The design of work equipment surface miner
Surface miners are increasingly common in open-pit mines of various minerals. These machines provide high performance, eliminate the single largest output when parsing array, allow you to include in the technological scheme of works conveyor transport. Depending on the physical properties of rocks by the working equipment surface miner can have different versions. The article proposed the classification of work equipment surface miner on such elements as the location on the car, suspension, layout, drive type, design features, type of cutting tools, the direction of rotation of the equipment and the possibility of process intensification. Surface miners are a relatively new type of equipment for the conduct of open mining works, and in connection with the development of their designs, in particular the working of the equipment continues.
