Mining
Supporting your mining operation with advanced crane technology and global maintenance services.
Konecranes offers deep expertise in overhead material handling for mining applications—from extraction to production and refining. No other crane company serving the mining industry can match our product range, engineering expertise or application know-how.
We go the distance:
Since most mine locations are several hours away from a major city or town, securing prompt and qualified crane service can be problematic. You can count on Konecranes to go the distance, providing expert crane service to remote locations through a variety of strategies. We can:
- Supplement your in-house maintenance crew with manpower and/or expertise.
- Work alongside your in-house crane maintenance teams
- Take on complete maintenance programs, if outsourcing is an option for you.
Onsite contracts with Konecranes:
Konecranes has the resources to locate a technician or an entire team at your site with a trailer/office and living quarters to ensure that expert repairs and preventive maintenance are only minutes away. In addition to manpower and expertise, a Konecranes site contract relieves you of many employment responsibilities—recruitment, selection, retention, benefits or cyclical trends in commodity prices that may impact workforce needs.
Extend the life of your mining equipment:
Nothing lasts forever. This is especially true in and around mines, where harsh operating conditions combined with extraordinary duty requirements take their toll on even the most well-designed equipment. Mine environments are often corrosive and dusty for cranes working over tank houses and crushers. Maintenance cranes in truck shops can face overload and operator error.
