Continuous miner 14CM9

The 14CM9 continuous miner, with a solid-head cutting head system, features a 762 mm (30 in.) conveyor width for narrow entry applications. Traction system The 14CM9 includes our patented OptiDrive AC traction system, which is coupled to a compact, all-gear transmission to provide smooth, reliable service. The cutter motor feedback and the traction differential features optimize sump performance even in the most demanding applications. Finally, the brushless AC traction motors are highly reliable and require minimal maintenance. Cutting system Joy is known worldwide for the highest performing, most reliable cutter head gear cases in the industry. The 14CM9 includes a solid-head cutting head system, with a variety of cutter bit lacing configurations available. Hydraulic system Our hydraulic manifolds, standard on all continuous miner models, reduce hose assemblies and fitting counts to significantly reduce hydraulic fluid leak points. All serviceable parts for a circuit are in one common location and all pressure check points allow gauge connection/disconnection. Screw-adjusted relief valves are standard, while bolt-on caps permit easy access for troubleshooting/replacement on hydraulic or water segments.
