Ten BELAZ quarry dump trucks with a lifting capacity of 220 tons and one large water sprinkler with a tank capacity of 119 m3 have been added to the open pits of the Russian coal company «Kuzbassrazrezugol».

220-ton BELAZ trucks are the most popular dump trucks at the mining and processing plants of our strategic partner in the Kemerovo Region. These reliable and high-performance machines are equipped with all the necessary modern systems to make the dump truck operator's work efficient, comfortable and safe.

- BELAZ-75306 quarry dump trucks provide maximum productivity in conjunction with high-power excavators. The equipment has been proven by many years of successful operation in difficult mining, geological and weather conditions at the company's open pits, - noted Roman Smirnov, Director of Production at UK «Kuzbassrazrezugol».

An irreplaceable assistant for coal miners is the BELAZ-7613D water sprinkler machine - this is a new model of the largest sprinkler in the line of special-purpose equipment of our company, which performs important work on dust suppression in open pits. The powerful dust fighter has a tank comparable in volume of water with a small lake, and also has an impressive irrigation zone of up to 60 meters. In addition, due to the long-range of its monitor nozzle, the BELAZ-7613D is able to cover even the most inaccessible places of coal faces with a powerful water jet.

Over the past three years, «Kuzbassrazrezugol», one of the leaders in terms of coal production in Russia, has updated the transport divisions of its enterprises by more than half with modern Belarusian equipment. Only in 2023, BELAZ delivered 89 quarry dump trucks of various load-carrying capacity classes to the company's open-pit mines, the majority of which are 130- and 220-ton heavy-duty trucks.
