LOAD & HAUL
The L440B battery-powered LHD, coming in a few months, with a 4.5 tramming capacity
more than three times that of the L140B. The fi rst units are due to leave the technical centre in France over the coming months. Aramine’s battery-powered
machines are designed to operate in the most demanding underground environments. Their electric motors off er a number of advantages - fi rst, they signifi cantly reduce CO2 emissions, thereby improving air quality in mines. According to the European Union’s ADEME CO2 emissions factor, each L440B saves 438t of CO2e, over 8000 hours of use compared with its diesel equivelant, leading to a reduction of 17kg of CO2e per hour of use.
Additionally, these machines reduce
noise pollution and heat, helping to create a more pleasant and safe working environment for operators. With cutting-edge battery
technologies, these machines can operate for extended periods without interruption, reducing the need for frequent recharges leading to increased productivity and reduced operating costs. In addition, battery- powered machines generally require less maintenance than their diesel counterparts since they have fewer
moving parts, which reduces the risk of mechanical failures and maintenance costs. Finally, downtime is minimised and the machines can remain operational for longer, maximising their eff iciency and profi tability. As well as designing battery-
powered machines, Aramine is improving the life cycle of its batteries with much consideration of how they can be reused. Since mines are often located in isolated areas, renewable energy is ideal for facilitating the transport of electricity to them. Aramine therefore off ers its customers a solar station for recharging L140B batteries. This solution is particularly useful in areas with high levels of sunshine.

Aramine’s eShop
In line with its ‘pioneering spirit’ and demonstrating its resolute focus on the digital transition, Aramine launched its eshop a few months ago. The shop, available via
shop.aramine. com, offers 850,000 computerised spare parts references for all types of mining machinery. Sales at the shop are rising steadily, and saw a particularly good performance in the fi rst-quarter 2024, thanks to the renewed confi dence of customers. Feedback has been that they appreciate the
‘company’s responsiveness and effi ciency’, according to Aramine.
