Stanley R. Michalski, in Coal and Peat Fires: A Global Perspective, 2011 Longwall Coal Mining. The longwall-mining method is a continuous mining system that was developed for mining coal deposits uniform in thickness and slope or where the overburden pressures may crush support pillars or for improving productivity. This method relies on the complete extraction of the coal in a designated area

Continuous miners. Though there are many variations in design, continuous miners mostly consist of five main elements: A central body to carry all other components mounted on some type of drive mechanism to provide mobility (most commonly caterpillar tracks). A "cutting head" usually rotating drum(s) and/or chains with cutting picks attached
Longwall Mining Overview Introduction underground
LONGWALL MINING Overview. In the method of secondary extraction known as longwall mining a relatively long mining face (typically in the range 100 to 300m but may be longer) is created by driving a roadway at right angles between two roadways that form the sides of the longwall block, with one rib of this new roadway forming the longwall face.

Joy 12HM36 Continuous Miner Industrial Mineral Mining
The 12HM36 continuous miner, with a dual gathering head system, is ideal for industrial mineral mining applications, including trona, gypsum, potash, and salt. The 12HM36, with a 1473 mm (58 in.) cutter head diameter, is one of the largest and most powerful drum
Tests on the cutting performance of a continuous miner
2021-1-31 This paper describes tests on the performance of a continuous miner in cutting South African coal. Although coal cutting has been investigated extensively overseas, the results have not led to significant changes in machine design because these machines find little difficulty in cutting the softer overseas coals at a fast rate.
Joy 12HM37 Continuous Miner Underground Mining
Cutting system. As the 12HM continuous miners are the largest manufactured by Joy, the cutting systems have been designed to match the machine mass. This series of miners is available with a chainless cutter head with drum diameters from 1118mm to 1320mm. Depending on the cutter head design, the cutting horsepower can be as much as 520kW.
