1月13日，我国自主研制的世界最大直径竖井掘进机"启明号"正式始发，投入崇太长江隧道2号竖井建设，开创了我国高速铁路竖井采用掘进机施工的新纪 元。 2号竖井的顺利建成，为崇太长江隧道"领航号"盾构机的接收、二次始发及全隧贯通奠定了坚实基础。隧道建成后，将大幅缩短上海与江苏的时空距离，首 次实现高铁过江不减速，结束中国第三大岛(崇明岛)不通高铁的历史，对打造"轨道上的长三角"，服务长江经济带和长三角一体化高质量发展等具有重要意 义。 隧道全长14.25千米，设有竖井3座。其中2号竖井地处太仓市浮桥镇，是"领航号"盾构机接收与再始发的核心要地，距离长江南岸大堤200米，为临江漫滩超 深富水、预制装配式圆形竖井，直径24.0米，掘进深度56.08米。该竖井地下水位高，且与长江水系联系紧密，地质环境复杂，施工难度大，安全风险高，极 易引发透水、涌水涌沙等风险。 为安全、快速、优质建成2号竖井，项目团队大胆创新，首次采用水下全自动机械式竖井掘进机(VSM)——崇太长江隧道"启明号"进行施工。该掘进机开挖 直径24米，主机高约13米，最大开挖深度75米，是我国自主研制的世界最大直径竖井掘进机。 崇太长江隧道是"两重"项目 ...

科技创新和产业创新，是发展新质生产力的基本路径。2025年，我们依靠创新为高质量发展赋能，科技 与产业深度融合，中国经济顶压前行、向新向优发展，现代化产业体系建设持续推进。 迈入2026年，如何以科技创新引领产业创新？如何放大二者深度融合的乘数效应？产业界如何把握机 遇、再谱新篇？让我们一起听听企业研发负责人的声音。 ——编 者 航空工业特飞所AS700项目总师周雷 新型飞艇将飞得更高更远 我来自中国航空工业集团所属特种飞行器研究所。研究生毕业时，不少同学投身大飞机等热门项目，我 却因一个"特"字选择加入特飞所。入职后才懂，"特"字背后意味着冷门——聚焦水面飞行器、浮空器等 小众领域，无成熟经验可循，技术路径全靠自主摸索。不过，特飞所包容创新的氛围让我迅速扎根，深 耕各型号设计研发与专项课题研究。 10年前，我与"祥云"AS700飞艇结缘，伴随它走过设计、试制、试飞、取证直至应用的全过程。今天， 我可以自豪地介绍，AS700是我国首个按适航规范研制且拥有完全自主知识产权的短距/垂直起降载人 飞艇。 回顾2025年，2月，我们圆满完成电动型AS700D科研首飞；9月，AS700在贵州飞越"世界第一高桥"花 江峡 ...

中央纪委国家监委网站 陈瑶 2025年5月，习近平总书记在河南考察时强调，现代制造业离不开科技赋能，要大力加强技术攻关，走自主创 新的发展路子。 24米可以是一栋8层建筑的高度，也可以是3辆公交车首尾相连的长度，这就是"启明号"的最大开挖直径。 "启明号"是中铁工程装备集团有限公司（以下简称"中铁装备"）与中铁隧道局集团有限公司联合研制的世界 最大直径竖井掘进机。9月26日，该装备在河南省郑州市成功下线，之后前往崇太长江隧道施工现场，目前已 顺利抵达"工位"，正处于组装调试阶段，预计2026年元旦后正式始发。 竖井掘进机是专门用于垂直向下挖掘的大型工程装备，它就像一个集掘进、支护、出渣、井壁拼装、渣土分 离等功能于一体的"超级钻头"，成为深地工程、地下停车场、地下空间开发的掘进利器。与同类型装备相 比，"启明号"开挖面积大，最大开挖深度可达150米，是一位妥妥的"优等生"。培养这样一位"优等生"有哪些 秘诀？近日，记者对话"启明号"项目负责人，了解研发设计背后的故事。 直面"痛点"，算好安全效率成本"三笔账" 世界最大直径竖井掘进机"启明号"成功下线。受访单位供图 沪渝蓉高铁是中国"八纵八横"高速铁路网中"沿 ...
