Underground Mining Truck Sandvik TH315
The Sandvik TH315 is a narrow underground mining truck designed for small tunnels, ramp development and narrow-vein mining applications. With a 15-tonne payload capacity, a compact structure and a 7.5 m³ dump box, the truck provides efficient material haulage in restricted underground conditions and headings as small as 3 × 3 metres.
The machine combines a reliable Volvo diesel engine, strong power-to-weight ratio and maneuverable frame design for productive operation on inclines and in confined mine layouts. Its operator compartment with sideways seating, joystick steering and dump box control improves comfort, visibility and control during both forward and reverse driving.
