Reason why


The purpose of TUnIS.wing detect is to support quality assurance in tunnel construction by reliably monitoring the side wing positions of tunnel shutters with reference to the block axis, based on the positioning data in TUnIS Positioning Shutter.

Particularly with spindle-adjusted side wings and curved alignments, high concrete pressure can cause deformation or unwanted positional changes. Continuous, traceable measurement data of the side wings’ position helps identify instability or deviations from the specified inner lining profile at an early stage, reducing the risk of costly corrective work. Compared with time-consuming manual surveying, automated monitoring provides reliable data throughout pouring and curing while enabling consistent, BIM-compliant documentation.

Reliable measurement data on side wing behaviour during pouring and curing is therefore essential for both spindle-adjusted and bolted side wings.

Benefits


  • Near real-time measurement
    During shutter positioning the system provides continuous information about the side wing positions relative to the machine axis
  • Automatic data capture
    Where side wing surveying is mandatory, TUnIS.wing detect enables automatic data capturewithout additional surveying effort
  • Minimised rework
    With TUnIS.wing detect, compliance with the specified inner lining profile can be reliably verified and ensured. This helps reduce the need for costly and time-consuming rework
  • Automation based on EDM technology
    The system is based on EDM technology. It automates the process, generates structured documentation automatically, enhances usability, and requires minimal installation effort, as EDMs only need to be installed once
  • Damage prevention
    Damage to the shutter and its upper and lower side wing components can be avoided
  • Reliable Compliance
    Client and designer requirements can be met more easily and reliably.
  • Automatic Documentation
    Integrated automatic documentation meets the growing demand for traceable project data.
  • Consistent Data
    Simultaneous recording of vault shutter and side wing data ensures consistency and provides clear guidance for operators.
  • High Accuracy
    Measurement accuracy of ±1.5 mm helps ensure compliance with specified tolerances.
  • Future Insights
    Stored data can be used for future analyses and visualisations.
  • Intuitive Operation
    A user-friendly tablet interface provides clear access to all information and easy switching between views
