HERRENKNECHT E-Power Pipe Nominated for bauma Innovation Award 2019

摘要

E-Power Pipe is a trenchless method for the economic and environmentally friendly installation of underground cables. The new development from Herrenknecht has been nominated for the bauma Innovation Award 2019 in the "Machine" category. The innovative procedure closes a technical gap because it allows small diameter drives with 10 times greater lengths, shallower depths as well as high precision and speed. With E-Power Pipe, Herrenknecht has developed a new method to quickly and securely install small-diameter cable protection pipes underground over long distances of more than a kilometer. The innovative method has purposefully modified and further developed proven drilling technologies so that in the future, underground cables can be installed trenchlessly and close to the surface at a depth of between two and four meters with minimal intervention in the landscape.
