The third three-month customer trial of the Charmec MC 605 V SD, Normet’s BEV explosives charger, has come to an end at Goldfield’s Invincible Gold Mine in Australia. In the trial Byrnecut operated SmartDrive Charmec proving its technological advantages such as zero emissions, extremely little heat generation and silence at face work.
Productivity and efficiency benefits became tangible as the machine verified high incline speed driving up to the surface daily to fill explosives and when driving back down, machine regenerates electricity back to the battery. Time savings in driving create opportunity to increase productivity by simply being able to blast more rounds per year.
