Sandvik Drill Rigs

Sandvik drill rigs are well-known for their innovative designs and robust performance, making them essential for both underground and surface drilling operations. The Underground Drill Rigs, which include models like the Sandvik DD422i, DD322i, DD311, and DD212i, are equipped with powerful diesel engines such as the TCD3.6 with 100 kW and the TCD2.2 with 55 kW. These engines are specifically engineered for efficient development and production drilling in challenging environments.

On the surface, the Leopard™ DI650i is a standout diesel-powered, crawler-mounted down-the-hole rig. It is optimized for high-capacity production drilling in both surface mining and quarries. Minetek’s sound attenuation solutions enhance the operational efficiency of Sandvik drill rigs by maintaining optimal airflow to prevent machine overheating, ensuring continuous operation. These solutions also provide easy maintenance access to minimize downtime and help preserve machine payloads while reducing noise, all while meeting the necessary OEM back pressure standards.

Sandvik Haul Trucks

Sandvik haul trucks are designed to significantly enhance productivity in mining and excavation operations, thanks to their impressive payload capacities and advanced technology. Known for their durability and reliability, these trucks are equipped with high-performance engines that offer excellent fuel efficiency while minimizing environmental impact.

Models such as the Sandvik TH663i and TH430 are specifically engineered to navigate challenging terrains, ensuring the smooth transport of materials from the worksite to processing areas. In addition to their robust performance, Sandvik haul trucks come with advanced safety features, including innovative braking systems and driver assistance technologies, which enhance operational safety in demanding environments.

When paired with Minetek’s sound attenuation capabilities, Sandvik haul trucks help create a quieter work environment, reducing noise pollution both on and around the job site. This integration ensures compliance with regulatory noise standards while maintaining optimal airflow to prevent machine overheating. It also safeguards equipment integrity, sustains payload capacity, and allows for easy access during routine maintenance.

Sandvik Loaders

Sandvik loaders are renowned for their robust performance and reliability in various mining and construction applications. To further enhance their operational efficiency, integrating Minetek’s sound attenuation solutions plays a crucial role. By maintaining optimal airflow, these innovative solutions help prevent machine overheating, thereby ensuring that Sandvik loaders can operate continuously without the risk of thermal-related failures. This seamless airflow management extends the machinery’s life and optimizes its productivity in demanding environments.

Additionally, Minetek’s sound attenuation solutions are designed with maintenance in mind. They facilitate easy access to critical components, which significantly minimizes downtime during routine checks and repairs. This is essential for preserving machine payloads and ensuring that performance remains uncompromised. The noise reduction capabilities of these solutions provide a quieter working environment, enhancing comfort and safety for operators. Importantly, these systems adhere to necessary OEM back pressure standards, ensuring that the performance of Sandvik loaders is maximized while meeting industry regulations. Overall, the combination of Sandvik’s engineering excellence and Minetek’s advanced solutions creates a potent duo for optimized machine operation.
