A tunnel boring machine (TBM), also known as a mole or worm, is a specialized piece of tunnel boring equipment designed to excavate round tunnels through soil and rock. I rely on tunnel boring machines for tunnel projects because they feature a spinning cutterhead, a protective shield, and systems that ensure tunnel stability. These machines use hydraulic jacks, conveyor belts, and install tunnel lining as they advance, making the tunneling process safer and more efficient. According to civil engineering resources, the tunnel boring machine is essential for tunnel construction and can operate in various ground conditions. For challenging projects, I often choose a slurry balance tunnel boring machine or a double shield tunnel boring machine. NHI offers a...
