Battery-Powered Technology of the Future
Battery-Powered Technology of the Future
Welcome to a Medical Battery specialist of the GE Battery
Since 1889, General Electric (GE) has provided millions of homes, offices, factories and retail facilities with electricity. But the company is much more than just an electric company.
GE, which operates through a variety of segments such as Energy, Technology Infrastructure, and Capital Finance, has been leading the mining industry into a safer, cleaner and quieter future. Through the company’s Transportation division, GE Mining is working to maximize resources and drive efficiencies through cutting-edge technology to make mining work better.
For more than a half a century, General Electric has been working to solve the world’s toughest mining challenges with battery like GE Eagle Monitor 1000 Battery, GE Eagle Monitor 1006 Battery, GE Responder 1000 Battery, GE Responder 1100 Battery, GE 15N-800AA Battery, Kenz HHR-38AF25G1 Battery, Kenz Cardico 1211 Battery, Osen ECG-8130A Battery, Edanins ECG-6A Battery, GE DASH 1000 Battery, GE Eagle 1000 Battery, Kenz Cardico 1210 Battery. Since its inception, GE Mining has been dedicated to transforming the archaic mining industry by developing newer and improved technologies.
In 2012, the company acquired Fairchild International, a leading manufacturer of underground mining vehicles in Virginia. The acquisition was part of a development programs to expand GE Mining’s product offering to address roughly 35 percent of the underground mining value chain.
“We highly value the industry knowledge and expertise in designing, building and servicing underground mining equipment that Fairchild brings to GE Mining,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, President and CEO of GE Oil & Gas. “With GE’s global reach, technology leadership in clean propulsion and energy storage systems, and world-class system integration capabilities, we will bring the next generation of top performing underground mining equipment to customers worldwide.”
Since the acquisition, GE’s Fairchild Mining Equipment division has developed and begun offering complete lines of battery-powered scoops, diesel-powered scoops and tractors, multipurpose vehicles, longwall shield haulers, maintenance vehicles and continuous miners and haulage systems.
General Electric’s Mining segment is working to create a safer mining future. GE’s mining division specializes in three segments of the mining industry: propulsion systems, mining equipment and mining solutions.
The company has recently begun testing its new battery-powered mining equipment, including its newly designed Load Dump (LHD) at mining company IAMGOLD’s Westwood underground mine in Canada. The new Load Dump vehicle has the potential to not only operate entirely on battery and propulsion technology, but doing so while emitting 100 percent zero emissions.
“We’re getting rid of the diesel emissions, we’re getting rid of the noise, the heat, and the battery changing is really quick,” says GE Mining Engineer Remi Desrosiers.
Engineered to deliver superior performance in the most challenging hard-and soft-rock environments, the LHD vehicle provides lower cost of ownership including maintenance and fuel consumption while minimizing its carbon footprint.
