280 SMi
High-performance surface miners for reliable, selective extraction of raw materials by direct loading, sidecasting, or cut-to-ground. Raw materials are extracted and crushed in situ in purest quality in a single operation – without drilling and blasting, and with minimal environmental impact. The 2,750 mm cutting drum unit with a cutting depth of up to 650 mm is precisely adaptable to each specific application and achieves outstanding cutting performance with minimal cutting tool wear. The powerful rear loading conveyor with a movable counterweight can be elevated and slewed to ensure a perfect flow of materials and makes it possible to load trucks with payloads of up to 100 tons. Its air-conditioned and soundproofed operator’s cabin with all-round glazing is swivel-mounted on the front chassis column and provides a fatigue-free and productive working environment.
