SBU DIVISION Metric Version DOUBLE SHIELD TBM (SBU-DS) The Double Shield TBM (SBU-DS) is ideal for long tunnels (up to 3 km) without intermediate access. The SBU-DS is a manned-entry, hard rock tunnel boring machine. The machine is used in conjunction with a single-track back-up system for auxiliary functions. In unstable ground, the SBU-DS can erect liner within the tail skin, while in stable ground the machine can be used without lining. Muck is removed using muck trains with conveyor-loading muck skips. SBU-DS APPLICATIONS • Long tunnels with no intermediate access • Line- and grade-sensitive tunnelling • Bore lengths up to 3,000+ m GUIDED BORING The SBU-DS can be steered throughout the drive using hydraulic stabilizer pads and articulation cylinders. Line and grade accuracy is continuously monitored with a laser targeting system. TUNNELLING WITH NO LIMITATIONS Not just for utility crossings, the SBU-DS can bore entire tunnels in much harder rock than other SBU Division products. A ring bearing and bull gear drive allow for larger diameter 17 inch disc cutters to be used, with greater thrust and higher torque. The machine is capable of boring in rock of 300 MPa UCS or higher over long distances. AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE OR LEASE
