Key Product Highlights:

 

340 kW Transverse Cutting System: The EBH340 uses a low-speed, high-torque transverse cutting head driven by a 340 kW cutting motor.

 

140 t Heavy-Duty Stable Chassis: Machine stability is critical when cutting strong rock. The EBH340 combines a 140 t machine weight with a wide crawler base and a low center of gravity. The entire frame is made of Q460 high-strength alloy steel, and the low center of gravity and wide body design ensure excellent stability during hard rock cutting, effectively preventing tool skipping and excessive vibration.

 

A uniquely patented horizontal axis cutting head design, equipped with 186 high-strength alloy tooth holders. The scientifically designed tooth distribution improves rock-breaking efficiency by 35% compared to traditional models and increases wear resistance by 50%. Combined with an anti-detachment tooth holder design, it significantly reduces the frequency of tooth replacement underground.

 

High-Capacity Loading and Conveying: The EBH340 is equipped with a four-claw star-wheel loading system rated at up to 400 m³/h. The double-chain scraper conveyor provides a rated conveying capacity of up to 480 m³/h.

 

A 45㎡ tunnel can be formed in one go, eliminating the need for segmented widening and trimming processes. This allows for efficient excavation of ultra-large cross-sections, significantly increasing monthly tunneling capacity.

 

Intelligent Control and Fault Diagnosis: The electrical system utilizes a top-tier international configuration: an imported Finnish EPEC controller and a German Moeller main switch. The IP67-protected control box easily handles the humid and dusty underground environment. A 23-category fault self-diagnostic engine monitors equipment status in real time. Reserved RS485/CAN/Ethernet multi-protocol IoT interfaces support remote monitoring via mobile APP and allow for rapid upgrades to an intelligent tunneling system.

 

Dust Suppression and Equipment Protection: The EBH340 provides an internal spray pressure of at least 2 MPa and an external spray pressure of at least 4 MPa. Optional cutterhead shielding can provide additional protection against dust and flying rock in highly abrasive working conditions.

 

With 7 customization options, one machine can meet the needs of all deep hard rock development roadway excavation in a mine.

The cutting head features anti-detachment tooth seats, reducing tooth wear and downhole replacement frequency.

 

2. Reinforced Cantilever Section

The internal structure is reinforced to withstand greater axial force and eccentric load generated by hard rock impact, solving the persistent problems of bearing wear, oil leakage, and high temperature in traditional models under hard rock conditions.

The floating seal uses a double-layer leak-proof and dust-proof seal, significantly improving seal life and reducing oil leakage failures.

Body and Structure: High-Strength and Durable Design

Material Upgrade: The entire frame uses Q460 high-strength alloy steel (replacing traditional Q345), increasing structural strength by 35% and significantly enhancing fatigue resistance.

Low center of gravity and wide span: The wide body and low center of gravity provide strong stability when cutting hard rock, reducing the risk of cutter skipping and ensuring cutting accuracy and operational safety.

Wear-resistant chute treatment: Key chute parts are reinforced with wear-resistant alloy welding or wear-resistant plates, doubling the service life compared to ordinary models.

Mechanical anti-collision: Mechanical anti-collision devices are added to the shovel and cutting sections to prevent damage from accidental collisions with the star wheel drive and cutting arm.

Hydraulic System: High-efficiency and Stable Operation

Utilizing a load-sensitive multi-way valve, the hydraulic system offers precise response, smooth operation, and lower energy consumption.

Centralized lubrication of key components makes downhole maintenance more convenient; the external hydraulic refueling pump makes downhole refueling operations safer and more efficient.

Electrical and Safety Protection: High-Reliability Design for Downhole Operations

The control box boasts an IP67 protection rating, offering excellent waterproof and dustproof performance. It can easily handle the complex, humid, and dusty environments of downhole operations, ensuring durability. Both the control box and electrical control box are equipped with displays, providing dual-position synchronous display of equipment parameters. Operation and maintenance status are clearly visible, offering convenience and efficiency.

Safety Features: Standard features include personnel proximity alarm, anti-accidental touch, and emergency stop functions, enhancing the safety of downhole operations.

Electrical Control System: Utilizing imported EPEC series controllers to construct a dual-redundant human-machine interface system. A distributed control network is formed through the intrinsically safe control box (ExibⅠ certified) and the HMI on the left door of the electrical control box. Integrated LCD Chinese display screen shows real-time information including motor status, real-time voltage, current, winding temperature, hydraulic system oil temperature and level, main water flow rate of the cooling system, tunneling machine body angle, and real-time time. It also features a fault self-diagnosis engine with 23 built-in fault diagnosis algorithms, supporting overcurrent (>120%In), overvoltage (>110%Un), phase loss, stall, and other anomaly detection. It can effectively view historical fault records, with a storage capacity of no less than 1000 records. It has an emergency start module: equipped with an industrial-grade matrix keyboard (IP65 protection), supporting manual forced start circuit (requires dual password verification).
