CIFA introducing novel underground mixer

CIFA has developed the innovative Energya E9 truck mixer, which suits duties in tunnelling applications. This machine is claimed to be environmentally friendly as its drum is driven by an electric motor that is powered by an on-board lithium battery. The machine features a low profile design while the use of battery power for the mixer unit means it produces no emissions when in underground working configuration.

Energya E9 truck mixer
2203 CIFA has developed the innovative Energya E9 truck mixer, which suits duties in tunnelling applications. This machine is claimed to be environmentally friendly as its drum is driven by an electric motor that is powered by an on-board lithium battery. The machine features a low profile design while the use of battery power for the mixer unit means it produces no emissions when in underground working configuration.

This suits the machine for use in tunnelling projects, as it has a minimal requirement for ventilation. The machine can be used to supply concrete for structural applications required in tunnelling work.

    Cummins is developing an all-electric powertrain for use in off-highway applications. This move follows the firm’s acquisition of the electric drive specialist Brammo. The system is designed to suit applications such as urban or underground duties, where it is necessary to minimise engine emissions. The package combines battery power with a compact diesel engine, linked directly to a generator. This offers a range-extended vehicle driveline (REEV). The prototype being unveiled utilises a 4litre F3.8 diesel
