Second Cat~R GH800B Longwall Plow System Goes To Thin-Seam Anthracite Mine

摘要

The German Ibbenburen mins is adding a second Cat~R GH800B Longwall Plow System to recover its thin seam of anthracite coal-averaging only 1.04 meters thick. RAG Anthrazit IbbenbOren GmbH placed the order for a second system based on the productive performance of the first Cat GH800B system. IbbenbOren installed the very first GH800B system in late 2013, and it has been effectively working in heights of 0.8 to 1.2 meters. The new system is scheduled to start producing in July on a 220-meter face.
