2-Cubic-Meter Underground Scrapers Officially Shipped to South Africa

Recently, a batch of tailor-made 2-cubic-meter underground scrapers completed final commissioning and loading at the port. Accompanied by the whistle of an ocean-going cargo ship, they officially embarked on their voyage to South Africa. This not only marks another important milestone for domestic underground engineering equipment going global, but also signifies that this "underground workhorse" will be fully adapted to the needs of South Africa's mining industry and underground engineering projects, injecting strong momentum into the local development of deep underground resources and infrastructure construction. 

As a mining powerhouse on the African continent, South Africa boasts abundant reserves of mineral resources such as gold, platinum, and diamonds, generating robust demand for underground mining and tunnel construction. However, local underground operating environments are generally characterized by narrow roadways, complex geology, and high operational intensity, imposing stringent requirements on equipment's spatial adaptability, wear resistance, durability, and power performance. 

The 2-cubic-meter underground scrapers shipped this time have been precisely optimized based on the actual working conditions of the South      African market, emerging as a "customized solution" tailored to local needs.  To meet the operational demands of South Africa's underground mines, these scrapers have undergone targeted upgrades in core performance. 

Addressing the high humidity and dusty environments in some South African mine roadways, the equipment features enhanced sealing protection and heat dissipation for the hydraulic system, adopting imported dust-proof filters and corrosion-resistant coatings to ensure long-term stable operation under harsh conditions. Considering the steep slopes of local mines, the power transmission system has been optimized to achieve a climbing capacity of up to 28°, complemented by anti-skid tires and a precise braking system to guarantee safety during steep slope operations.

 With a golden loading capacity of  2 cubic meters, it perfectly matches the daily mining output of small and medium-sized mines in South Africa—avoiding efficiency losses caused by frequent transportation while flexibly adapting to the transfer needs of narrow roadways, thus significantly improving the overall efficiency of mining operations.  Before long, they will penetrate deep into South Africa's underground mines and tunnel construction sites, serving as a "new engine" for local deep underground development with their powerful performance and reliable operation.

 This is not only a vivid practice of Chinese equipment "going global," but also a wonderful testimony to China-South Africa win-win cooperation and joint efforts to empower Africa's infrastructure construction and resource development.
