Tender Details
Tender Description
The design and supply of development equipment for an underground coal mining operation which is capable of supporting a longwall coal operation.
Procurement is for the supply of three standard development units including the development transformer (continuous miner, shuttle car, breaker feeder, auxiliary fan, DCB, supply pods). Equipment is to be designed for a development roadway of 5.4m wide and 3.7m, forming longwall gateroads and Main headings high using in-place roof and rib support. Equipment must be suitable for working on gradients up to 1:6 and be able to form cut throughs at 90 degrees. Suppliers should consider equipment with low floor bearing pressures as the HCU seam is likely to have weak floor which is reactive to water. Dust reduction should also be considered.
