01 Project Overview

The Shenzhen-Huizhou Intercity Railway is a vital component of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area network. Spanning 88.8 kilometers from Shenzhen Bao’an Airport to Huizhou Daya Bay, it is a key project for promoting transportation interconnection and metropolitan integration.

02 Technical Innovation & Support

Sunward TBM Technical Parameters

The project utilized two dual-mode shield machines with a diameter of 9,130 mm to navigate 6,165.4 meters of complex terrain.

Overcoming Project Difficulties:

  • Complex Risk Sources: The TBMs successfully passed under building groups, active railways (Pingyan, Hangzhou-Shenzhen), interchanges, and tunnels.
  • Geological Mutations: Customized designs and intelligent monitoring systems ensured safety despite high tool wear rates and poor roof stability.
  • Expert Service: Sunward’s after-sales team provided professional technical support, optimizing equipment performance in real-time.
