Scamec LC Thor
Overview
The Scamec LC Thor marks the start of a new era of underground scaling operations
It is designed in close collaboration with our customers, combining Normet’s decades-long experience in developing cutting-edge underground equipment with scaling operators’ invaluable experience in everyday scaling work. As a result of that collaboration, this purpose-built machine brings boom accuracy and handling, work area visibility and operator ergonomics – and, consequently, safety and productivity of the whole scaling process – to a higher level than ever before.
The Scamec LC Thor has an extremely safe FOPS/ROPS approved cabin with excellent visibility and unforeseen operator ergonomics. It is equipped with a completely new, agile and accurate boom for precise and efficient scaling. It has an effective vertical reach of up to 9.5 meters and fits tunnels measuring 4 meters wide and 2.7 meters high.
