 CBE Group is a medium-sized company specialized in engineering and manufacturing of metal molds, handling equipment and industrial plants for the production of tubbings (precast concrete segments to consolidate the vault of a tunnel after the boring process of the tunnel boring machine built in jacking pipe construction) for tunnel lining of any kind of tunnel (subway, road, railway, cable, sewer tunnels, etc.).

At present the company presents a unique tubbing production method manufacturing precast concrete segments without vibration. This is achieved by the working steps inclination of the mold, injection of the SCC from bottom up and curing in traditional horizontal position.

The new system provides three major advantages:

Safety improvement & better working conditions by

» Elimination of noise pollution and risks involved in the vibration process

» Avoidance of difficult processes concerning the segment surface

Durability and quality by

» Longer service life of the mold

» Simplified maintenance
