Underground mining machines
LHD Loaders

Articulated wheel loaders produced by KGHM ZANAM S.A. are designed for loading and transporting material excavated from mine faces in underground mines of metal ores and minerals. They may be used as an autonomous haulage system in mines, or cooperate with other transport machinery, such as haulage vehicles. Operators of the loaders are protected by a closed "capsule" structure, which ensures protection against impact of rocks hitting the machine with energy of 60 kJ. Depending on the model, the loader bucket capacity ranges from 1.6 m3 to 8.5 m3, whereas its lifting capacity from 30 kN to 160 kN. The height of machines varies from 1.5 m to 2.6 m, making them suitable for use in mine headings with height of 1.7 m or more. Machines are designed to work in excavations with a longitudinal slope of 13-15° and transverse slope of 5-8°. The machines may be equipped with a central lubriaction system and a hydro-pneumatic boom stability system. In order to ensure ergonomic and comfrotable working conditions, the machines may be provided with air-conditioned cabins. If necessary the steering system may be controlled with joysticks. Optionally, the loaderes may have installed a weighing system of transported material and a remotely operated fire-extinguishing system. Loaders of series 800 and 900 are optionally provided with a bucket equiped with a withdrawable partition.
