Abstract

The recommendations are given for conical pick patterns to prevent growing forces on neighbor picks of a failed pick. It is proposed to detect promptly pick failures by analyzing the burden variation in the transmission system of the cutting head. According to the theoretical calculations, when a pick fails, the relative growth of the feed force is not higher than the relative growth of the cutting force as against the increase in the burden as a consequence of change in the cut rock strength. This hypothesis was tested and proved during shafting at Talitsky site of the Upper Kama Potash-Magnesium Ore Deposit using shaft cutting machine 1SPKV-8.0.
