Soft Ground LOVAT TBMs consist of a Cuttinghead, Forward Shell, Stationary
Shell, Trailing Shield. When the tunnel face does not require a continuous and
pressure balanced support, the TBM is operated in ‘Open Mode’. The face is
mechanically supported by the cuttinghead while the flood control doors regulate
muck flow from the face to the cuttinghead chamber. The excavated muck is
rapidly extracted by the belt conveyor.
LOVAT Soft Ground Non-Pressurised TBMs can be used to install a variety of
Tunnel linings including:
- bolted segments
- Rib & Lagging
- Pipe (concrete, steel, Hobas©)
