New options in tippers and dump trucks

01 Sep 2019 Editorial Team

A technology taking the tipper and dump truck segment by storm is 鈥渉ybrid machines with 100 per cent electric drives, which save fuel and curb pollution鈥�, shares Ranjit Ravindran, Business Head, Mining, Voltas. 鈥淒riverless technology, including automation, is also catching on in the earthmoving machinery segment.鈥�

鈥淭here is a need for electromechanical drive dumpers and tippers powered also by electric prime movers like battery with alternator having a regenerative braking system coupled with user-friendly, self-diagnostic and prognostic features,鈥� adds Ashim Kumar Mukherjee, Technical Advisor, Belaz-Enrika Mining Equipment Services.

鈥淎 new segment opening up is the import of second-hand dump trucks, either through outright purchase from different agencies or bought at overseas auctions. These are then refurbished and reconditioned in India,鈥� says Mukherjee. 鈥淭hriveni Earthmovers recently bought a lot of second-hand, heavy earthmoving machines, including off-highway dump trucks up to 240 tonne capacity through such a process, thereby minimising its investment and enabling customised rebuilding, resulting in high techno-economic benefits. Such brought, refurbished and used dump trucks include some OJSC BELAZ 240-tonne diesel-electric dump trucks.鈥�
