The mining industry is experiencing rapid changes in how ore deposits are extracted.

There are three facets of mining that are dramatically affected by available ventilation:
  • Overall mine efficiency due to ventilation costs
  • Overall mine safety due to diesel exhaust
  • Limitations on mine depth due to the difficulty in getting ventilation to where it needs to be.

Fully electric mining machines are the obvious answer to minimizing ventilation needs and Parker has introduced cutting edge motor and inverter technology to help address those needs.
Parker GVM Motors and GVI Inverters provide innovative solutions to mining electrification in two distinct ways:

GVM Motors and GVI Inverters for accessory drives.

The GVM motor and GVI inverter product line is scalable to address electro-hydraulic pump drive requirements from small to large and voltages from 24 VDC to 800 VDC. Motors can be ordered with SAE pump mounts so that GVM motors and Parker hydraulic pumps can be directly connected, saving precious space and payload weight.

GVM Motors and GVI Inverters for traction drives.

The Parker GVM motor line continues to expand with the introduction of the new GVM310. This motor is bigger and more powerful than our existing GVM210 and GVM142 motors. The GVM310 is ideally suited for traction drive applications on heavy electric mining machines and is scalable for specific torque requirements.
