MTU diesel engines are the standard in many mining applications around the globe. They reliably power vehicles for underground and opencast mining, including loading vehicles such as excavators and wheel loaders; transport vehicles such as haul trucks or blast hole drilling rigs; and other mining machines – diesel-mechanic, diesel-electric or diesel-hydraulic.
