Abstract

Theoretical and methodological fundamentals of mining haul trucks optimal design are articulated. Methods based on the systems approach to integrated assessment of truck technical level and methods for optimization of truck parameters depending on performance standards are provided. The results of using these methods are given. The developed method allows not only assessing the truck technical levels but also choosing the most promising models and providing quantitative evaluations of the decisions to be made at the design stage. These areas are closely connected with the problem of improvement in the industrial output quality, which, being a part of the widely spread in Western world “total quality control” ideology, is one of the major issues for the Russian economy.

Highlights

  • Technical re-equipment of open-pit mining facilities and further development and upgrades of automotive mining machinery are inextricably linked

  • The analysis of conditions and practices in mining machinery operation enabled to ascertain that the structure of “BelAZ” truck fleet is of relatively low quality

  • At present the number of guidance papers and materials for mining trucks adequate assessment and recommendations aimed at their technical level increase is not sufficient

Summary

Increasing the technical level of mining haul trucks
