By doing your thesis in collaboration with Epiroc you will get the chance to be a part of this journey.\nYou will work together with experienced and helpful colleagues in an atmosphere characterized by creativity, innovation, and workplace diversity. In your specific project you have the chance to be a part of a challenging and educational experience while growing both professionally and personally.\nFunctional area: Epiroc Rock Drills AB\nRecruiting manager: Charlotta Ivansson\nEmail: \nCity: Örebro\nEducation background:\nMechanical engineering.\nLevel of thesis project:\nMaster Thesis.\nNumber of students in the project: Two students\nTarget:\nIn this work, the aim is to deliver a concept of a new dumpbox model for one of Epiroc’s minetrucks. This using Creo, Ansys and other simulation tools.\nThe dumpbox shall be optimized to maximize its load capacity.\nBackground:\nOur customers want to haul as much ore as possible with each truck. At the same time, the dump box has to be easy to fill and empty and the load has to stay in the dump box throughout the trucks journey through the mine. In addition to this, the overall machine has to fit in a given space in the mine.\nMission:\nYour mission is to generate different dump box concepts and evaluate them against each other given the governing design parameters, such as physical size, strength, manufacturability etc. The end goal is for you to hand over the best way forward in how we at Epiroc design our dumpboxes for our future machines.\nQualification:\nKnowledge in mechanics and preferably simulation and solid mechanics is needed. It is also valuable to be thorough, a bit stubborn, open minded and appreciate co-operation. We offer this thesis to two students working together, in the Underground Rock Excavation Department in Örebro.\nHow to apply:\nDoes this sound interesting, and do you feel this is a match?\nSubmit your application by logging in to our career site. If you are new to the system, you need to start by creating a profile. Do not forget to attach your CV and a short letter about yourself, describing why you are applying for this thesis. Please note that we do not accept applications via email. One application is enough for both students applying. In this process, we review applications continuously and the project can be filled before last day of application. We recommend sending your application as soon possible, but no later than November 13.\n\nIt all starts with people. The world needs metals and minerals for the energy transition and our cities and infrastructure must be developed to serve a growing population. To succeed, we need to speed up the shift towards more sustainable mining and construction industries. We at Epiroc accelerate this transformation, together with customers and business partners in more than 150 countries, by developing and providing innovative and safe equipment, digital solutions, and aftermarket support.\nAll new thinkers are welcome. We are looking for those who want to develop, grow, and dare to think new. In Epiroc we attract, develop, and retain diverse talent valuing authenticity and unique perspectives, driving our spirit of innovation. We foster an inclusive culture where diversity isn't just a goal but a part of our values and way of working. This is how we do business for a sustainable future.
