MARKET INTRODUCTION
The tunnel boring machine (TBM) is an alternative to drilling and blasting methods used for tunnel excavations with circular cross-sections across different ground surfaces. TBM is tube-shaped with a rotating disk at the front. The disk is provided with cutting teeth to shear through rocky surfaces. TBM is also used for sewers, mining, hydroelectric stations, and other micro-tunneling applications. TBM offers multiple advantages over conventional drilling and blasting methods such as reduced noise levels and precise cutting operations.
