It is also necessary to compare its economics with drilling and blasting technique.  Various factors contributes to the performance of tunnel boring machine separations –
–    Intact rock property like the tensile strength of the rock and uniaxial compressive strength.
–    Property of rock mass- in cases of foliated or bedded ground, direction of foliation guides the performance of tunnel boring machine separations.
–    Cutter geometry- cutter on the cutter head of the machine transmit the energy generated by the engine into the earth causing fragmentation. Thus it is important that the shape and angle of the cutter is adjusted so that adequate amount of energy is transferred and desirable penetration is attained in the ground.
–    Cutting geometry
–    Machine specifications
–    Voltage
–    Penetration and advancement rate
Performance of tunnel boring machine separation system can be calculated based on the voltage provided by the mine power distribution system. A basic computer load flow program is used to calculate the voltage.

Calculated voltage and measured voltages are then compared. Torque output is calculated with help this voltage input. Curve of speed horsepower versus current is drawn and compared to motor test data.

This results are then used to make adjustments in simplified motor model. With these information a torque verse distance curve can be made which will help to summarize the tunnel boring machine separations performance. By this way, the effects of the change in transformer taps, source of voltage, cable size and various other factors can be evaluated.

Penetration and advancement rates are essential to evaluate the performance of the TBM slurry separation system . Penetration rate is excavated distance during the excavation phase divided by the time. Advancement rate is the actual excavating distance to the total time which also accounts the total downtime of the machine maintenance, failure of the tunnel and machine breakdown.

Microtunnelling Mud System of Kosun Manufaturer for Sale

Microtunnelling Mud System

The micro-tunneling system is a remote control method for driving concrete, steel and CTP pipes under the surface. The system is mainly used in major roads, railways, subway lines, airports and river access areas; open excavation risk areas. In these areas, drinking water, sewage, natural gas, connected tunnels and similar works can be carried out by our miniature tunneling machines with diameters between 800mm and 3000mm.

In the micro-piping system constructed by pipeline laying, micro-tunneling tunneling and impact equipment automatically promote the pipeline in the mining area. When the cutting head is pushed by the hydraulic thrust system, once there is enough space to push the other pipe, connect the new pipe; the thrust program continues. The micro-tunnel machine distributes the soil by cutting and grinding the drill bit, and then the system injects pressurized water to make the material a liquid slurry. The liquid slurry is absorbed by the discharge pump present in the system and is brought into a discharge tank placed on the surface.
