Switched reluctance hybrid drive captures and reuses braking energy
Simple control suite allows operator to concentrate on maximizing productivity
Automated control functions allow operator to perform complex operations at a button press
Heavy-duty design means less failures and more uptime
Bucket design allows easy filling and low wear
Central auto lubrication minimizes scheduled service activity and protects critical structural linkages and joints
Hydraulic system with piston pumps mean cooler operation and longer life


The diesel loader is a load haul dump featuring electric drives. It offers faster acceleration, lower fuel consumption, lower heat rejection and best-in-class breakout and rimpull - all of which contribute to the lowest total operating costs of any loaders in its class.

These key advantages are enabled by our patented Hybrid Drive system's unique ability to store energy and put it to use when most needed. This energy recovery delivers several benefits that contribute to a significant reduction in our customers' Total Cost of Ownership (TCO):
Productivity: improved work cycle performance
Higher acceleration and equipment cycle performance (double that of competitive LHDs)
Smoother operation (no gear changes)
Smart traction system
Reduced operating cost
High efficiency electric driveline
30% or more reductions in operating costs achieved compared to mechanical drive LHDs, including up to 20% reduction in fuel costs
