Angel Descent
The need for accurate and undisturbed core samples has led to the development of this new coring method with controlled penetration speed, in order to obtain sediment samples with more accurate outcomes. Based on the water depth, this methodology, called "Angel Descent",

The newly-designed Carma® Piston Corer has been conceived to retrieve cores of large diameter (100 mm) up to 30 m long, essential for studies of sedimentary basins characterized by a large thickness of fine sediment and to sample ancient stratigraphic layers.

In recent months Carmacoring has created a new controlled handling system, fast and safe for long corers of up to 30 meters. The new launching system is made up of reticular modules of triangular sections 5 meters long each (easily stored

Carma® Corer SW-104 is a light corer, 100 Kg maximum, designed with the purpose of recovering cores of clayey or slightly sandy sediments. It is ideal for marine and lacustrine environments where studies of pollution, eutrophication, nutrient and metal interface fluxes, interstitial
read moreGravity Corer
This is an instrument of great strength and easy to use, suitable for coring a seafloor characterised by sediment with different lithological compositions, even compact or soft cemented. Main components of Gravity Corer: Head: consisting of a cylindrical lead mass with a variable
read moreLight Box Corer
This is an instrument intended for the recovery of superficial samples of the seabed which are then held in a metal box. The sample collected is characterized by a low rate of disturbance to the sedimentary structure and includes the bottom
read moreCylindrical Dredge
This instrument has been utilised since the seventies to tear up and collect rock samples, concretion and calcrete from slope outcroppings. The dredge is composed of a large thick iron cylinder: 500 mm in diameter and 1200 mm in length, 250 Kg
