The fully sealed body is optimized for dust and water resistance. It stops hydraulic oil contamination, pressure drop and external leakage, securing consistent power supply for long underground shifts. It delivers long service life and minimal breakdowns.

2. Travel Dual Hydraulic Motor Assembly

The machine adopts independent left & right track drive with low-speed high-torque piston motors integrated with reduction units. It combines driving, deceleration and braking into one compact module.
The motor generates massive starting torque for smooth, stall-free travel, suitable for muddy, stony and uneven mine floors, and can climb slopes up to 32°. A built-in wet multi-disc brake engages automatically during power or oil loss to lock tracks firmly and eliminate downhill sliding risks.
Thick alloy motor housing resists underground mud and dust corrosion with superior sealing. Operators gain responsive speed, steering and forward/reverse control for flexible movement in tight roadways. The unit bears heavy impact and frequent start-stop cycles with excellent fatigue resistance.

3. Conveyor Dedicated Hydraulic Motor

This dedicated motor solely powers the scraper conveyor with fixed-displacement high-pressure design for constant chain speed and stable torque.
It delivers uniform material transport to avoid jamming and conveyor deviation. Built-in overload protection releases pressure instantly when blockages occur, safeguarding scraper chains and conveyor frames from deformation or breakage.
Compact structure paired with full dustproof sealing withstands long-term friction and dust erosion underground. Consistent power output stabilizes feeding flow and drastically reduces conveyor system failures.

4. Reinforced Crawler Assembly

The mining-grade crawler set consists of high-manganese steel track shoes, wear-resistant track pins, load rollers, guide wheels, support rollers and automatic tensioners mounted on heavy-duty travel frames.
Thickened integral cast track shoes feature deep tread grooves for powerful grip, with ground contact pressure ≤0.1MPa to prevent sinking in soft muddy roadways. All wheels receive full heat treatment for flexible rotation and strong load capacity to absorb full-machine impact loads.
The mechanical auto-tensioner adjusts track tightness in real time to prevent derailment, loosening and extra wear. The whole assembly resists impact, tension and permanent deformation, adapting to bumpy mine tunnels and frequent uphill travel with far longer service life than standard civil crawlers.

5. Full Set Hydraulic Cylinders

Complete mining-spec cylinders equip the machine: boom cylinders, arm cylinders, bucket cylinders, swing cylinders and lifting cylinders.
Each barrel is made of seamless high-strength steel tube. Piston rods undergo high-frequency quenching and hard chrome plating for outstanding hardness, anti-rust and bending resistance. Imported multi-layer composite seals stand high pressure, low temperature, dust and muddy water intrusion, eliminating oil leakage and pressure loss.
Precise stroke control enables smooth cylinder extension without shaking or sticking. Integrated overload buffering absorbs impact loads during digging and dumping to protect cylinder and frame components. The cylinders suit heavy reciprocating work with long lifespan and simple maintenance.

6. Full Hydraulic Pipeline Assembly

The complete pipeline system uses mine-specified multi-layer steel wire braided hoses, categorized into high-pressure tubes, return lines and suction lines.
Optimized layout ensures even stress distribution to avoid bending, extrusion and abrasion damage. High-pressure hoses match the machine’s 32MPa peak pressure rating with anti-explosion, tensile and anti-aging properties, fit for high-frequency hydraulic cycles.
One-piece forged explosion-proof pipe joints with oil-resistant sealing gaskets guarantee leak-free tight connections. Custom pipe clamps and protective sleeves isolate hoses from friction with structural parts, adding dust, corrosion and aging resistance for humid, dusty underground environments. Stable oil flow maintains consistent hydraulic pressure and precise power transmission.

7. Explosion-Proof Main Motor

This mining flameproof three-phase asynchronous motor holds complete MA mining safety and explosion-proof certifications, fully compliant with underground coal mine operation standards.
Power options match all ZWY series models, delivering abundant torque, high efficiency and low noise with minimal power draw. Thick cast iron housing with optimized heat dissipation and large cooling fan prevents overheating during full-load continuous operation.
Internal windings use high-temperature flame-retardant insulated copper wire, with excellent waterproof, dustproof and moisture-proof performance against underground flammable gas and dust corrosion. The motor runs steadily with strong overload capacity and ultra-low failure rates to supply reliable long-term hydraulic power.

8. Custom Heavy-Duty Scraper Chain

This non-standard customized chain is engineered for hard mine waste, gangue and coal slag transport, distinct from ordinary standard chains.
Integral forged thickened link plates and heavy pins receive full carburizing quenching wear treatment, offering superior tensile, impact and friction resistance without easy deformation or fracture. High-manganese steel scrapers are welded firmly to carry large lumps without bending or falling off.
Smooth running with accurate meshing prevents skipping, derailment and jamming. The upgraded wear resistance greatly cuts replacement frequency and maintenance costs for continuous heavy-duty underground conveying.

9. Multi-Way Hydraulic Control Valve

This integrated mining multi-spool valve acts as the central hydraulic control unit, combining independent circuits for digging, travel, conveying and lifting.
Precision cast high-strength valve body houses finely machined spools with tight clearances for wear, pressure and deformation resistance. Sensitive proportional control delivers accurate start, stop, direction and speed regulation for all actuators with seamless, lag-free movement coordination.
Built-in overload relief, pressure compensation and shock suppression stabilize system pressure and protect hydraulic parts from high-pressure surges. Excellent anti-fouling and dust-proof design avoids spool sticking from minor oil impurities and underground dust. Compact layout, low failure rate and easy maintenance ensure synchronized, accurate operation of all machine functions.

10. Manual & Foot Pilot Valve Assembly

The machine adopts two-stage hydraulic pilot control combining hand joysticks and foot pedals to lighten operator fatigue with ultra-precise manipulation.
