Customisable loader trucks for stability and control

KGHM ZANAM’s articulated wheel loaders are designed to transport excavated material from underground mines to the surface.

The loaders can be used with other haulage vehicles, or as part of an autonomous haulage system. The vehicles’ closed capsule structure protects operators from falling rocks, and the sturdy cabins are available with air conditioning, for comfort over long hours in adverse environments.

The LHD loaders are available with a selection of customisable extras, to best suit the needs of the operation. Loaders may be equipped with a central lubrication system, a hydro-pneumatic boom stability system, joystick steering control, a load weighing system and a remotely operated fire-extinguishing system.

The 800 and 900 series also offer buckets that have a withdrawable partition.

Efficient unloading underground haul trucks

Haul trucks carry materials from the mine face to various handling points in mineral ore mines.

KGHM ZANAM’s haul trucks have an effective push-out unloading system, where the output is discharged from the box using a removable slide wall and a movable box. This system ensures that even the smallest amount of material is removed and the haulage box is completely empty for its next load.

The push-out process eliminates the need to raise the haulage box, so the trucks have a fixed height and do not require raised galleries in handling points.

Haul trucks are highly manoeuverable and ideal for narrow, difficult spaces in mine headings. The CB4-20TB 4×4 truck can be equipped with an optional drive system that has additional hydraulic motors installed on hubs so that, when the truck loses traction, the operator can activate the additional drive by transferring torque to the hubs.

Self-propelled drilling and roof bolting trucks

Self-propelled drilling and roof bolting trucks are machines with one working stand and one boom that drill blast holes and create expansion and adhesive anchors (roof bolting) in underground, methane-free mines.

The key features of the trucks include the drilling rig’s telescopic boom and drilling frame, and the roof bolting rig’s telescopic boom and a bolting turret, which can be equipped with a rotary drill or a rotary / hammer drill.

Both the drilling and roof bolting trucks have a shield protecting the operator from vertical impacts on the machine, and a stable assorted drive unit.

Blaster trucks for methane-free operations

Blaster trucks are self-propelled machines for underground, methane-free mines that do not excavate coal. The trucks have a driver’s cab and a cabin on the platform to carry two workers, for blast hole loading.

KGHM ZANAM’s blaster trucks are used for applications including:

• Producing explosive materials and loading it into blast holes
• Carrying unarmed explosives, detonation cord and/or fuses
• Transporting two people and the driver
• Lifting two workers on a mobile platform in order to load blast holes
