Various types of Mining Equipments

The mining industry is one of the most dangerous working environments. Mining equipments are instruments that are commonly used in extraction of minerals from the earth surface. In the past, ancient times, miners used to excavate minerals and metals by using simple hand held tools. With the introduction of automation and modernization, today’s mining world enjoys the benefit of many types of mining equipments that are used specially for mining purposes. Modern day mining equipment is powered mainly by electricity and hydraulic energy.

Mining equipments are available for various types of mining methods that are performed around the world. There are various types of mining equipments available in the world. Some of them are industrial shredders, drilling equipment, blasting equipment, drill rigs, hammers, mine winders, blasting machine, Mining Locomotive, well drilling machine, industrial crushers, cutting machines, drills, loaders, blasting devices, Track Drill, Rock Drill, etc. Some examples of mining equipment that is used extensively in mining operations are: hard hats, clothing/gear, ventilation fans, rock dusters, tractors, earth movers, water jet pumps, cutting machines, drills, loaders, blasting devices, dozers, trucks, cranes, fork lifts, draglines and many other machineries. A mining light system is important mining equipment used for all mining processes. A mining light system increases the efficiency and the speed of mining operations and guarantees optimum results in mining process. A mining light might consist of a heat sink, LED or laser, magnetic switch or a focusing cone. Gold pans, sluice boxes, metal detectors, digging tools, gold vials, snuffer bottles, etc., are equipments used for gold mining. Various kinds of large mining excavators are available for mining field. The mining excavators using advanced technology help in reaching the international level of performance in mining processes.

There are mining equipments available specifically for Surface mining processes such as open-pit mining, strip or area mining, quarrying, contour mining, mountaintop removal, and placer mining. For example, some of the Open Cast Mining Equipments are Rock Drills, Drifter, Paving Breaker, DTH Hammer, Wagon Drill, Slim Drill LD-4, Pneumatic Crawler Drill, TCT Drill Steel Grinder, and Cross Bit Grinder. There are excellent mining equipments available for Sub-surface mining processes such as shaft mining, drift mining, borehole mining, slope mining, and hard rock mining. Similarly, there are special mining equipments for deep underground mining processes such as Longwall mining, Continuous mining, Blast mining, Shortwall mining and Retreat mining. For example, some of the underground Mining Equipments are Junior Simba, Mucking Machine, Slurry Pump, Exhaust Fan, Air Mover, Cement Injection Pump, Pneumatic Power Pack, Turbo Light, Spare parts for Atlas Copco Drifter BBC-120F, Simba Junior, BMS-46 Feed Motor, BSP 10 Pneumatic Rod Catcher, Atlas Copco Cavo 310 Loader, Pneumatic Raise Climber, Eimco Loader & Hopper.

The use of right mining equipment is very essential for increased productivity. For example, the use of large mining equipment in surface mining maximizes the recovery through the excavation of one or more coal seam deposits in the large area surface mines.

Many features, restrictions and criteria need to be considered while choosing the mining equipments for a mining process. The two most important factors for choosing any type of mining equipment are its strength and durability. Cost is also an important consideration while selecting mining equipments.

Mining is a very dangerous process. If a wrong piece of equipment or tool is used for a specific mining purpose, it might lead to disaster. Therefore it is important that everybody involved in the mining operation must know exactly how to use their mining tools properly. Each worker should be properly and thoroughly trained to use every part of mining equipment they will be using. Also the workers should be educated about the safety measures in using the mining equipments.
