QUARRY TRACTION UNITS

Quarry Traction Units

Quarry Traction Complex MPE2U

Purpose and Specifications:

The DC quarry traction complex MPE2U, developed by JSC Elmavalmshenebeli, is engineered for transporting heavy ore masses across mining and metallurgical enterprises and open-pit quarries under challenging terrain and steep gradient conditions.

The complex comprises a central control locomotive and motorized side-dumping cars (dumpcars), delivering tremendous tractive effort and maximum adhesion. It is equipped with microprocessor control and modern safety systems.

The complex distributes immense tractive effort across 12 motorized axles to overcome extreme open-cast mine inclines with loads exceeding 3,000 tons. It is deployed at AGMK's Kalmakyr deposit.

Export and International Cooperation:

In 2020, the enterprise manufactured and delivered the first unit, MPE2U-001, to the Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex (AGMK) in Uzbekistan. In 2021, the second unit of this series, MPE2U-002, was successfully built and handed over to the client.
