The P&H 2650CX is a hybrid shovel designed to deliver up to a 15% reduction in cost per ton when compared to large diesel hydraulic excavators through a combination of reduced fuel consumption, improved availability and decreased maintenance and repair costs. Engineered to blend the high productivity of electric mining shovels with the mobility and flexibility of diesel hydraulic excavators, the machine features an articulating hydraulic clamshell attachment designed to deliver a 65-ton payload. The machine will four-pass load 240-ton trucks but be capable of loading 400 ton trucks. Additionally, by maximizing the use of electric motions the 2650CX will significantly reduce the number of onboard hydraulics as compared to traditional large diesel hydraulic excavators, in some cases up to 50%.
