- PRODUCT PROPERTIES:
➢ Specific soil conditioning in tunneling.
➢ Increase impermeability of the soil.
➢ Reduces adhesion and clogging.
➢ Reduces drilling head torque and energy consumption.
➢ Improves soil removal.
➢ Decreases wear on the drilling tool.
➢ Reduces dust load.
➢ Cost-effective dosage.
➢ Enviromentally friendly and readily biodegradable.
- AREAS OF APPLICATION:
➢ Soil conditioning for tunnel boring machines with earth pressure balance (EPB TBM).
➢ Soil with high proportions of clays and high clogging tendency.
➢ Mountains in loose rock with a wide grain range.
- APPLICATION ADVICE:
➢ MC-Montan Drive FL 04 FR is a liquid foam concentrate to generate a unique and stable foam, combined with a dispersing agent for clay minerals.
➢ MC-MontanDrive FL 04 FR is ideal for soils with high proportions of clay minerals. The strong combination of active substances reduces friction and abrasiveness of soil. That results in reduced power consumption and wears on the drilling tool.
➢ Special action mechanism facilitates high TBM driving speed with cost-effective dosing volumes.
➢ MC-Montan Drive FL 04 FR can be used with all conventional dosing devices and the MC-Montan Device CT.
➢ The dosage depends on the nature of soil. Normal concentration is 1-3 % in a watery solution.
➢ The “MC-Business Unit Tunnelling” is available for individual recommendation and optimization of the application on site.
