CUES is the world’s leading manufacturer of closed circuit television video (CCTV) pipeline inspection systems, joint sealing solutions, pipe profiling equipment, and asset inspection/decision support software. For over 58 years, CUES has provided innovative pipeline inspection technology and solutions to enable accurate condition assessment and proactive maintenance programs for buried infrastructure.
CUES continues to lead the industry by designing and manufacturing products for pipe inspection, profiling, rehabilitation, and data acquisition right here in the USA, with bi-directional interfaces to ESRI ArcGIS and asset management software such as Hansen, Azteca Cityworks, and others. CUES’ GraniteNet Software provides a strong foundation for decision-making to establish priorities for pipeline inspection, rehabilitation, or replacement.
Manhole inspection systems, chemical grouting systems for mainline and lateral pipe joints, lateral-reinstatement cutting systems, and advanced sonar, lidar, and laser profiling systems are also available from the industry’s infrastructure experts at CUES!
CUES is proud to introduce the Currahee Cutters. These cutters are specifically designed to reinstate wastewater service laterals, remove protruding taps, and brush-finish existing cuts. The cutters function in a range of 5.25" through 36" pipe, are equally effective in CIPP or fold and form liners, and can be installed on a CUES K2 truck-mounted cutter system.
CUES also developed a new 1.9hp air motor for the small Currahee Cutter line to provide more power, increased productivity, and a smoother cut when operating in 6” - 12” relined pipe. Kits are available to retro-fit Currahee Cutters for use with Kangaroo air-motors and service kits can be purchased for regular maintenance intervals on existing motors. Contact CUES for a discussion and demonstration.
The SPiDER Scanner is the first wireless and color manhole inspection technology in a lightweight and compact form factor. The SPiDER is a scanner which can calculate its position in the manhole shaft by using its sensor data to measure its incremental motion instead of the payout cable. SPIDER weighs less than 30 pounds and can be hand carried to easements or other previously difficult to access sites. This wireless portability is possible because the processing computer and battery supply are built into the scanner.
The CUES C550c Hunter is mounted in a compact and rugged weatherproof enclosure that can fit into an ATV, van or pickup truck to access easements and hard-to-reach areas. Featuring the C550c controller, the Hunter is designed around the user, helping you to create survey reports more easily and efficiently. With a wide variety of manual and advanced powered drum options, wide choice of wheels and tires, powered and manual elevators and a cradle allow you to inspect pipes from relined 6” all the way up to 60”. Heavy duty welded lifting eyelets and forklift skids are provided for quick deployment to the host vehicle. Contact CUES for a discussion and demonstration!
The flexitrax C550c is designed around simplicity of operation. Ready to use in 30 seconds from powering on, it requires minimal training to operate, letting you concentrate on pipe inspection. A large 12.1”/307mm HD, daylight visible screen combined with full-size keyboard and dedicated function keys guide you through the survey process. Built in is a high capacity internal lithium-ion battery, providing power for up to a full day’s typical usage, and 128Gb of solid state memory.
The flexiprobe C540c system simplifies your operations by automatically creating a survey report, allowing you to concentrate on your inspection tasks. Share your reports quickly and easily via email or the Dropbox file sharing service.* Use GraniteNet software to integrate the CUES flexiprobe C540c to your asset inspection, decision support, and work management program.

Multi and Single Conductor II Wheeled Transporter
The Steerable Pipe Ranger II is a rugged and versatile robotic camera transporter designed to traverse silt, mud and debris commonly found in storm and sanitary sewers. The SPR II is designed with single-point wheel removal to facilitate speedy configuration changes for various pipe diameters and conditions.
The unit is designed to operate with all CUES inspection systems with up to 2000’ of single-conductor or multi-conductor cable to inspect 7” relined pipe through 72” diameter pipe. The unique built in two (2) speed transmission doubles the torque of the unit to produce maximum pulling power in large diameter pipe when the 10.5” diameter tires are installed.
The steerable Compact Pipe Ranger (CPR) camera transporter can traverse up to 1200' under normal pipe conditions to inspect 6" relined pipe through 30" diameter pipe and larger. When assembled with the CUES OZIII zoom pan and tilt camera, the compact length enables the unit to negotiate most difficult entry conditions and standard sweeps.
The superior pulling power of the CPR, combined with the optics and directional lighting of the compact OZ III zoom pan and tilt camera (with the ability to rotate in a 4" circle), creates video inspection quality that's unsurpassed in the industry. Multiple wheel sets are available to maximize bottom-clearance, traction, and optimum camera position. Ease of operation is accomplished with one joystick control for all transporter and camera movements. A variable "cruise control" setting is also available for transporter speed for hands-off operation.
