Drilling Machines

A drilling machine which is creates holes (usually called boreholes) and/or shafts in the ground. Drilling rigs can be massive structures housing equipment used to drill water wells, oil wells, ornatural gas extraction wells or they can be small enough to be moved manually by one person. They sample sub-surface mineral deposits, test rock, soil and groundwater physical properties, and to install sub-surface fabrications, such as underground utilities, instrumentation, tunnels or wells. Drilling rigs can be mobile equipment mounted on trucks, tracks or trailers, or more permanent land or marine-based structures (such as oil platforms, commonly called 'offshore oil rigs'). The term "rig" therefore generally refers to the complex of equipment that is used to penetrate the surface of the earth's crust.

electric shovels

Power shovels are used principally for excavation and removal ofoverburden inopen-cut miningoperations, though it may include loading of minerals, such ascoal. They are the modern equivalent ofsteam shovels, and operate in a similar fashion.
he digging phase consists of crowding the dipper into the bank, hoisting the dipper to fill it, then retracting the full dipper from the bank. The swinging phase occurs once the dipper is clear of the bank both vertically and horizontally. The operator controls the dipper through a planned swing path and dump height until it is suitably positioned over the haul unit (e.g. truck). Dumping involves opening the dipper door to dump the load, while maintaining the correct dump height. Returning is when the dipper swings back to the bank, and involves lowering the dipper into the tuck position to close the dipper door.

Wheel Loaders

A loader (also known as:bucket loader,front loader,front end loader,payloader,scoop loader,shovel, skip loader, and/or wheel loader) is a type of tractor, usually wheeled, sometimes on tracks, that has a front mounted square wide bucket connected to the end of two booms (arms) to scoop up loose material from the ground, such as dirt, sand or gravel, and move it from one place to another without pushing the material across the ground. A loader is commonly used to move a stockpiled material from ground level and deposit it into an awaiting dump truck or into a open trench excavation.

The loader assembly may be a removable attachment or permanently mounted. Often the bucket can be replaced with other devices or tools--for example, many can mount forks to lift heavy pallets or shipping containers, and a hydraulically-opening "clamshell" bucket allows a loader to act as a light dozer or scraper. The bucket can also be augmented with devices like a bale grappler for handling large bales of hay orstraw.

Wheel Dozers

The Caterpillar® 854K wheel dozer incorporates innovations to lower engine emissions and boosts fuel efficiency, improves reliability and serviceability, and optimizes operator efficiency and comfort. Specifically, the 854K uses a Cat C32 engine and a new radiator with improved heat transfer capabilities. A variable speed demand fan aids efficiency. For the operator, a new, larger cab includes a trainer's seat, and a new low-effort joystick controls all blade functions

Underground Mining equipment

The machines fitted with Trelleborg cab mounts are the R1300G, R1600G, R1700G and the R2900G LHDs, designed and built by Caterpillar Underground Mining in Burnie, Tasmania, Australia. Powered by Caterpillar engines from 136 kW to 321 kW gross power, they weigh from 27 tonnes to 67 tonnes. These vehicles are capable of carrying payloads from 6,800 kg to 20,000 kg up slopes of 1 in 5 or 20%.All machines in the range offer a choice between an open operator station and an enclosed cab. The open option incorporates a protective structure in accordance with ROPS (roll-over) and FOPS (falling object) regulations and is resiliently mounted via Treleborg's TrellExtreme ® Ultra Duty bushes. UD bushes are also used to isolate the optional enclosed cab, which offers a sound-suppressed working environment, as well as fresh, pressurized temperature-controlled air circulation, ergonomic design and a high level of comfort.
