Robbins produces 100th continuous conveyor
2017
Overview
On Oct 18, 2017, a Robbins 9.26-m (30.4-ft) diameter crossover machine started up at the Akron Ohio Canal Interceptor Tunnel (OCIT) in Ohio. But the startup wasn't the only milestone. Running behind the crossover tunnel boring machine (TBM) is the 100th Robbins continuous conveyor system supplied for muck removal. The side-mounted conveyor is a design standard, but the landmark is a significant one. While conveyors would not be adopted as a standard method of muck removal for many years afterward, the project laid the groundwork for future success.
