Mining

Any profitable mining operation requires high productivity and minimized tonnage costs. So it’s all about availability in the extreme operating conditions of mines and quarries. Black Bruin’s mobile and industrial hydraulic motors provide the reliable power needed by crushers, conveyors and other mining equipment. All of their torque-transmitting components are designed to support a smooth and safe operation.

Born under pressure

Precious metals and Black Bruin hydraulic motors have a lot in common. We know that diamonds are formed at extremely high temperature and pressure, and very slowly. Black Bruin wheel hub motors for their part were born of the necessity to move and carry heavy loads in difficult snowy terrain in Finland back at the turn of the 50s and 60s. And they continue to prove their worth in various mobile applications around the world, transferring the drive and rotating power where it is needed, under the load. When your surface or underground mining operation needs constant power with low speed at high torque, Black Bruin hydraulic direct drive could just be the right choice.

For stationary applications

In the extreme operating conditions of mines and quarries, availability is key. Every action and the entire line of superior technology must be geared towards energy efficiency and maximized production time. There’s just no room for unexpected failures and downtime, not in the utility vehicles and not in the production machinery. Black Bruin motors are an integral part of reliable solutions to keep the plant and process up and running – with the lowest total cost of ownership over the lifetime of the plant and minimal environmental burden.

For mobile applications

In the mine environment, space is limited so technical solutions allowing freedom of design are indispensable. Black Bruin’s original wheel-hub motors with high shaft load are compact and require less space than most other options. They promote agility and a small turning radius. The freewheeling feature reduces the equipments’ energy consumption and fuel costs and the low-pressure brake with mechanical release can be used without limits in emergency situations.
