The DD2710 operates on pneumatic rubber tyres—a design choice that enables faster tramming speeds than crawler tracks and the compact turning radius needed in KGHM's 5×4 meter copper mine headings. But pneumatic tyres in Polish undergroun...

The DD2710 is a wheeled jumbo—it trams on rubber tires rather than crawling on tracks—and in Polish underground copper mining at KGHM's Lubin and Sieroszowice operations, tramming performance is a critical operational metric. KGHM's flat-...

A DD2710 development jumbo has more than a dozen hydraulic cylinders across the boom, feed, carrier, and canopy systems—each with its own seal kit containing the specific piston seal, rod seal, wiper, and O-ring profile for that cylinder's bore...

The DD2710 carries multiple hydraulic accumulators that serve different functions across the machine. The percussion circuit accumulators buffer the percussion pump's flow demand peaks. The boom function accumulators provide pressure support during r...

The DD2710's hydraulic tank is a component that rarely gets attention until something goes wrong—and when it goes wrong in Finnish underground operations, the consequences are disproportionate to the attention it doesn't receive. At Agnico Eagl...
