Bulk Material Handling, Rail Veyor at Vale Underground Mine,Sudbury 

Thanks for the positive feedback IKS Production Team!

I can see possible applications in the amusement park industry.

Lol at the end weeeeee CRACK dead

Hi

He was also supposed to clean any spillage up as well

Wow. Sorry I'm just getting to see this comment. Each system is engineered to meet the specifications of the mine... both in tonnage and speed. And the speeds are variable. Loading at one speed, tramming at another speed, unloading at yet another speed, and return to loading... yup, another speed.

It's actually a maintenance dream! Life of most equipment is 20 years. Tires about 2 years. If you'd like a presentation on all the innovations we designed into the train system, we'd be happy to demonstrate it to you.

billybonewhacker no, mcnuckel farley wrenches are not compatible, your crew will need an adjustable veeblefetzer as the bushings are encased in fallopian tubing.

NoiseSpektrum ahhh a traditionalist well its good to know they're still out there. Well I've got to get back to putting cotter keys on my walnuts before the big wind storm hits here in who ville. Thanks for the help

No because they go up side down the track must twist at some point to re orientate them.

@@zerofox7347 No, the carts are upside down for quarter of a mile (so they can all dump), then the whole 'train' reverses and it goes back underground..

Yeah...my question too! What happens when a track switch fails or a rail breaks...and the thing derails? Who cleans that up?

Yes it is. As far as I know, this is just a prototype for now. I can't remember at which mine it is located at though. But the company's office is on Fielding Road near Lively. It's an entire brand new mining method that is made in Sudbury. :-)

gtz

Oh! I see

The company is from sudbury but none of our mines use this. This mine is in val dor.

@@marcverdon4774 this is north mine in Sudbury. I’ve never seen it used but it’s there. Close to the smoke stack.

Sudbury is a copper mine. It's been in operation for a little more then a century.

Jonathan Langlois Actually, it’s primarily a nickel mine.

You are wrong in your basic assumption. Coal will go away...but so will industry. The reason is because "green" energy can not supply the industrial power needs of an industrial society. Every jurisdiction that has tried to go green, like Germany for example, has hit their citizens with energy poverty and the most vulnerable have to choose between food and heat...many have DIED. It was very telling to see diesel generators at the Bonn climate conference in Germany...so much for renewables eh?. And so what will these highly educated people do when there is no industry to design high tech equipment for...or no industry to regulate as a highly educated bureaucrat? And because there will be no industry, there will be no wages going to buy high tech consumer goods either The only jobs available will be working for the Sierra Club, or Tides foundation as an activist. As far as education goes, education is not a right...it's something you should have to earn. Those that struggle to be in school, try harder to succeed in school, and become the best in their chosen field...when you let anyone and everyone in, you have automatically lowered the standard of education and therefore, the quality of education as well. Right now we have people with Masters degrees driving cab...in the future, most McDonald's employees will have PHD's.

Mark, where ever you're getting your information from, find a few more different sources. You will be better informed.

Mark, you need to stay up to date on current events. Coal is on its way out because natural gas is so much cheaper. It has nothing to do with "green" energy or environmental rules. Coal used to be the cheapest; not any more.

you're not very bright politically

This is a Nickle mine though….
