MacLean Engineering

RB3–Mobile Rockbreaker

Oversize fragmented at source without damage to draw point infrastructure and minimizing blockages in the ore flow system downstream
Eliminates non-productive boulder re-handling by LHDs
Improvement in LHD Maintenance cost and their availability
Increased Stope area productivity
Provides real-time rockbreaking capability without need for explosives and associated negative effects of blasting on mine infrastructure and ventilation
RB3–Mobile Rockbreaker
The MacLean Advantage:
 
Safe and efficient breaking of ore flow blockage is of prime importance for sustained underground production and profitability, particularly in block cave mines. The MacLean mobile rock breaker is the latest addition to the MacLean fleet of ore flow equipment and, with it, companies now have a one-stop solution for all their block cave mine production needs. Combining MacLean-quality ruggedness and performance with industry-leading ergonomics and all-round operator visibility, the RB3 is truly a groundbreaker.
