The inhalation of exhaust gases from diesel vehicles is a significant health
risk for mine workers. Often lung and respiratory diseases are the result of
many years of underground activity. Emission-free electromobility can reduce
the risks - a new trend to which the globally operating specialist for
mining and tunneling vehicles, Emsbürener Hermann Paus Maschinenfabrik GmbH,
now also devotes. The first electric and hybrid vehicles from the
cooperation with the company Danfoss Mobile Electrification will be
delivered to customers shortly. For more information see the IDTechEx report
on on electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles in mining. 

In Canada, the use of diesel vehicles in first mines has already been
banned. Paus is now offering for the first time a universal vehicle for
mining as a hybrid or electric variant, which corresponds to the trend
towards locally emission-free underground mining. With its compact
dimensions and a payload of 1.2 tons, it is particularly suitable for
passenger and material transport in mines. 

The electric drive train system EDITRON is supplied by Danfoss Mobile
Electrification for the all-wheel-drive off-highway vehicle MinCa 5.1 in two
variants:

 - As a pure electric drive with 50 kilowatt electric motor and a battery
system with 50 kilowatt hours for 3-4 hours of work 

 - As a hybrid drive with 50 kilowatt electric motor, a range extender and a
battery sys- tem with 20 kilowatt hours for 12 hours of work 

In addition to the health protection of mine workers, customers based in,
for example, North and South America, Russia or Australia benefit from up to
50 percent lower fuel costs for construction site work. In addition, the
abandonment of diesel vehicles generally improves air quality - so the cost
of ventilation systems can also be minimized. 

Electric Vehicles and Autonomous Vehicles in Mining

The universal vehicle MinCa 5.1 is produced in Emsbüren and has been on the
market for two years as a diesel vehicle. The electric and hybrid version,
which was developed and tested in cooperation with Paus and Danfoss in
recent months, is now going into series production. The first copies of the
four-wheel drive vehicle will be delivered to customers of the two companies
later this year.
