The haulage system designer and manufacturer will showcase its range during the Asia-Pacific’s International Mining Exhibition in Sydney from September 6-9.

The Brisbane-based company uses its patented Powertruck and Powertrailer systems to combine Powertrans’ prime movers, powered trailers and dollies to suit a road train combination.

Powertrans sales and marketing manager Howard Wilson said the haulage systems were flexible and cost effective and offered high productivity without compromising safety.

“Powered trailers are used to give excellent power-to-weight ratios, relatively high haul speeds over long distances, and faster hauls of inclines out of underground mines or mining pits,” Wilson said.

Since establishing in 2001, Powertrans has launched the Powertrans Underground Mining Haulage and Surface Mining Haulage system.

Wilson said the ranges included proven and reliable products that performed well in harsh conditions.

Powertrans will be at stand B1097 during AIMEX.
