Bro, the largest TBM maker in China is CREG. Herrenknecht uses their China factory for export, since they can't compete with the Chinese manufacturers domestically. Please stop being so egoistic, check the facts. Nobody is denying HerrenK is big worldwide but you need to start realizing the biggest domestic manufacturer is CREG and they are starting to export under the Aker Wirth brand. Germans are just too expensive, nobody is doubting the quality, but $ speaks louder.I dont need to recheck Herrenknecht is WORLD MARKET LEADER and they completely OWN the Chineses tunnel boring market and all major project expect ONE is done with Herrenknecht boring mashines... they have THREE plants in China were they build boring mashines in Guangzhou allone are since 2001 76Herrenknecht boring mashines at work drilling 230km ...each of them 48m a day or 691m a month
Suez Canal Crossing, London Metro, New York subway, nearly every subway in China, Gotthard tunnel, Soshi subway everywere is Herrenknecht
they totaly dominate the market
Ever wonder why they are exporting from China? Because the supply chain is in China, not in Germany anymore. They can produce the machines cheaper and faster.
The moment we bought KUKA, I can tell you Germany is declining. The world will be multipolar and Germany is not the pole, you are under American patronage.
