Cross passages in underground tunnels provide a unique challenge for construction crews. Compact, strong and precise, Brokk demolition robots with specialized attachments are the go-to solution for cross passage excavation.
-
Bucket
Converting your Brokk to an agile excavator, buckets are a no-brainer, versatile attachment for cross passage excavation. They can dig, sort and separate material, and quickly load it into carts for removal from the passage.
-
Beam Grapple
Beam grapples handle the important work of placing support ribs in the passage. Brokk beam grapples are lightweight yet stand up to tough tunneling conditions and lift as much as 1,100 pounds.
-
Breaker
The breaker is a pro at removing large amounts of material, breaking it down and sizing it. Designed to hit harder and faster than competitive equipment, breaker-equipped Brokk machines also produce less noise and vibration, making them perfect for tunneling.
-
TEI Rock Drill
Paired with a Brokk robot, the TEI Rock Drill is ideal for drilling blast holes in confined spaces. It excels at cross passage work because of its ability to drill at all angles and directions, and as a bonus is far quieter than pneumatic handheld drills.
-
Drum Cutter
Drum cutters gently remove layers of hard, reinforced ground for cross passage excavation. The attachment is especially suited for tunneling work thanks to low impact operation that produces less noise and vibration.
