TMG-30 Attitude Sensing System

Optimal machine operation based on gyrocompass attitude navigational information

In excavation of complicated and interconnected underground tunnels for subways, water lines, and communication and power lines, accuracy in following plan lines is vital. Development of the new TMG-30 Series attitude sensing system for tunnel boring machinery is based on our experience on more than 1800 site applications and our expertise in advanced technology. The System's precision gyrocompass and servo-inclinometer offer real-time detection of azimuth angle, pitch & roll with stable attitude readouts. The small, lightweight and high precision, TMG-30 Series is a valuable aid in tunnel excavations, both large and small.

Features

• Small size, high accuracy
  Compared to our previous model, the sensor unit is approx. 30% smaller and the controller and power supply are approx. 70% smaller. Static accuracy is ± 0.05 deg.

• Real-time monitoring of machinery attitude
  Azimuth angle and pitch & roll can be displayed in real time, for continuous monitoring and accurate control of machinery movement.

• Efficiency
  Unlike laser and lightwave systems, there is no need for time-wasting resetting.

• Backup battery
  The backup battery assures continuous operation even in the event of a power supply failure.

• Monitoring
  With the easy-to-read monitor, communication errors, and other information is at your fingertips.

• System expansion
  Efficient excavation and accurate monitoring can be enhanced in combination with the TL300 Series Level sensing System and the Tellus Series Automated Position & Attitude-sensing System.
