The 12HM36 continuous miner, with a dual gathering head system, is ideal for industrial mineral mining applications, including trona, gypsum, potash, and salt. The 12HM36, with a 1473 mm (58 in.) cutter head diameter, is one of the largest and most powerful drum-style continuous miner in our product lineup.
Cutting system
The 12HM36 is a Ripperveyor cutting head system, with a variety of cutter bit lacing configurations available.
Bolted construction
Since many industrial mineral mines have shaft restrictions, the 12HM36 comes in several bolted configurations to accommodate these restrictions. This continuous miner is designed to be assembled on site without, or with very limited, component welding.
