See through ice - the world's largest mobile
borer miner in action
|
Sandvik Mining and Construction presented the world’s largest and most powerful mobile underground mining machine to potential customers.
During prototype tests, the machine cut a 10-meters-long tunnel through a specially constructed concrete block.
Following the cutting test, the machine was given a new challenge.
For the first time ever, cutting would be filmed from the perspective of the rock. To make this possible, a large ice block was built in the entrance of the test tunnel.
