Mining application

A versatile applicable commercial vehicle from underground mining that is required for maintenance in different sectors. The lift arm is now equipped with e-chains® from igus®. The cables could not be integrated in the first model series – they were guided between the booms and laid partly on the ground. Everything was possible during operation – from damage to possible cutting with the consequence of failure. The new generation of “twisterchain ® new” allows safe separating of all cables and lines from the other components.
