  The newly developed anchor cable installation robot KDMS2013 by Changsha Keda Intelligent Equipments Co., Ltd. has successfully completed industrial assessment and been officially applied in pumped storage projects.

 

  This vehicle is suitable for the construction of slopes, underground tunnel arches, and side wall anchor cables in water conservancy and hydropower projects, and comes with an operating platform with synchronous functions such as cable feeding and grouting. Its formal application has broken through the construction bottleneck of relying on "human wave tactics" for the installation of underground caverns and high slope anchor cables in hydropower projects, enabling the installation of a single prestressed anchor cable to be completed with only 2 to 3 people working together, and controlling the operation time to 20 to 30 minutes. Not only does it significantly reduce labor costs and shorten construction periods for construction units, but it also provides a good practical direction for upgrading hydropower construction towards mechanization, intelligence, and unmanned direction.

 

  Before the application of KDMS2013 anchor cable installation trolley, the installation of anchor cables in hydropower projects was mostly carried out using traditional methods such as scaffolding or cranes combined with manual labor. Due to the objective characteristics of heavy weight and long length of anchor cables, a single operation usually requires dozens of construction workers to collaborate, and in complex scenarios such as high slopes, the number of workers can even exceed 40; The installation time for a single anchor cable is generally 2 to 3 hours, and the operation time for anchor cables in special parts such as arches can reach 7 to 8 hours.

 

  With the continuous improvement of construction quality and efficiency requirements in modern hydropower engineering, the industry transformation demand for replacing manual labor with mechanization and ensuring safety with intelligence has become increasingly urgent. The application and implementation of KDMS2013 anchor cable installation trolley can reduce labor input by 70%, improve operational efficiency by 80%, and at the same time reduce the safety risks of high-altitude operations from the source.


  The KDMS2013 anchor cable installation robot integrates grouting system, realizing the integrated operation of anchor cable installation and grouting process. The mixing bucket equipped on the device supports one click quick start, easy operation, and stable operation. With the cooperation of a freely movable main arm operating platform, construction personnel can complete grouting of multiple anchor cables without frequently changing their work positions. After the grouting operation is completed, the equipment's built-in cleaning device can quickly clean the grouting pipeline, effectively avoiding pipeline blockage caused by residual slurry, greatly reducing the workload and cost of manual maintenance.

 

  As an important technological innovation achievement of the company in the field of hydropower construction, KDMS2013 anchor cable installation robot solves the bottleneck of traditional construction relying on manpower with "mechanization", improves construction safety and operational efficiency with "intelligence", and leads the new direction of industry development with "unmanned", providing efficient and safe new technical solutions for underground caverns, slope anchor cable support and other projects of hydropower stations. In the future, the company will continue to be guided by cultivating and developing new quality productivity, focusing on the core technical pain points in engineering construction, and promoting the research and application of more intelligent and mechanized construction equipment.
