The pipe jacking machine is an efficient and advanced underground engineering construction equipment with wide application. This article will introduce the purpose and usage of the pipe jacking machine , in order to help readers better understand and master this technology.

　　1. Application of pipe jacking machine

　　Pipe jacking machines are mainly used in the construction of various underground projects, such as urban subways, drainage systems, tunnels, etc. It can excavate spaces of various shapes and sizes quickly and efficiently, and the ground can be kept flat and undisturbed during the excavation process. Therefore, the pipe jacking machine plays an important role in modern urban construction, which can speed up the progress of the project and improve the construction efficiency.

　　2. How to use the pipe jacking machine

　　1. Preparations

　　Before use, the pipe jacking machine needs to be inspected and maintained to ensure that the equipment can operate normally. First of all, the equipment needs to be cleaned to avoid dust, sand and other impurities from affecting the normal operation of the equipment. Then, the lubrication system, electrical system, and mechanical system of the equipment need to be checked to ensure that there are no faults or problems in the equipment. It is necessary to comprehensively check whether the tools and spare parts supply system are perfect to ensure that the pipe jacking machine can run stably for a long time.

　　2. Equipment installation

　　Move the pipe jacking machine to the construction site, use large lifting equipment to hoist the equipment to the predetermined position, and install the fixing bolts to make it at the designed position. During the installation process, it is necessary to check whether the equipment is installed in good condition and ensure a safe distance between it and the surrounding construction environment.

　　3. Control system setup

　　The control system is the core part of the pipe jacking machine, responsible for controlling the operation and construction of the equipment. Before starting construction, it is necessary to set up the control system, and the parameters include tunneling speed, advancing force and direction, etc. After the control system is set up, it needs to be tested to ensure that the equipment and system are functioning properly.

　　4. Construction process

　　During the construction process, it is necessary to operate according to the design requirements and plans. First, advance the equipment to the digging position through the control system, and guide the equipment to start digging. Secondly, it is necessary to continuously adjust the control system parameters to adapt to different environmental requirements. During the excavation process, attention should be paid to maintaining the stability and safety of the equipment to prevent equipment instability or accidents. After the excavation is completed, the equipment needs to be removed from the site in time.

　　5. Troubleshooting

　　During use, if there is a failure, it needs to be dealt with in time. Common problems include oil leakage of equipment, failure of electrical components, damage to mechanical parts, etc. After a fault is found, it is necessary to immediately stop the operation of the equipment and check the cause of the problem. If you cannot handle it by yourself, you need to contact the equipment manufacturer or a professional for maintenance.

　　To sum up, the pipe jacking machine is an efficient and modern underground engineering construction equipment, which can quickly and efficiently excavate spaces of various shapes and sizes, and can ensure that the ground is flat and undisturbed during the excavation process. Mastering the use method and maintenance skills of the pipe jacking machine plays an important role in ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and improving the construction efficiency.
