Our 20 years of international trade expertise enable us to customize configurations and provide responsive after-sales support across South America, Africa, Australia, Southeast Asia, and Oceania.
Core Advantages of Our 3T Tunnel Loader
Our 3T Tunnel Loader stands out prominently in the global heavy equipment market through multiple engineering advantages. Firstly, it adopts an ultra-high-strength structural design utilizing thickened, wear-resistant steel plates on critical stress points, which substantially elevates load-bearing capacity and structural lifespan. A rated load capacity of 3,000kg paired with a large 1.9m³ bucket ensures high-efficiency material handling, while a powerful 92kW Luotuo 6108 diesel engine delivers robust tractive power with low fuel consumption, ensuring reliable performance during continuous, long-shift operations in aggressive underground environments.
Secondly, agile maneuverability represents a core operational highlight. Equipped with central articulated steering and a robust four-wheel-drive system, the minimum turning radius is tightly optimized (5,550mm outer passing radius), enabling the machine to move freely inside narrow tunnels and confined underground drifts. A maximum gradeability of 25% and 70kN of maximum breakout traction empower the machine to conquer challenging underground gradients and muck piles. Furthermore, the ergonomic cabin layout reduces operator fatigue, while responsive hydraulic controls complete full working cycles in under 12 seconds ($\le 12\text{s}$).
Thirdly, as a seasoned heavy equipment manufacturer, we place paramount focus on braking safety and maintenance convenience. The machine features wet disc service brakes and a central wet parking brake system, ensuring uncompromised braking security on damp, sloping underground floors. All components—including Shandong Yunyu heavy-duty drive axles—are precision-manufactured, rigorously tested, and designed for easy ground-level service access to minimize downtime and maintenance overhead.

Product Details & Structure Introduction
The meticulous design of our 3T Tunnel Loader reflects the professional engineering capability of our Shandong Taian factory. Every heavy equipment component is precision-machined to balance high breakout performance (120kN breakout force) with long-term structural durability. The reinforced box-section loader arms and 1.9m³ rock bucket effortlessly handle dense excavated materials, while the articulated steering layout shortens turning diameters to navigate restricted tunnel galleries safely.
The powertrain relies on a dependable 92kW Luotuo 6108 diesel powerplant that balances fuel efficiency with high torque output. Transmission and drive systems integrate mature Shandong Yunyu assemblies, ensuring seamless power transmission across four-wheel-drive configurations. Wet disc braking technologies provide superior thermal dissipation and extended wear life in humid or dusty underground environments. The ergonomic cabin features streamlined controls to minimize driver fatigue and optimize operational safety.
