Grout station for tunnel project

A tunnel grout station is a complete set of equipment for grout preparation, storage, and high-pressure grouting in tunnel construction. It is mainly used for: grouting of pre-support (pre-support small guide pipes, pipe roof); grouting of backfill behind initial support; grouting of surrounding rock consolidation (water plugging + reinforcement); grouting of backfill behind secondary lining; and water plugging grouting in karst, water-rich faults, and fractured zones.

The grout station utilizes a high-speed vortex mixer to ensure rapid and uniform mixing of cement, water, and additives, preventing grout segregation. The grouting pump is equipped with variable frequency speed control or hydraulic control, allowing parameters to be dynamically adjusted according to geological conditions (e.g., low-pressure slow grouting for soft soil layers, high-pressure infiltration for rock strata). Driven by a diesel engine, the hydraulic system of the Grout station requires no external power supply, making it suitable for environments without electricity (such as mountain tunnels and water diversion tunnels).

Grout station typical applications:
Synchronous Grouting in Shield Tunnels: During shield tunneling, grouting behind the tunnel segments fills voids, controlling ground settlement.
Rock Reinforcement in Mountain Tunnels: Pre-grouting of fractured rock masses forms a water-stop curtain or reinforcement ring, improving construction safety.
Tunnel Repair and Reinforcement: Chemical grouting repairs leaks, cracks, and other defects, restoring structural durability.

Grout station’s specific application scenarios in tunnels:
① Pre-grouting with small guide pipes (most commonly used): Pre-grouting in front of the tunnel face; reinforcing surrounding rock and preventing collapse; pressure: 0.5–2.0 MPa
② Pipe roof grouting (large pipe roof / long pipe roof): Entering the tunnel, shallow buried sections, underpasses of roads / buildings; forming a steel pipe + grouting consolidation arch; pressure: 1.0–3.0 MPa
③ Surrounding rock consolidation grouting & water-blocking grouting: Fractured zones, water-rich sections, karst; single-component / double-component grout; pressure: 2.0–6.0 MPa
④ Backfill grouting behind the primary support: Filling the gap between shotcrete and surrounding rock; preventing voids, settlement, and water seepage.
⑤ Backfill grouting behind the secondary lining: Filling the gap between the secondary lining and the primary support; ensuring structural density and reliable waterproofing.

Injection grout plant (grouting plant/grouting equipment system) is an integrated equipment system for grout preparation and injection in geotechnical engineering, construction and geological disaster management. Its core functions, technical features and application scenarios are as follows:
Core functions and equipment composition
Grout preparation system
Double-shaft mixer: adopts variable frequency speed regulation technology to achieve accurate proportioning of raw materials such as cement, water glass, bentonite, etc. (proportioning accuracy ±1%) to ensure slurry uniformity.
High-speed pulping machine: through the action of centrifugal force (speed ≥1450r/min), the powder is quickly dissolved, and the preparation efficiency is increased by 40% compared with traditional equipment, which is suitable for ultra-fine cement-based slurry.
Automatic batching system: integrated with screw conveyor, electronic scale and PLC controller to realize automatic metering and transportation of raw materials and reduce manual intervention.
High-pressure injection system
Piston pump group: adopts three-cylinder single-acting reciprocating pump (such as SGB6-10 type), with an output pressure of more than 10MPa and a flow rate of 6-10L/s, supporting single-liquid slurry and double-liquid slurry (cement-water glass) injection.
Intelligent control system: real-time monitoring of grouting pressure, flow and cumulative grouting volume, automatic generation of construction records (in compliance with GB/T 50448-2015 specifications), and support for cloud data storage and traceability.
Explosion-proof design: For high-risk environments such as coal mines, the equipment is equipped with explosion-proof motors, intrinsically safe circuits and pressure relief valves to ensure construction safety.
