Real-time analytics, reporting
and GPS location of TBMs
Tunnel Data Management System
TBM OPERATING PARAMETERS
Surveying panel
Tunnel Track can also manage the data coming from any guidance system (PPS, VMT, TACS, CREG, CRCHI, ecc.). This component will help you visualize the guidance data of the TBM.
These parameters are:
- horizontal and vertical deviation of the shield;
- vertical and horizontal inclination of the shield;
- pitch and roll angle of the shield.
Pressure cells in the bulk chamber
This feature allows to visually check in real time the pressure values inside the bulk chamber, thanks to a personalized visualization.
Thrust cylinders groups
This panel will let you understand the pressure exerted by the different thrust groups, their relative thrust, their extension and finally the total thrust exerted by the machine.
Articulation groups
When present, it will be possible to monitor the pressure values and the extension values of each articulation group.
General parameters of the TBM
This panel will help you monitor the main parameters of the TBM, such as pressure values in the bulk chamber, along the screw conveyor.
TBM’s position
This feature will help you understand the position of the TBM along the theoretical alignment of the tunnel.
BIG DATA ANALISIS
Real-time graphs
When needed, it will be possible to plot every single parameter of the machine. This graph will automatically reload every 5 seconds, adding the new data.
Time series graphs
Frequently in tunnelling there is the need to understand the threshold of a certain parameter during a certain range of installed ring. Thanks to a personalized menu, you will be able to choose the range of rings that you want to study.
Condensed parameters
When studying the advancement of the TBM, it is preferable to plot the mean values in function of the ring number. Tunnel Track will give you the possibility to plot every parameter for your analysis.
REPORTING
Thanks to our knowledge in the tunnelling sector, we can make any type of report you will need.
Our portfolio ranges from ring reports, daily and weekly reports to shift reports. All the reports are structured in agreement with the client, compiled automatically and then can be distributed to different teams, according to your needs.
Shift report
This report is generated semi-automatically. The activities of the TBM are detected and categorized by our system and they will ease your work.
Ring report
This type of report is automatically generated every ring cycle. It contains all the information needed in order to easily understand the TBM’s performance during every ring cycle.
Daily report
This report will give you all the informations related to the daily production of the TBM. This document might be used to compile the quality control plan document.
Weekly report
It gives an overview on the weekly production of the TBM. The user will only have to insert inside our system the number of work hours per week and then the report will automatically compile itself.
Planar development of the installed rings
Tunnel Track generates automatically the As-Built of the tunnel. The so created As-Built is completely browsable and can be also downloaded as a pdf document, choosing the range of rings.
