CEO of OptionX Group, Stuart Harrison, in collaboration with the ISTT and the Japanese Society for Trenchless Technology (JSTT), to bring clarity to this issue. So what does this mean for utilities? We went straight to the source and asked Mr Harrison himself.

Using an AdaptX system makes light work of hard rock.
AdaptX drills small diameter bores through rock at record speeds! Traditional methods slow you down, but AdaptX is built for efficiency—cutting through the hardest conditions with ease. 🔹 Faster timelines 🔹 Lower costs 🔹 Proven results (And if larger bores are needed, AdaptX can handle that too!) #VacuumRevolution #TrenchlessTechnology #Innovation #Microtunnelling
