The document discusses several types of machinery used in underground construction: a tunnel boring machine (TBM) that digs tunnels using a large rotating shield; a boom-type machine or header machine that excavates soft to medium rock; a shotcrete machine that sprays concrete through a hose; a scoop tram loading machine that scoops and transports extracted ore; a breaker attachment that breaks up hard materials; a trencher used to dig trenches for pipes or cables; an excavator used for digging foundations and trenches; a mining helmet lamp worn on the head for lighting underground; and a self-contained self-rescuer personal safety device carried by underground workers.

Is used to dig tunnels in anything from hard rock to
sand and anything in between, producing a smooth tunnel wall. The machine consists of several rotating cutting wheels on a large shield, which ranges in size from three to 60 feet (0.9 to 18 m). Also called Boom-type Machine or just Header Machine. Are widely used in the excavation of soft to medium rock in both underground mining and tunnelling. A viable alternative to full-face TBM to create openings in various configurations and sizes without disturbing the surrounding rock face. A machine used to spray concrete through a hose and pneumatically projected at high velocity onto a surface Also known as a scoop tram. Is a specialized loading machine manufactured for the underground mining industry. Are used to scoop extracted ore, such as coal, with a bucket, load it into the cart, and dump it in the bottom of the mine to undergo primary crushing before being hoisted to the surface out of the mine. Is an attachment designed to break up concrete, rock, and other hard materials. Is a construction equipment used to dig trenches, especially for laying pipes or cables or for installing drainage. An excavator is a construction vehicle used to excavate or move large objects. Used in Digging of trenches, holes, foundations. Is a lamp worn on the head or helmet. It is mostly used in an underground environment, like mines or during outdoor activities. Is a personal rescue device that is carried on miners or underground workers while in a mine or working underground.
