Features may include:
Sustainability- Minetruck MT42 SG Trolley improves the environment both locally at your operations and globally. Thanks to it being 100% electric, this underground mine truck means zero exposure for the operators to diesel particulates, and toxic gases such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide (NOx, HC, and CO). It makes a difference when it comes to reducing carbon footprint and greenhouse gases.
Productivity- Minetruck MT42 SG Trolley is optimized for productivity in many ways. The drivetrain has been enhanced to reduce losses and reduce the number of components. On this mine truck, one high-power electric motor is connected to each axle. The electrical drivetrain provides high speed on grades, both up and down the ramp. Hydraulic functions are powered by a separate auxiliary motor that delivers hydraulic power on demand. The trolley system powers the truck in the energy-consuming driving up the ramp and charging the battery (dynamic charging). No need to stop for re-fueling, battery charge, or battery swap, just continuous haulage.
Cost / ton- Minetruck MT42 SG Trolley provides you with one of the lowest costs/ton on the market. This is primarily attributed to its low energy consumption, facilitated by continuous battery regeneration, along with minimal preventive maintenance requirements and reduced ventilation needs.
- The electrical drivetrain of the new Minetruck MT42 SG Trolley boasts a streamlined design, significantly decreasing the number of components, service points, and moving parts. By eliminating traditional components like the engine, transmission, and cardan shafts, maintenance intervals are extended, parts consumption is reduced, uptime is increased, and overall operational costs are lowered. This signifies a 90% reduction in drivetrain maintenance needs.
