    摘要: In one aspect, the present invention relates to a mobile plant for orienting a tool with respect to a hole, the plant comprising: an arm assembly for supporting a tool, the tool being adapted to be lowered into the hole; a primary sensor for sensing the geographical location of the tool; and a secondary sensor for sensing the location and/or orientation of the hole; wherein the plant is adapted to adjust the position of the tool supported by the arm assembly based on the geographical location sensed by the primary sensor and the location and/or orientation sensed by the secondary sensor, to thereby align the tool supported by the arm assembly with the hole. In other aspects the present invention relates to a plant, to methods of using the plant, and to a boom arm assembly.
