Coventry's MTC to revolutionise tunnel infrastructure installation with robotic AI

A consortium of industry leaders has developed a groundbreaking robotic and AI solution, the Automated Tunnel Robotic Installation System (ATRIS), to transform the installation of mechanical and civil services in tunnels. This innovation aims to enhance safety, productivity, and sustainability in tunnel construction by automating the selection, location, and installation of brackets along tunnel walls. The project, funded in part by Innovate UK, showcases the potential for increased efficiency and reduced costs in tunnel infrastructure development.

The ATRIS system, spearheaded by Tunnel Engineering Services (UK) Ltd and supported by partners like i3D robotics and the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC), promises significant benefits across various sectors including transport, water, and energy. By leveraging robotics, automation, and visualisation software, the solution not only streamlines installation processes but also mitigates risks associated with manual labor in tunnel construction. The collaborative effort highlights the industry's shift towards adopting advanced technology for safer, more efficient infrastructure projects.
