 found partial ID for this !! so an italian tunneling machine

according to info the main crucial parts came from none other then LeTourneau , possibly designed by them too

Quote I saw another picture of this tunnel boring machine in the book LeTourneau Heavy Equipment by Eric C. Orlemann where he explained it was built in the early 1970ies.
From LeTourneau came the tires with rims and the electric drivers with motors, planetary reduction and brakes. And the according engineering support.


so IMO that's sufficient to list it as LeTourneau build in Italy , plus that's the only info we will probably ever get on it :/
