    The designing process and stand tests of a new solution of a mining head with disc tools of complex motion trajectory for compact rocks mining
    (2010) Kotwica, Krzysztof; Stopka, Grzegorz; Kalukiewicz, Antoni; Gospodarczyk, Piotr
    The article presents a new solution of a mining head with asymmetrical disc tools of a complex motion trajectory for hard rocks mining. The developed and manufactured head is to be an alternative for traditional milling heads used in roadheaders. The basis for the head development was elaborated based on laboratory tests performed in the AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow. The technical design and the head were implemented in cooperation with the factory of REMAG S.A. in Katowice. The head, mounted on the KR 150 roadheader, underwent field tests. Their results allowed modernisation of the head and its adaptation to further industrial tests in mining plants.
