«ARGO machines have proved to be quite reliable load-haul-dumpers with rarely occurring faults or malfunctions. The high-tech equipment is characterized by an excellent mobility, long range and fast recharge rate, not to mention a high level of safety, minimum heat loss, and low noise. And we are indeed happy to have them,» says foreman Sergey Vishnevsky.
The LHDs are used in sinking, extraction and tunneling operations.
