Electrification
Go Electric. Go Sandvik.
Sandvik is the leading partner in mine electrification and has driven innovation in electric equipment for more than 40 years.
Benefits of going electric
Better health and safety conditions for workers
Zero diesel emissions, significant reductions in heat and lower noise and vibration levels all contribute towards an environment that is healthier and safer for your operators.
Better productivity - lower costs
Less heat output results in lower costs for ventilation and cooling, which, when combined with higher acceleration, operating speed and loading times, provides a strong business case.
The fast track to a more sustainable mine
Zero CO2 emissions, less waste due to smaller machines and regenerative braking as standard reduce GHG emissions and help you meet your sustainability targets.
