2024 Komatsu Shearers 7LS5B

Need a way to move 20,000 lb.+ loads quickly, safely and efficiently The FH series integrates components and technology proven over many years in Komatsu’s wheel loaders, bulldozers and excavators, so you know they’re built tough. The hydrostatic (HST) drive system allows FH100 series forklifts to shuttle back and forth in high-cycle operations with virtually no wear on drive and brake components, meaning more uptime and reduced maintenance costs. That translates to better performance than traditional torque converter systems, even in the most demanding applications.

Features may include:

• Three high-tensile fabrications comprise the body of the Joy shearer, forming a slim main section with no under-frame. Eliminating the under-frame allows more material passage under the body, easier transport, quicker adaptation to different mining scenarios, efficient rebuilds, easier maintenance.

• Be confident your shearer will offer outstanding reliability. Ranging arm and haulage gear trains consist of robust spur gears incorporating decades of experience. State-of-the-art gear design software and meticulous load-testing help make the Joy shearer even more reliable.

• Primary haulage gear case contained in a frame mounted to both sides of controller case. Inside the gear case are straight-cut spur gears manufactured to exacting standards. 7LS shearer can match tractive effort increase delivered by higher power-density motors.

• Experience the difference custom-designed drums can make for your operation. Using a three-axis digital lacing machine to manufacture custom-designed drums results in precise bit locations and angles. Final machining is accomplished with CNC turning centers to achieve precise fit.

• Equip your shearer with “T” style or “D” style Cowles blades. More compact “T” Cowles blades may perform better in drum loading by allowing more free-flowing material. Wider “D” Cowles blades are stronger, can take more abuse in harsh conditions.
