Fairchild Model 30-26 Hi-Cap XL Radio Remote Controlled Detached Continuous Haulage System


Recommended seam height: 30" - 55"

New Fairchild Model 30-26, Hi-Cap XL, Detached Continuous Haulage System with 30-inch conveyors. Equipped with 480/950 Volt AC.

Features Advantages Benefits
Dual articulating 4 x 4 crawlers frames that rotate 180 degrees.  The most flexible system on the market. Maximum maneuverability to negotiate turns reducing place changing time. Reduces place changing  time resulting in high availability and increased production.
Maximum maneuverability moving to or away from the rib. Reduces unnecessary down time due to bridges hung up against rib.
Can tram laterally to push or pull Rapid-Haul rigid rail structure into correct alignment. To reduce unnecessary downtime allowing higher production.
Provides a much lower vertical ground pressure (14.6 psi) with two (2) bridges attached.  Can operate in 90 degree crosscuts with 20" entry widths. Allows greater maneuverability and higher production in soft floor conditions.  Adaptable to various mining conditions.
Provides a much lower horizontal ground pressure because crawlers turn reducing stress on the mine bottom. Same as above, especially in the belt entry
Design allows each MBC to have 11 ft. more effective reach per operator. Which can allow for fewer MBC's or operator resulting in lower cost and higher profit.
Proven Crawler Units. Proven strength. Less downtime and high production.
Lower ground pressure. Greater maneuverability and less downtime in soft floor conditions.
30 inch conveyor. For tonnage capacities from 12.8 to 17.3 tpm. Higher production and profitability.
Designed to convey larger material. Less downtime and higher production.
Heavy Duty uni-body main frame. Long life strength in toughest of conditions and demand. Less maintenance cost and greater return on investment.
Narrow frame width of 6 ft., 6 in.

Narrowest on the market.

 Optimum clearance in belt entry.

Greater clearance in other areas.

 Less downtime and greater availability.
Low 26" stacked height. Lowest 30" system on the market. Compatible in low seams under 55 inches. Maximum system flexibility and higher return on investment.
Allows the system to operate productively in low seams with undulating floors. Same as above.
Reduces down time. Higher production and lower cost per ton.
Vertical pivoting on receiving section of MBC's Can prevent roofing out in lower seams. Less downtime.
Allows for better leveling of receiving section. Less spillage and downtime.
3/8-inch wear resistant top and bottom decking. Longer life between redecking/rebuilds. Lower cost per ton.
Modular design. Ease of component change out. Less downtime and more production.
Center operated side saddle operator's cab or Radio Remote Control. Optimum cab design increases operator safety, visibility and comfort. Maximum operator safety and ease of operation.
Dual pilot operated joy stick independent tram controls. Increases ease of operation. Better system performance.
High strength two (2) piece bridge section. Heavy duty design for longer life. Lower cost per ton.
. Maximum flexibility and return on investment.
1-3/4" heavy duty conveyor chain. Less downtime.
  Less downtime and fewer parts.
