GREEN TECHNOLOGY . . .
No diesel particulate emissions
QUICK DEPLOYMENT . . .
Enables rapid mine development compared
to traditional mining methods
QUIET OPERATION. . .
More than 50% quieter than conveyors
LAYOUT FLEXIBILITY. . .
Modular design allows ability to reuse, relocate and extend
the system to follow activity expansion
No mid-life overhauls
- Hub/Wheel bearings and clevis car connections
designed to go 20 year life
- Motors and gear boxes are proven industrial
products designed for heavier and much higher duty
service
