Double Shield Tunnel Boring Machine Torque Cylinder

Double Shield Tunnel Boring Machine Torque Cylinder Specifications

The torque cylinder is an essential element of the double shield tunnel boring machine. Its primary function is to produce the necessary power to rotate the cutterhead and break the rock or soil in front of the machine. This cylinder must withstand the high loads and challenging environmental conditions typical of tunneling operations. Double shield tunnel boring machines are used to excavate tunnels in various ground conditions, including hard rock, soft rock, and mixed ground. The torque cylinder should be adaptable to these diverse conditions and capable of delivering the required torque to the cutterhead, regardless of the excavated material type.

Key Features of Double Shield TBM Torque Cylinders

• High torque output: Double shield TBMs demand significant torque to rotate the cutterhead, and the torque cylinders must provide this output.
• Durability: Torque cylinders endure considerable wear and tear, necessitating construction from robust materials and techniques.
• Reliability: Torque cylinders must be dependable and operate consistently, even in the rigorous conditions of a tunnel.
• Maintainability: Torque cylinders should facilitate easy maintenance and repair.
