What is DOK-ING XLP?

The DOK-ING’s unique remote-controlled Extra Low Profile Dozer (XLPD) has been designed for maximum performance and versatility to suit a wide range of tasks having numerous attachments such as; Bucket, Ejector Bucket, Dozer Blade, Brush and Gripper Tools.

Independent of its size, DOK-ING mining equipment is known for its exceptional performance, excellent reliability, simple operation, operator comfort and easy serviceability.

The DOKING mining product line includes two different platform models, powered by diesel engines or electric motors, with five different tool attachments. The purpose of XLP equipment is the creation of safe mining conditions. XLP platform is used for the safe cleaning of production panels. XLP platform pushes the ore into the advance strike gulley where the ore is collected and transported to the conveyor system. XLP platform is also used for sweeping and vamping activities resulting in manual stope-cleaning labor being largely eliminated. XLP platform is controlled by a single operator using a simple handheld radio remote control unit.

The XLP platform design can withstand the most severe underground working conditions. It has the ability to work in high temperatures and conforms to the required safety systems to protect the operator and personnel in the vicinity of the operation. The XLP platform has the ability to work in gradients of up to 30 degrees and at mine heights from 1.2 m to 1.6 m which makes it suitable for mining a large proportion of reef types in various mining industries (platinum, gold, diamonds etc.). Miners work far below the earth’s surface and have little time and less space to deal with unscheduled
breakdowns. With reliable and robust machines such as XLP productivity is paramount, especially when downtime costs are decreased by using mechanical equipment to clear out ore and increase safety.
