Mining excavator on a “WideCombi“<br />
Safe and reliable under extreme conditions<br />
Modern mining and the mining industry have experienced tremendous<br />
technological changes. Where only a few decades ago trolleys and<br />
human labour were relied on to get the job done, today huge amounts<br />
of earth and rock are moved by machines specially designed for this<br />
purpose. The logistical challenges are, on the one hand, to efficiently<br />
transport the excavated materials for further processing and, on<br />
the other, transporting the large, often difficult-to-move stripping<br />
machines to their places of operation<br />
The TII Group can look back on decades-long experience in the mining<br />
sector. Today, the Group has a wide range of vehicles and modules for<br />
the transportation of giant excavators, earth movers, surface mining<br />
machines and conveying systems in the most remote mining areas<br />
in the world. The product portfolio ranges from electronically controlled,<br />
self-propelled units and manouvrable lifting transporters and<br />
mega modules through to U-frames and special vehicles. The most<br />
powerful tractor worldwide approved for road use, the Tractomas<br />
with more than 1,000 hp, has established itself in the large mining<br />
regions of the world for towing raw material trailers in convoys –<br />
so-called road trains – involving total combination weights of up to<br />
550 tonnes at speeds of up to 80 km/h on unpaved roads or on up to<br />
8-degree gradients from the pit. Also for transportation underground,<br />
flexibly used transport systems including the unmanned versions –<br />
so-called AGVs (Automatic Guided Vehicles) - perform a wide range<br />
of tasks. The TII Group’s mining portfolio is characterized by its high<br />
level of robustness and very long service life. Whether it is working<br />
in temperatures of -40 to +50 degrees Centigrade or difficult, highly<br />
corrosive environments – the transport systems of the Group operate<br />
reliably and safely also under extreme conditions.<br />
