The Small-Diameter Hydraulic Pipe Jacking Project in Penang, Malaysia

The 450mm hydraulic project in Penang, Malaysia encountered difficulties. The small diameter equipment was extremely difficult to control, so the customer asked Tangxing headquarters for support. After receiving the customer's request, Tangxing Technology Service Team responded immediately and set off to Penang overnight to solve the problem.

The construction site faced numerous challenges, such as the difficulty of operating the small 450mm hydraulic machine head and steering challenges. To resolve the customer's issues, Tangxing Technology promptly dispatched a 4-person service team to the Penang site for guidance, successfully resolving the problem. Ultimately, the cutter head of Tangxing Technology's 450mm small-diameter hydraulic pipe jacking machine broke through the ground, marking the successful completion of the small-diameter hydraulic pipe jacking project in Penang, Malaysia.

The main challenge of this construction project in Penang was the small diameter. Additionally, the shallow soil cover with groundwater and sand layers required very strict axis control. Vertical and horizontal deviations had to be controlled within 2 centimeters. We adopted the principle of slurry balance, maintaining chamber pressure balance by managing water intake and mud discharge. By precisely controlling the rotation speed and torque of the cutter head with minimal steering adjustments, we maintained the correct posture of our machine head, ensuring the smooth completion of the project.

The Tangxing Technology Service Team always prioritizes solving customer problems. Despite the 35-degree high temperatures and challenging construction environment, nothing could stop the Tangxing Service Team from serving our customers. In the days to come, Tangxing Service Team will always provide customers with the best service.
