PMC-D/PMC-D20 underground longwal

  • Industry underground-longwall
  • Overview The intrinsically safe Cat® PMC-D control is used on shearer or plow faces to provide high level AFC (armed face conveyor) and plow automation. Each Drive unit needs to be equipped with one PMC-D control unit and equivalent I/O to operate the CST drives or UEL gearbox functions. In such a system a Cat PMC-V provides the Human Machine Interface (HMI) to interfere with the PMC-D controls to operate manual mode, visualize and change parameters and show actual process values. Within a PMC-D system minimum one and typically up to 3 PMC-Vs are in equal operation. The PMC-D system can control extremely sensitive the speed and torque of highly powered AFC CST drive. Using Profibus network all PMC-Ds and PMC-Vs in a system could exchange process data over long distances with high frequency.

  • Overview: Moving Mountains - No matter how fast your shearer can cut, you can't keep cutting until you move the coal away from the face. Cat® Armored Face Conveyors (AFCs) are designed to keep things moving and to carry the maximum possible amount of coal smoothly away from the coalface. They are designed for high availability and economy in operation. They are easy to maintain and offer long service life and a great return on investment to mine operators.

  • Overview: Cat® Controlled Start Transmission (CST) drive systems optimize the use of power for maximum production capacities. Ever more powerful systems require ever more horsepower, heavier chains and faster conveyor speed with maximum availability. What was needed was a truly intelligent drive system for face conveyors, which led our engineers to develop the Controlled Start Transmission (CST) drive system meeting the following requirements: • Currently available power up to 1200 kW (1,950 hp) per transmission unit • Safe startup of the face conveyor • Full utilization of the installed power • Highly durable components • Compact dimensions • High level of efficiency
