Managing Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) performance is crucial for ensuring efficient, cost-effective, and on-schedule tunnelling operations. The TBM Data Management tool in DAARWIN provides a comprehensive solution to integrate TBM machine performance with real-time monitoring, advanced geotechnical analysis, and predictive modelling.
By combining TBM performance data—such as thrust, torque, or revolutions —with geotechnical parameters from design, DAARWIN enables the real-time calibration of ground parameters at the ring level. This ensures accurate prediction of TBM advance rates, facilitates the early detection of ground anomalies, and helps optimise excavation strategies.
Through its intuitive, cloud-based interface, DAARWIN centralises all TBM-related data, allowing operators and engineers to monitor progress, analyse trends, and address incidences effectively. This dynamic approach empowers teams to make data-driven decisions, improve TBM performance, and mitigate geological and operational risks.
