Battery Drive – MineTrans Transport Machines

Battery Drive in MineTrans Systems

Battery drives used in Becker-Warkop monorails are modern, zero-emission energy sources that define a new direction for underground transport. Thanks to their explosion-proof design, quiet operation, and full integration with digital systems, they ensure safe and environmentally friendly working conditions underground.

This is an ideal solution for mining operations that focus on efficiency, reliability, and sustainable development.

Key Features of MineTrans Battery Drives

  • Zero emissions and quiet operation – no exhaust gases and reduced noise improve the comfort of operators and underground crews.
  • Industry 4.0 technology – integrated BMS, PLC systems and IoT communication enable remote supervision, diagnostics, and predictive maintenance.
  • Flexible configuration – versions with an operator cabin or remote control, with the possibility to combine battery modules and adapt the system to transport requirements.
  • Explosion-proof design (Ex) – designed for operation in methane and coal dust hazard environments.
  • High efficiency and energy recovery – electric friction drives with BWDU units allow energy recuperation during operation.
