TUnIS.arc
TUnIS.arc is an assistance system focussing on bending radii for small diameter pipe jacking and direct pipe projects.
Reason why

The bending radius holds significance in pipe jacking and direct pipe installation, defining the smallest curvature radius within which a pipe can flex without risking damage. To ensure that the TBM does not exceed the smallest curve radius, an automatic monitoring system is required that displays the radius to the machine operator in real-time to ensure precise control.
TUnIS.arc has been developed to provide the machine operator with most precise data to keep the TBM within the permitted radius range. Integrated into the TUnIS Navigation MT platform, the assistance system supplements the main navigation system with extensive data on the curve radius for precise tunnelling.
Benefits
- Compliance with documentation requirements
TUnIS.arc ensures that the documentation and the reporting meet the specifications of the customers. - Improved navigation precision
TUnIS.arc shows the driver the radius in real-time and thus offers the possibility to optimise the precision of the steering. - Conformity with the alignment
The automatic monitoring of the radii supports the driver to stay within the limits of the pipeline’s maximum bending radii. - Decrease in cost
Thanks to the system the monitoring of the radii is carried out automatically. Costs for surveying personnel can be saved.
