A Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pump is specifically designed to handle slurry, a mixture of water and solids, during the tunnel-boring process. Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pumps are typically used to construct tunnels, mines, and other underground structures.
Tunnel Boring Machine sludge pumps are typically high-pressure pumps capable of handling abrasive and corrosive slurry materials. They are used to transport the slurry from the tunnel boring machine to a separation plant, where the solids are separated from the water and disposed of.
Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pumps are designed to be durable and reliable, as they are subjected to harsh conditions and must be able to operate continuously for long periods. They are typically made of materials resistant to wear and corrosion, such as stainless steel or high-chromium iron.
Several types of Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pumps include centrifugal pumps, positive displacement pumps, and hydraulic pumps. The type of pump best suited for a particular application will depend on the specific characteristics of the slurry being pumped and the desired output of the pumping process.
Centrifugal slurry pumps: These pumps use centrifugal force to move the slurry through the pump and are typically used for high-flow, low-pressure applications.
Positive displacement slurry pumps: These pumps use a rotating element, such as a screw or rotor, to move the slurry through the pump. They are typically used in applications where the slurry has a high solids content and can handle higher pressures.
Hydraulic slurry pumps use high-pressure water to move the slurry through the pump. They are typically used in applications with highly abrasive or corrosive slurry.
The type of Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pump best suited for a particular application will depend on the specific characteristics of the pump and the desired output of the pumping process. Factors to consider when selecting a Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pump include the type of solids being pumped, the concentration of solids in the slurry, the pressure and flow rate required, and the operating environment. It is essential to choose a pump capable of handling the specific characteristics of the slurry and meeting the required performance specifications.
An electric-powered Eddy Pump is ideal for a Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pump because it can pump a high concentration of solids vs. liquid without clogging like conventional pumps. It is also the lowest total life cycle and highest uptime Tunnel Boring Machine slurry pump on the market.

Pass solids from 1-12 inches (rocks, rags, debris). The EDDY Pump’s open rotor design with high tolerances allow anything that will go into the intake to be passed through the discharge without issues.
Tolerance between the rotor and the volute in the 4″ EDDY Pump easily allows the passage of a man’s arm (*see picture below). Compared with the tolerance in a centrifugal pump, the EDDY Pump easily wins. Pump Range spans 1-inch through 12-inch EDDY Pump line, the tolerance ranges from 1-12 inches.
This translates to a significant amount of solids and debris pass through, without clogging the pump.
Best Applications: If you are pumping slurry, high solids, extremely viscous material, paste, high abrasives(sand & gravel) and material filled with solids, then you found the ideal pump for your job. Call Us.
