Weekly Report No. 377, KW 3

The container cabins are now detailed. So far, everything looks pretty normal…

with the small offices for the supervising engineers and conference rooms. If, however, one looks abit closer,…

… one can clearly see that the management had a couple of fine ideas to brighten the leisure time of their associates after a hard day’s work.

The tunnel boring machine (TBM) also nears completion. The so-called „worm“ of the TBM is installed and detailed in this picture.

The boring head of the TBM is designed to move back and forth. In this picture, the mechanics to simulate the movement is built in.

Speaking of movement: Another new detail for the gas station is ready. A beetle is about to be thorougly cleaned in this portal-carwash. The complete portal moves, exactly like the prototype, over the vehicle and lowers or rises the rotating brush.

Two weeks ago we showed you this workspace when boxes were piling up right into the aisles. As one can see, many of them have been „worked off“…

Much to his disgrace, Maik’s main workspace still looks a bit chaotic. Maik promised, however, that when the next new section will be opened, he will be back to 'normal' order! :)
