Mining machines, which are mostly used in road construction, mining and construction projects, are divided into different types with different applications.
In this article, we will talk about mining machines that are mostly used in road construction. In order to learn more about the types of these types of machines and their use in road construction, first of all, we should familiarize ourselves with the types of these machines, each of which is divided into different types according to the function. In general, these machines are divided into the following groups: 1- Tractors 2- Bulldozers 3- Excavators 4- Skippers 5- Loaders 6- Trucks 7- Trailer 8- Grader 9- Rollers It should be noted that each of these machines has different types according to the type of use they are used in this industry, which will be briefly described about their overall function:Tractors:
The general job of the tractor is to push forward or pull various types of loads, which of course has many other uses, for example, various types of mechanical equipment are installed on the tractor, which makes it have various uses and the tractor consider it one of the most important and practical road construction machines. Tractors consist of two groups of rubber wheels and chain wheels, and they are diesel.
Bullders:
There are many uses defined for bulldozers, and this device has the ability to do many things, including leveling the ground and clearing it of bushes and tree trunks, and leveling other obstacles, as well as creating basic roads in the mountains and fields. It includes rocking and moving soil masses and even spreading soil and filling pits.
Mechanical shovels:
One of the first modern machines in road construction is an excavator, which has many uses, the most important of which is digging in the soil and loading in a truck. It is interesting to know that the powerful types of these machines are capable of excavating in all types of soil, of course, except for rocks, which can be loaded with these machines if they have already been destroyed.
Skipper:
It is used for medium and long distance loading. These machines consist of three parts, which are divided into the loading part (cup), the front wall of the loading part and the unloading wall, and it consists of two types with motor and without motor. It is known that its non-motorized version is currently less used.
Loadrs:
It is safe to say that the most practical machines for road construction and mining are loaders, because other devices can be installed on them that are used even in other fields, such as piping, snow removal, forklifts, etc.
Creating embankments, filling ditches, loading concrete trucks, etc. are among the functions of loaders, which are divided into different types, including: rubber wheel loaders, chain wheel loaders, and backhoe loaders.Trucks:
Although skippers and belts can be used to transport soil, trucks are the best option for transporting soil on smooth surfaces because they have the ability to load more and have a higher speed and efficiency and are divided into two types: Normal trucks and back breaking trucks.
