A shovel in mining refers to a large excavating machine used to dig and load materials like ore, coal, or overburden. Modern mining shovels are typically electric-powered with massive buckets that can move hundreds of tons of material in a single scoop. They're essential for surface mining operations, with bucket capacities ranging from 20 to over 100 cubic meters.The two main types are:
1. Cable shovels: Use cables and pulleys to control the bucket movement
2. Hydraulic shovels: Use hydraulic systems for more precise control and flexibility
Unlike regular construction excavators, mining shovels are specifically designed for high-volume material handling in harsh mining environments.
