Abstract

At present there is a choice between several kinds of equipment for face loading in quarries: rope shovels, wheel loaders, crawler machines and hydraulic shovels. The relative merits of these types of equipment are discussed; the design of future equipment will depend on speculation as to the methods of quarrying which will become predominant over the next 10 years.<br />At present there is a choice between several kinds of equipment for face loading in quarries: rope shovels, wheel loaders, crawler machines and hydraulic shovels.
