Special design for crawler in the Carajás iron ore mine
The transport crawler was designed for a payload of 500 t with an eccentricity of the load of 500 mm. One special feature of the project was the low geometry caused by an extremely narrow access opening required by the client. So the challenge was to design a very compact machine. In compliance with local and client-specific safety standards, an automatic fire-detection system was installed.
