[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, underground pipelines, as an important part of urban infrastructure, have become increasingly important for maintenance and repair. However, traditional pipeline repair methods usually require large-scale excavation, with long construction periods, high costs, and are likely to have negative impacts on traffic, the environment, and surrounding facilities. Therefore, trenchless pipeline repair technology has been widely used in recent years, among which UV-CIPP (Ultraviolet Cured-in-Place Pipe) has become one of the mainstream technologies in the field of trenchless repair due to its high efficiency, environmental protection, and low interference.
[0003] UV curing repair uses special resin materials, which are exposed to ultraviolet light by robots, so that the materials can be quickly cured inside the pipe, forming a new lining structure to restore or enhance the strength of the pipe. This method avoids tedious excavation and replacement processes, greatly reducing the impact of construction on the environment. However, the internal defects of the pipeline are complex and diverse, such as cracks, corrosion, perforations and blockages, which are widely distributed and have great differences in characteristics. Therefore, traditional repair methods still face many challenges in how to accurately repair the target area, optimize the repair efficiency and ensure the quality of the repair.
