To realize further cost cut of machine and construction, we, together with Japan Institute of Wastewater Engineering Technology and machine manufacturer, started study in 1998 and developed jack-driven J-DPLEX as opposed to DPLEX driven by combination of motor and gear. J-DPLEX is developed by Daiho and successfuly applied to sewage tunnel project for the first time in the world.

|
|
Technical Aspect & Advantages: |
|
1) |
Flexible cutting section shapes: round, square, oval, rectangular, horse
shoe etc. (same as DPLEX) |
|
2) |
Required cutter torque is smaller than conventional type and thus energy
saving |
|
3) |
Long distance continuous excavation without changing bit |
|
4) |
Easier chemical injection for ground stabilization from machine inside |
|
5) |
Price is lower than other conventional type incl. DPLEX |
|
6) |
Machine length is smaller than other conventional type enabling smaller
shaft |
|
7) |
Power consumption for cutter drive is smaller than conventional type by
10~30%. |
|
8) |
Easier transportation, assembly, disassembly and operation |
|
 |
 |
Hydraulic jack's expansion & contraction
movement is changed into rotation
movement by crank. Rotation force is
transmitted to each driving axis through
connection disc.
|
|
|
 |
|
Jack drive system is superior in minimized power consumption and less by-products as well. |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Due to reduced power consumption, shorter and compact machine, it became possible to reduce total construction cost substantially. |
