Mining and infrastructure powerhouse Epiroc has signed a memorandum of understanding with major underground mining contractor Byrnecut on the development of the “next generation” electric drive underground loaders.
“We are proud to deepen our partnership with Byrnecut with the development of a future-proof, low-emission automated loader in the large segment,” says Sami Niiranen, president of Epiroc’s Underground division. “This will support Byrnecut to accelerate the transformation toward reduced emissions as well as overall TCO, without any compromise on safety and productivity.”
