Sandvik introduces its Toro® TH663i I Gen2 underground truck, the latest evolution of its proven 63 tonne haulage platform.

Developed through continuous improvement, operational experience, and customer insight, the updated truck incorporates more than 30 enhancements designed to improve reliability, productivity, operator safety, and total cost of ownership in underground mining operations.

Performance data from underground operations shows measurable improvements compared with earlier Toro® TH663i models. Reference data indicates 25% shorter mean time to repair (MTTR) and 12% longer mean time between failures (MTBF), resulting in more than 170 additional operating hours per truck annually.

“Customers are looking for predictable performance they can rely on every shift,” said Esa-Pekka Kantola, Product Line Manager, Load and Haul at Sandvik Mining.

“With Toro® TH663i I Gen2, we have used years of underground operating experience to refine a proven platform and help customers improve productivity, increase availability, and control their cost per tonne.”

Rather than a complete redesign, Toro® TH663i I Gen2 builds on years of operating experience with the Toro® TH663i platform in underground mines around the world, incorporating accumulates improvements into the latest generation of the truck. The more than 30 updates span multiple areas of the machine, including engine, electrical, powertrain, software, and structural systems.

Together, the updates are designed to increase availability, enhance durability, improve serviceability, and support lower cost per tonne and total cost of ownership throughout the equipment lifecycle. Toro® TH663i I Gen2 can be combined with Sandvik digital and automation technologies, including My Sandvik Digital Services and AutoMine® solutions, and is supported by Sandvik's global parts, service and training network.
