Corum Group to produce 6 new RH110 roadheaders

Corum Group, a machine-building company that is part of DTEK Energy, intends to produce six new generation RH110 roadheaders in 2025, the company announced on Facebook.

According to the report, a new RH110 was recently presented to miners, which became the eighth one manufactured this year.

As reported, DTEK’s machine builders started producing a new line of RH110 roadheaders in 2023. It differs from its predecessors with an improved and enlarged design of the executive body.

Its weight of almost 55 tons is 20% more than previous models, and the electro-hydraulic part is made using components from leading European manufacturers.

The RH110, in particular, has an enlarged loading arm window to accommodate larger pieces of rock and a protective fence for electric motors to prevent mechanical damage. The shearer is more efficient and safer to operate.

Corum Group is a leading manufacturer of mining equipment in Ukraine and is part of DTEK Energy, the operating company responsible for coal mining and coal-fired power generation within Rinat Akhmetov’s DTEK holding.

In January-October this year, DTEK Energy’s machine-building enterprises produced and repaired 1,039 units of mining equipment, including 11 new tunnelling and shearers.
