General information

The MVD Extra Low Profile Dozer is designed as a very low profile, remote-controlled machine for multiple uses such as underground mining and the construction industry. The first dozer was developed in 2003 when the South African mining sector expressed a need for a small machine which could assist with the cleaning of slopes after blasting. It is controlled by a single operator using a simple and convenient hand-held remote control unit.

The MVD is  is equipped  with  a  blade  for digging  and  pushing  the blasted  ore  in  front  of  the machine.  During operation, the MVD is capable of handling 50 to 120 tons of ore per hour.  The machine is designed to work continuously with minimal maintenance and downtime.  Maintenance and repairs can be carried out in the field or in certified service centers.

 The MVD was developed with the following system requirements:

  • Safety of personnel
  • High performance in the most difficult working conditions
  • Low maintenance requirements
  • Capable of operating on inclines up to 30 degrees
  • Environmental protection
  • Ability to work in high temperatures
