2025 Vermeer® Surface Miners T1255III - Chain Drive
T1255III Chain Drive highlights- Get in and extract material close to the high wall – this attachment gives you the capability to cut along a vertical high wall
- The chains are driven by low-speed, high-torque hydrostatic motors
- Conduct surface mining extraction, remove ground surface, or create a smooth, level area for site preparation
Features may include:
More production with high wall capability- Using a single-drive motor to power the drum allows for the ability to cut an 80° high wall compared to the 45° high wall when using the dual drive attachment.
- SmartTEC performance monitoring assists operators with adjustments to machine controls to help improve efficiency and tracks the operational performance of the machine on a consistent platform across all machine models.
- Load control allows the machine to automatically adjust ground speed to use full engine horsepower, thus maximizing productivity.
- The elevating cab allows optimal visibility and added comfort with the air ride seat. The sealed cab has self-contained heating and air conditioning with sound-attenuating foam. It is also a rollover module (ROM).
