Prinoth will present the new member of its pride at MINEXpo in Las Vegas: the Panther T8 carrier. The Panther accesses difficult work sites without damaging the terrain in the process. Its unique undercarriage provides superior stability and flotability over soft ground other vehicles fear to tread on. Sand, snow, swamps, mud… The Panther’s low ground pressure and high sprocket torque get you where you want to go with a minimum impact on the environment. When the road is not a road, you want the Panther’s low ground pressure abilities.
Prinoth says “you can save on your helicopter costs, you can drill on all types of ground. The new spacious two-person cab comfortably transports your driller and the helper.”
Panther vehicles are manufactured and assembled by hand, right down to the last bolt. Each vehicle is subject to rigorous safety and performance testing in our world-class facility to ensure worry-free operation for you out in the field. The Panther employs clever safety features, such as an automatic hill braking system and an outrigger interlock safety system. Its superior cab design is available with a certified ROPS (roll-over protective structure) complying with the ISO 3471 standard and a certified FOPS (falling-object protective structure) complying with the ISO 3449 standard.
The Panther may tread soft, but it carries a big payload. In fact, it carries the highest payload in its class. The Panther T8 carries 7,260 kg of equipment, materials and supplies out to work sites. It is a powerful combination that gives the ability to take whatever is needed to wherever it needs to go. 4. Large Deck Space
Preparing for a big job is difficult enough. The Panther eliminates one problem – custom fitting your implements. Thanks to its new patent-pending chassis inspired from the trucking industry, you can now install all of your standard implements with little to no modification. The widened 860 mm chassis saves precious time and money, while making the installation procedure much simpler. Custom fitting your implements is a thing of the past, thanks to the Panther’s standardised implement installation.
The Panther is a true all-weather vehicle that is as comfortable in the frozen arctic tundra as it is in a Mississippi mud bog. Unique undercarriage design featuring large wheels, along with an outstanding suspension stroke and accompanied by a high sprocket torque provide unsurpassed performance. In exceptionally hot or cold temperatures, the Panther keeps moving where lesser tracked vehicles fail.
The Panther uses proven microcontroller technology to monitor everything from oil pressure and vehicle parameters to outside air temperature, and displays them on a colour screen. It is all about providing increased reliability and enhanced safety for a minimum amount of downtime. 9. EPA – Certified
All Panther utility vehicles meet or exceed tough EPA and Euromot standards. Engines are installed, tested and certified in conjunction with the entire vehicle. Gathering information from engine systems, terrain condition and operator input, The Panther’s microcontroller brain assures all aspects of the vehicle are operating safely and at maximum efficiency.
