Roof bolts in coal mines.
Roof bolts in helping to create a stable rock structure are the first line of defence to protect mineworkers from fall of ground related hazards which highlights the importance of correct roof.
Roof bolting is hard work where miners often have to lift cumbersome pieces of heavy metal into awkward positions.
The coal mine roof rating cmrr somewhat quantifies this effect through the strong bed adjustment 9.
From an engineering standpoint roof bolts are inherently more effective than the wood timbers they replaced.
However ground falls still remain a significant factor in underground coal mine injuries and fatalities.
Mining roof bolters operate machinery to install roof support bolts in underground mine.
Wide boom swing allows multiple bolt installations from one chassis position.
Position bolting machines and insert drill bits into chucks.
The traditional dead weight loading design.
In low seam mines the flexibility of the cable bolts allows greater length supports to be installed near the advancing face without the use of couplers.
High roof conditions can present a problem for people who usually work with low profile machines and vice versa.
Short operating length allows bolting the first row of an intersection from one set up.
We can supply the construction mining or tunneling industry with much more.
Jennmar is the largest manufacturer of roof control products in the u s however we don t stop there.
Independent front and rear lift for easy tramming on uneven bottom.
Take a look at our capabilities and affiliates to learn more.
Pull down loose rock that cannot be supported.
When conditions change and the miners are out of their element safety can become a concern.
They also drill bolt holes into roofs at specified distances from ribs or adjacent bolts.
Perhaps the most significant development in coal mine ground control during the last century was the introduction of roof bolting during the late 1940 s and 1950 s.
Experience has shown that roof bolts are extremely efficient in the suspension mode 6 7 8 though suspension becomes more difficult if the weak layer is more than 3 ft thick.
Cable bolting is sometimes used as primary support in coal mines experiencing difficult roof conditions.
