Double Shield Tunnel Boring Machine Main Thrust Cylinder

The main thrust cylinder is the main propelling component of the double shield TBM, which is responsible for providing the forward thrust of TBM. The cylinder has large thrust and stable performance, which can ensure the efficient and stable operation of the TBM in the process of tunneling. The bore and stroke of the main push cylinder are usually large to adapt to the needs of different digging depths and speeds. The internal structure and seals are optimized to reduce friction and leakage, increasing the efficiency and longevity of the cylinder.
