— Swing Tail Loader · Towed Behind the Miner
Hopper Swing Tail Loader
180-degree boom swing. Loads in tight places behind a continuous or bore miner.
A towed loading boom powered by auxiliary hydraulics from the miner or by electric power. Its boom swings up to 180 degrees and elevates up to 10 feet, so it loads into a shuttle car, mine car, or conveyor even in the tightest places.
— WHY THE Hopper Swing Tail Loader
Key advantages
Swing
180-Degree Boom Swing
Full 180-degree swing gives the operator a wide range of loading positions, especially useful where the haulage unit cannot line up directly behind the miner.
Articulation
45-Degree Mid Articulation
The boom articulates midway up to 45 degrees for precise placement into shuttle cars, mine cars, or conveyors in confined spaces.
Discharge
Up to 10-Foot Elevation
The discharge end elevates up to 10 feet, giving you the height needed to load into any haulage unit your operation runs.
PowerDual
Power Options
Powered by auxiliary hydraulics from the miner it follows, or by electric power. Configured to your operation and available power source.
— TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Built to the numbers
— Engineered From the Ground Up
Customized to virtually any operation
Virtually every aspect of each Hopper can be custom tailored to your specific needs and constraints, including power source, boom configuration, and discharge height. Initially designed for potash and salt mining, it adapts to virtually any underground operation. If you have a specific miner or haulage setup, our engineering team will build the Hopper around it.
