Abstract

Mining industry in India occupies a popular position in the world league table. Mechanization on a large scale has made major breakthrough in this industry. In open pit mines, dump trucks are used for transporting ore. Failures of dumper subsystems affect production in mines. The most critical subsystem of a dumper is its prime mover, the diesel engine. It provides mobile propulsion to the dumper. Failure of engine will lead to stoppage of dumpers. To reduce the downtime of the engine, failure analysis of its subsystem is important. For this purpose the engine is divided into its different subsystems. Failure analysis is carried out for each subsystem using statistical tools empirical Failure Mode Effective Analysis (FMEA) and Risk Priority Number (RPN). The goal is to find out the most critical subsystem.
