Feritech holds a large stock of GOMEX (modified GreyO’Hara) types in 0.1m² , 0.25m² and 0.5m² variants for sale and also rental with the option of an operator. We can also build other sizes to order.
The stainless steel box has variable ballast and penetration limits to ensure no over penetration
The GOMEX box corers have been designed to facilitate the use of on deck T-bar testing systems.
Our mechanism and stainless steel doors are open during deployment therefore minimising the bow wave effect and yield the least disturbed sample of instruments in this class, even in extremely fine sediments.
The Box Corer is easily deployed from the supplied deck stand and the mechanical deployment system automatically triggers when the instrument touches down on the seabed.
These systems can be deployed using an A frame or when this is not available Feritech offer a LARS system. we also have an array of high speed deep water winches available.
Whatever the challenge, you can count on us to meet your needs on time, safely, and expertly. That's our promise.
