High Productivity 35 Tonne Capacity Electric Minetruck from Atlas Copco

The Electric Minetruck EMT35 is a 35 t, high-productivity load capacity underground truck. It is around two times as fast as any diesel truck with the same capacity making it the most productive truck worldwide. The axles are directly driven by high efficiency electric motors increasing transmission losses. The energy is returned to the grid by regenerative braking.
