Installation Services

The transport of large- and small-diameter machines and components or delivery to remote jobsites that are difficult to access are among the first logistical challenges of a tunnelling project. All necessary tools and machine components, the entire jobsite equipment and qualified staff for the assembly and commissioning must be available – at the right time and at the right place. From the welding equipment to the gantry crane, from the machine drivers to the metalworkers, from environmental compliance to the removal logistics – everything must be planned minutely and ready for use.

Herrenknecht can support the setup and logistics of the tunnel boring machine in close coordination with those responsible on site. On request, the service package includes the complete project management, covering everything from process planning for delivery from the factory to the start of tunnelling work on the jobsite. This covers both instructions for the customers’ personnel at the jobsite and the execution of work. We offer the necessary equipment such as cranes or (special) tools for sale or rent.

This holistic service concept has the potential to optimize interfaces and save the customer time, work and costs. No matter what service for the TBM or equipment is required.
