Abstract
2025 Year 7 Moon 15 On the day, the “...”, developed by China Railway Equipment, was... Funes The “earth-pressure balanced dual-mode tunnel boring machine” has successfully started operations on the Fortezza railway tunnel project in Italy, marking the official entry of the project into the TBM construction phase.
The Fortezza Railway Tunnel Project is a twin-bore, single-track high-speed railway tunnel. Each bore is excavated using a single set of equipment, and the total excavation length reaches— 16.13 kilometer, with a minimum turning radius of only 280 Mi has placed higher demands on the tunnel boring machine's ability to excavate in small-radius curves.
In response to the project’s engineering characteristics—long distances and small curve radii—as well as its geological conditions, the R&D team of China Railway Equipment has custom-designed... “ Funes "Double-mode tunneling machine," this equipment has an excavation diameter of... 9.68 Meter, whole machine length 144 Rice, total weight approximately 2000 Ton.
It is reported that, once completed and put into operation, the Fortezza railway tunnel project in Italy will become a vital rail link connecting Verona and Fortezza in Italy, significantly enhancing the efficiency and capacity of road transportation in Fortezza and playing a positive role in promoting local economic development.
