Metalloinvest purchases a new high-powered excavator for Lebedinsky GOK

Press Releases

A new high-capacity excavator with a bucket volume of 20 m3 (EKG-20) has started work in the open pit of Lebedinsky GOK (part of the Metalloinvest company). This and other modern powerful production machines are regularly supplied to the plant as part of Metalloinvest's investment program to modernize the mining and transportation complex.

Now the Lebedinsky miners have three EKG-20s at their disposal. Together with BelAZ trucks with a carrying capacity of 220 tons, they form highly efficient complexes for the transportation of rock mass. This tandem takes three minutes to fully load the tipper body.

The new excavator is characterized by increased efficiency, power and reliability, while the presence of a centralized lubrication system greatly simplifies its routine maintenance. A modern video surveillance system opens a 360-degree view for the driver, and an online electronic panel reflects the weight of the load, the trajectory of movement, the state of the main components and mechanisms.

Comfortable working conditions are created in the excavator driver's cab: there is a comfortable modern chair, excellent noise and dust insulation, a climate control system, as well as a microwave oven and a kettle.

“Our new excavator is a real hero, but with its own weight of more than 700 tons, it is easy to operate and has high maneuverability,” said Mikhail Pavlov, mining excavator operator. The future belongs to big buckets, big power and true professionals. When you see that the company is developing, equipping itself, then naturally, you strive to develop yourself ”.
