The shape and geometry of bucket edge, edge and tooth material have a key influence on wheel excavator mining processes efficien cy and power consumption. The frequent change of cutting members due to their wear or break in increases mining process costs, shortens excavator operation time which mean s lower efficiency of the technological complex (TC). Every wear means a change of shape, geometry, eventually material properties of cutting members, but the incr eased power consumption of the mining process as well....

Self-ignition processes are a serious probl em in brown coal mining and depositing. Infusions and following fires are frequent events in open pit brown coal mines with seams influenced with previous underg round mining, homogenisation and other deposits, and on stock-piles of power and heat stations and industrial plants combusting coals as well. The objectives of the project from the ALFA programme No. TA01020351 are presented in this article. The project solves a research, development, and verification of a comp...
