The Port Miami Tunnel Project formed two 1.2km, 2 lane tunnels to form an alternative link to Dodge Island via the MacArthur Causeway on Watson Island. McMillan Engineering Group supplied eight 300T double acting safe rams to facilitate the lifting of the 13.1m diameter tunnel boring machines. Via the use of internal porting we were able to design these rams with 150mm stroke and only 430mm closed height.
McMillan Engineering Group were contracted to design, manufacture and supply a wide range of custom cylinders, power units and hydraulic accessories for the Urban Superway Project in Adelaide, South Australia.
McMillan Engineering Group, then trading as Industrial Hydraulic Services designed, manufactured and supplied span jacks for the M7 Project in Sydney, NSW.
