LHDs & Dump Trucks - GHH FAHRZEUGE

Since 1964 GHH LHD´s and dump trucks have been utilized around the world in mining and tunneling. GHH Equipment is manufactured in Germany and is designed for maximum quality and durability resulting in minimum lifecycle cost.

PRODUCT CATEGORIES

DIESEL LHDs

GHH Diesel LHDs are particularly compact with an optimal operator’s position. The lateral arrangement of the operator seat guarantees optimal views for forward and backward tramming.

Capacities ranging between 3 to 21 tons, respectively from 1.5 to 14 m³ (1.3 to 18.3 yd³). The LHDs are globally used in underground mining, tunneling, hydro-power and other civil construction projects.

The “plain-tech” LHDs are characterized by robustness and the “high-tech” LHDs additionally by our efficient hydrostatic drive train (EDS) combined with best in class exhaust after treatment. Safety, ergonomics and maintainability are some of the key features of our design.

SUPER LOW PROFILE LHDs

GHH Fahrzeuge has the largest portfolio of “super low profile” – LHDs (SLP), with capacities ranging between 3 and 21 tons. The long-term experience of GHH Fahrzeuge in low profile applications in the platinum and chrome mines in Southern Africa as well as in European potash mines is reflected in the design of our vehicles. 

Our vehicles are optimized for such special conditions and enable a highly-efficient selective extraction in low profile room-and-pillar mining. Also in this range safety and maintainability are major topics the designing department of GHH takes care of.

FLAME PROOF LHDs

GHH Fahrzeuge also manufactures Diesel LHDs for use in hazardous underground environments where explosive mine gases may occur. In addition to coal mining, there are also other deposits with such hazard potential (e.g. methane) in which only flameproof/permissible equipment may be used. 

Our flameproof LHDs are based on long-time proven vehicles and are equipped exclusively with high-quality explosion-protected components from renowned suppliers. Currently, we have the low profile multi-purpose SLP-5FP (Flameproof) and the LF-10Ex (explosionproof) in our product portfolio.

DUMP TRUCKS

GHH Fahrzeuge manufactures articulated dump trucks for mining and tunneling with capacities from 15 to 35 tons. Our vehicles are characterized by their compact dimensions and high maneuverability with a swivel hinge. 

The vehicles are characterized by an excellent power to weight ratio to ensure high speeds even in high gradients. The particularly basic and robust design of the vehicles ensures a long service life at low operating costs. 

Whereas the MK-A15 and the MK-A20 have lateral operator seats, the MK-A35 has a bi-directional cabin in order to move the vehicle faster in both directions. Thus, time-consuming maneuvers may be avoided. For high productivity our dump trucks may be combined optimally with GHH Fahrzeuge LHDs.

TELESCOPIC TRUCKS

For low profile applications GHH Fahrzeuge manufactures a telescopic truck based on a standard underground dump truck.

The telescopic truck SK-A30 was specifically designed for low profile mining. Due to the front axle suspension the dump truck has an ideal ground contact, regardless of whether the vehicle is empty or loaded. 

This is guaranteed even at high speeds with bad ground conditions exceeding 30 km/h. Whether the loading is done by roadheaders or by LHDs with an ejector bucket a secure and fast loading is guaranteed due to its good visibility and maneuverability. 

By means of hydraulic cylinders and a “push plate” a fast, smooth and low-wear discharge is guaranteed. This avoids the need for extensive expansions at the transfer points. Different cabin designs are offered for different applications.

LOW PROFILE DUMP TRUCKS

Matching its broad SLP LHD range GHH Fahrzeuge manufactures low profile dump trucks with capacities from 20 to 35 tons which are based on standard machines. 

Our vehicles are characterized by their compact dimensions and high maneuverability with a swivel hinge. The machines have an excellent power to weight ratio to ensure high speed haulage even in steep gradients. 

The particularly basic and robust design of the vehicles ensures a long service life at low operating costs.

FLAME PROOF DUMP TRUCKS

Based on the well-proven MK-A20, GHH Fahrzeuge offers the flameproof/permissible version MK-A20Ex.

The machine complies with the ATEX directive. The MK-A20Ex may be ideally combined with the LF-10Ex.
