Key Product Highlights:

 

It adopts a patented rear-end clamping cutting head with 45 sets of high-strength alloy tooth seats arranged with optimized mechanics, improving rock-breaking efficiency by 35% and wear resistance by 50%. The cutting head has an internal independent spline lubrication oil channel for continuous lubrication of the transmission pair. The cantilever is equipped with double-layered dustproof floating seals to isolate rock dust and water mist, completely solving high-frequency failures such as high bearing temperature, oil seepage, and spline wear during long-term operation in deep, hard rock. It also features anti-detachment limit tooth seats, significantly reducing the frequency of downtime for replacing cutting teeth. The 250mm deep bottom-laying design ensures no residual rock remains at the bottom of the roadway, eliminating the need for manual cleaning.

 

The 39㎡ roadway is formed in a single pass, eliminating the need for manual widening and trimming, increasing effective tunneling time per shift, accelerating mining and tunneling connections, and improving raw coal production efficiency.

 

A 400m³/h four-claw star wheel shovel paired with a 480m³/h side double-chain scraper conveyor allows for direct transport of large rocks without manual crushing, preventing rock pile-up and jamming. The shovel and chute are fully welded with wear-resistant alloy, ensuring long-term durability in high-rock-producing working faces.

 

Full-chain safety protection and real-time fault warnings reduce unexpected downtime. The machine is designed with a complete intelligent upgrade channel, and the construction of smart mines can be promoted later by simply adding supporting modules without replacing the entire machine. The equipment has a significant advantage in terms of input-output ratio throughout its entire life cycle.
