The control cabin of the K10000/K74 mining machine is located very close to the excavator, so there is a risk that a potential explosion will directly endanger the operator’s life and health. Moving the controls to a backup location deep in the bowels and safety of the mining machine, and using a camera system provide the operator with the same view as from the original cabin. This nonstandard requirement was a challenge for the integrator. It had to invent a unique custom-made solution without compromising the mining machine’s functions or possibilities. Read More

Reliability and durability under heavy conditions were a must, and the biggest enemies were dustiness and vibration during the machine’s operation.
