PRESS RELEASE: The Minetruck MT2200 shares the same dimensions of its popular Minetruck MT2010 predecessor, but the newest Minetruck can capably transport even heavier loads of up to 22t.

Erik Gert, global product manager at Epiroc, said: "The Minetruck MT2200 is based on our very successful Minetruck MT2010, so safety and reliability are built in from the beginning."

Besides safety essentials and a compact design that is ideal for manoeuvring through tight spaces, the new Minetruck MT2200 incorporates other excellent characteristics from its forerunner, including easy access to service points and ergonomic seating and controls for optimal operator comfort. The sturdy Minetruck MT2200 can also reach fast incline speeds to ramp up an operation's productivity.

Epiroc offers a full portfolio of mining equipment including both diesel-driven and battery-powered drill rigs, loaders, ground support machinery and underground vehicles. Gert related: "We work closely with our customers. We talk to miners on site to ascertain what they really need and want in a truck. That's why you can trust Epiroc for a mine truck you can depend on. Our hands-on experience makes all the difference."
