FACE CONVEYOR - PF6
Moving Mountains - No matter how fast your shearer can cut, you can’t keep cutting until you move the coal away from the face. Cat® Armored Face Conveyors (AFCs) are designed to keep things moving and to carry the maximum possible amount of coal smoothly away from the coalface. They are designed for high availability and economy in operation. They are easy to maintain and offer long service life and a great return on investment to mine operators.

LEARN MOREMOTEUR
There are many parts to an Armored Face Conveyor: shearer haulage system, drives, drive frames and sprockets, gearboxes, line pans, chain conveyors as well as entry conveyors and belt tailpieces. Each of these components has to be engineered to perfection, but also has to work together optimally with the other parts of the system.
BENEFITS AND FEATURES
Cat AFC components achieve this. Each is designed for powerful, reliable and economical operation with low maintenance over a long service life, promoting high productivity and delivering a great return on investment.
Cat rackbar shearer haulage systems meet the demands of today’s high-performance shearers. We use design and material selection aimed at achieving maximum system availability, longest possible shearer, sprocket and trapping shoe life and on-system suitability for seam undulations.
BENEFITS AND FEATURES
As with all Cat products, these systems are the result of extensive R
