FS 200 is a longwall shearer of exceptional construction, enabling operation in 1.0-1.9 thick seams. The machine is compatible with the FFC 750 armoured face conveyor with Eicotrack chainless haulage system positioned at the gob side.
It is applied for bi-directional pocketless cutting and loading of coal in a longwall mining system of seams with longitudinal inclination of up to 35° and transverse inclination of up to 25° upwards and 15° downwards. The haulage drive control is effected by means of an inverter installed in the gate, which improves the maintenance service.
Through the compatibility with the e-mine system the shearer is provided with the function of advanced diagnostics of subassemblies and full monitoring of the machine operating parameters, including the data transmission to the mine surface.
The FS 200 shearer can be supplied in the e-longwall standard along with additional equipment enabling operation in memory cut cycle.
