Modern civil engineering and underground space exploitation face unprecedented spatial, geological, and environmental constraints. Deep vertical shaft sinking—vital for metro ventilation shafts, hydro-electric pumped storage surge chambers, deep stormwater collection networks, and deep mining access—demands equipment capable of high-precision vertical penetration through mixed hard-rock and high-water-table strata. The modern Vertical Tunnel Boring Machine (V-TBM), also termed the Shaft Boring Machine (SBM) or Vertical Shaft Sinking Rig, represents the pinnacle of mechanized subterranean excavation technology.
Unlike conventional drill-and-blast methods or traditional reverse circulation drilling (RCD), advanced V-TBM platforms integrate mechanical cutterhead excavation, automated hydraulic thrust control, synchronized muck evacuation (via slurry or pneumatic hoisting systems), and continuous vertical liner installation into a single continuous-operation system. As a primary global manufacturer and solution provider, SINOVO Group delivers engineered vertical drilling and shaft sinking solutions that drastically reduce shaft construction timelines, eliminate hand-drilling hazards, and preserve ground structure integrity.
SINOVO Group is a professional supplier of construction machinery equipment and construction solutions, engaged in the field of construction machinery, exploration equipment, import and export product agent and construction scheme consulting, serving the world's construction machinery and exploration industry suppliers. As early as the early 1990s, the backbone members of the company have been serving in the field of construction machinery. After more than 20 years of development and innovation, the company has established a long-term strategic cooperation alliance with many top equipment manufacturers in the world and famous equipment manufacturers in China, winning numerous awards in China's engineering machinery and equipment export projects.
The business scope of SINOVO group is focused on pile construction machinery, hoisting, water well drilling and geological exploration equipment, sales and export of construction machinery and equipment, as well as total machine and tooling solutions. SINOVO has established trade relations with more than 120 countries and regions worldwide, forming a vibrant sales, service network and diversified marketing pattern across five continents.
All products have successively obtained ISO9001:2015 certification, CE certification and GOST certification. Among them, sales of piling machinery rank as the premier brand in Southeast Asia, while continuously remaining an excellent Chinese supplier to the African exploration industry. With regional design and service hubs in Singapore, Dubai, and Algiers, SINOVO provides high-quality global technology support and spare parts after-sales service.
In 2008, the company executed strategic integration and established TEG FAR EAST company in Singapore to strengthen the development of the Southeast Asian market. In 2010, SINOVO invested in its flagship production and manufacturing base within the Hebei Xianghe Emerging Industry Demonstration Zone. Covering an area of 67 mu (over 44,000 m²) with a total investment of 120 million yuan, this site focuses on the R&D and precision manufacturing of pile engineering machinery, hoisting, water well drilling, and geological exploration equipment.
Strategic Location Advantage: The factory is situated in Xianghe Industrial Park, just 100 km from Tianjin Port, facilitating fast, low-cost international sea transport and efficient equipment dispatch globally.
Beijing Sinovo International & Sinovo Heavy Industry Co. Ltd. operates a specialized production base equipped with over 50 pieces of heavy industrial equipment. Current annual production capacities include 1,000 units for core drilling rigs, 250 units for water well drilling rigs, and 120 units for rotary drilling rigs. Furthermore, SINOVO engineers remain at the absolute forefront of electronic-hydraulic control and drive systems, keeping our machinery highly competitive in performance and price.

To assist procurement directors and chief engineering officers in evaluating shaft construction methodologies, the matrix below outlines core performance benchmarks between modern V-TBM platforms and traditional drill-and-blast methods.
| Evaluation Parameter | SINOVO Modern V-TBM / Shaft Boring | Conventional Drill & Blast | Standard Reverse Circulation (RCD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Excavation Speed (m/day) | 4.0 – 8.5 m/day (Continuous) | 1.2 – 2.5 m/day (Cyclic) | 2.0 – 3.5 m/day (Rock Limited) |
| Overbreak & Ground Disturbance | Minimal (< 15 mm) via mechanical cutterhead | High (Risk of micro-fracturing surrounding rock) | Moderate to low |
| In-Shaft Operational Safety | 100% Blind / Remote Operation (Zero face workers) | High Risk (Workers exposed at bottom face) | Remote (Surface monitored) |
| Water Influx Control | High (Integrated slurry dynamic pressure management) | Requires extensive pre-grouting cycles | Requires high-density mud columns |
| Vertical Alignment Accuracy | Laser guided dynamic correction (± 0.05% slope) | Manual plumbline dependent (± 0.5% - 1.0%) | Controlled by drill string rigidity (± 0.2%) |
| Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) | Lowest cost per vertical meter on shafts > 30m | High labor & explosive compliance overhead | High tool wear costs in hard abrasive rock |
