MINING & EARTHMOVING APPLICATIONS
Engineered hardfacing solutions for the most challenging wear environments.
The processes at most mines involve a wide spectrum of impact, abrasion, erosion, adhesion and corrosion that require engineered hardfacing solutions for effective wear protection. The equipment being affected ranges from large earth excavators to crushers to conveyors to pumps and valves. Mining operations extract mineral raw materials on a truly impressive scale in terms of quantities and material stresses. Moreover, they must handle the increasingly problematic overburden, which as waste material has no value but represents a major factor in the wear of plant components.
Plant maintenance personnel are constantly working to resolve issues with equipment that no longer works as efficiently as it should, or has broken down and must be replaced. With the increased economic pressures impacting the mining industry in recent years, mining operations must plan a more sustainable approach to more efficient operations with an eye towards reduced maintenance expenditures whenever possible. Hardcarb offers a suite of powerful engineered hardfacing solutions in all areas of mining and earthmoving activities. Following are a few examples where Hardcarb anti-wear solutions are regularly offered:
