Epiroc has launched the new Minetruck MT22 designed for mining operations with small drift sizes, delivering increased effectiveness, reduced exhaust emissions, lower fuel consumption, and extended service intervals.
“We are proud to introduce the Minetruck MT22, which succeeds Epiroc’s smallest underground truck, the Minetruck MT2200. While retaining the same exterior design, it introduces several key upgrades, most notably the Stage V engine option and European Conformity certification,” said Prerna Devkar, global product manager, Minetruck Small Segment.
“In addition to the [Cummins QSL9 Stage V] engine, the new Minetruck MT22 offers other engine variants, including China IV and Tier III, giving customers the flexibility to choose based on their specific needs and preferences.”
Beyond the engine upgrade, the Minetruck MT22 incorporates several improvements over its predecessor, such as an integrated load weighing system and an optional 3-point seatbelt –both aimed at boosting productivity and enhancing safety in mining operations.
It also features an advanced after-treatment system that significantly reduces harmful emissions. This improves underground air quality without compromising performance, making it ideal for demanding duty cycles.
The Minetruck MT22 is currently available for order.
