American Augers and Trencor have come together under parent company The Charles Machine Works, to develop a four-model line of surface mining machines. Using an American Augers mining head, with a Trencor trencher chassis, the machines offer a cost-effective means of removing material without drilling and blasting. The machines offer cutting widths of 3.2-4.5m with maximum cutting depths of 0.91-1.1m.
