Unlocking Efficiency: Truck Trolley Systems
For decades, truck trolley systems have provided efficient and sustainable transport solutions across a wide range of terrains. However, their importance has grown significantly in recent years as mine operators are facing the challenge of decarbonising their mining environment. At Siemens, we are committed to support our partners in reaching their environmental targets.

Navigating the Transition: Electrifying Mining

Boosted Speed
Trolley systems enhance truck speeds by up to 80 %.

Boosted Production
Faster trucks mean better fleet utilization and therefore faster and more efficient production.

Cost-Savings
By implementing trolley systems, fuel and maintenance costs can be significantly reduced, resulting in up to 80 % reduction in overall operating expenses.

Eco-Friendly
The system allows up to 90 % savings of CO2 compared to traditional diesel-powered trucks, contributing to a greener and more sustainable mining environment.

Flexibility
Standardized modularity streamlines system relocation, allowing trolley systems to seamlessly adapt to new locations when mining operations shift.

Minimal Additional Space
Only an additional 50 to 80 cm of space is needed for the overhead contact system.

Faster Relocation
Leveraging insights from over 10 previous relocations, we have optimized the design and workflows for our new-generation trolley lines, resulting in 50 % reduction in relocation times.

Tailored Solutions
Siemens evaluates site-specific data, offering cost-benefit analyses for trolley scenarios.
In addition to the great benefits of our truck trolley system, partnering with Siemens ensures expert guidance throughout the project. Our extensive experience spans over 40 years with the trolley system, including our longest uninterrupted operation since 1986, which has seen over 10 successful relocations.
