Hard Rock
20-26 Edition 47
Features
●
Productive
— The Rock Straight System is designed
for a continuous cutting operation. The combined
use of the hard rock miner (cutting and loading of
the material) and the face conveyor (transporting/
moving the material) represents a system for simulta-
neous cutting and hauling — a fast and cost-effective
solution generating greater return of investment.
●
Efficient
— The Rock Straight System is tailored to
operate in low seam heights — it follows the seam
and maximizes the output of cut hard rock material
mined out, and leaves waste rock formation above
the low seam untouched.
●
Reduces Risks to Health and Safety
— The hydrauli-
cally operated hard rock miner and electrically driven
hard rock conveyor significantly improve the under-
ground climate and system carbon footprint.
●
Automated
— The fully automated continuous cut-
ting, loading and hauling operation optimizes the
process flow and makes hard rock cutting more effi-
cient by shortening the excavation cycle.
●
Safe in Operation
— Cutting of hard and highly abras-
ive rock reduces or eliminates the need for explosives
where it is used. Furthermore, a remote control oper-
ation provides optimum comfort and safety for oper-
ators, as the operator is placed in a RSPS (FOPS
equivalent) certified cabin with air conditioning. This
makes job conditions more attractive and lowers
operating cost because fewer personnel is needed
underground.
●
Service and Maintenance Friendly
— The modular
architecture and the compactness of its components
support a trouble-free handling. This results in short-
ened downtimes for repair, maintenance and panel
moves.
