Title:

A Boring Machine for Making Underground Bores under Trenchless Technology

Value Proposition:

The developed boring machine is suitable for making bores under the ground (roads/ buildings) for installing services like electric cables, drainage pipes, etc. without disturbing the surface structures and hinderance to traffic.

Summary Application:

The developed boring machine is suitable for making bores under the ground (roads/ buildings) for installing services like electric cables, drainage pipes, etc. without disturbing the surface structures. The machine can bore up to 25 m length long, 200 mm dia bores at a depth of 1-2m from the surface.

Advantages:

• Requires a small pit on the road side

• Light in weight and portable machine

• Cost-effective and can be used by small/middle-class contractors

• Low maintenance cost

• Can work on both wet and dry boring
