*Power and Precision: Terex RH170 Loading Hitachi EH3500 Dumpers in a Lignite Mine*
Today’s video takes us deep into a massive lignite mine, where we’re observing the powerful Terex RH170 front shovel excavator as it loads Hitachi EH3500 dumpers with heavy layers of rock. The Terex RH170 is located on a flat, elevated layer above the lignite deposits, where it focuses on removing a layer of hard rock, making way for the extraction of lignite below. In the background, we see enormous wheel bucket excavators at work on lignite deposits, showcasing the multi-layered extraction process of this sprawling mine.
*The Role of the Terex RH170 in Hard Rock Removal*
The Terex RH170 is purpose-built for demanding mining applications, where powerful digging and efficient loading are essential. As a front shovel excavator, it’s ideal for scooping up large amounts of material quickly and loading it into dumpers, making it the perfect machine for clearing layers of hard rock above the lignite deposits.
Engine Power: The Terex RH170 is equipped with twin diesel engines that together deliver around 1,840 horsepower (1,372 kW). This massive power output enables the excavator to lift and move heavy rock material efficiently, handling large volumes without interruption.
Operating Weight: With an operating weight of approximately 400 tons, the RH170 is both stable and durable, which is essential when working on hard rock layers. This substantial weight gives it the stability needed to manage intense loads without compromising control.
Bucket Capacity: The RH170 has a bucket capacity of around 28 cubic meters, allowing it to load large amounts of rock in each scoop. This high capacity is crucial for reducing the number of cycles required to fill each Hitachi EH3500 dumper, optimizing productivity on the site.
The RH170’s powerful performance and high bucket capacity make it well-suited for the task at hand, enabling it to move massive amounts of rock efficiently and keep the dumpers loaded in minimal passes.
*Hitachi EH3500 Dumpers: Built to Carry Heavy Loads*
The Hitachi EH3500 dumpers work in tandem with the Terex RH170, designed to handle the large loads of rock removed from the site. With their high payload and robust construction, these dumpers are built to carry dense material across rugged terrain.
Payload Capacity: The EH3500 has a payload capacity of 200 tons, making it an ideal partner for the RH170’s high-capacity bucket. This large payload capacity means each trip transports substantial material, reducing the number of cycles required to clear the area.
*Wheel Bucket Excavators at Work in the Background*
In the background, we see massive wheel bucket excavators working steadily on the lignite deposits below. These machines play a different but equally important role in the mining operation, handling softer materials in larger quantities and maintaining a continuous flow of lignite to support energy production.
Bucket Wheel Diameter: The bucket wheels on these excavators can have diameters reaching up to 21 meters, allowing them to reach deep into the lignite deposits with each rotation. This large diameter ensures they can cover significant ground quickly, keeping production levels high.
Bucket Capacity and Efficiency: Each bucket on the wheel can hold up to 10–20 cubic meters of material, depending on the model. This enables the wheel bucket excavators to extract large quantities of lignite in a single sweep, which is crucial in a mining environment where high output is needed.
*The Multi-Layered Operation of the Lignite Mine*
The setup at this lignite mine is a great example of efficient multi-layered mining. While the Terex RH170 front shovel excavator clears the upper hard rock layer, preparing the site for further extraction, the wheel bucket excavators in the background continuously work on the lignite deposits. The flat layer where the RH170 is positioned allows it to clear away the more challenging rock material, while the wheel bucket excavators handle the softer lignite below.
