How Does MasterRoc ABR 5 Work?

MasterRoc ABR 5 is specifically designed to reduce abrasion and dust for tunnel boring machines operating in hard rock mode. It is used to reduce abrasive wear to the cutting tools and to substantially reduce dust formation during excavation as well as cutter head clogging.

What Are the Unique Features of MasterRoc ABR 5?

MasterRoc ABR 5 reduces abrasive wear for cutting tools, provides better cooling of the cutter head, improves rubber seal durability, and extends the life of the cutter bearing.

What Are the Benefits of MasterRoc ABR 5?

• Effective reduction of dust formation, leading to a considerably improved working environment for TBM personnel

• Reduced TBM downtime due to less frequent cutter changes, resulting in more time available for excavation

• Improved transfer of the muck from the cutter head, reducing the risk of blockage, and keeping the cutter discs and cutter head area cleaner, making maintenance easier and reducing cutter disc changing time

• Overall cost savings due to higher monthly advance rates and lower maintenance costs
