The Challenge

The miner was experiencing high maintenance costs and downtime, spending six days per year changing out grizzly cassette decks. Their existing solution was only lasting 16 weeks. They were also hoping to eliminate safety JSA work and reduce maintenance requirements.

The Solution

The experienced field technicians representing CR Powered by Epiroc recommended replacing the existing solution with our Domite/Laminite grizzly cassettes.

The Results

Lasted 9 million tonnes

Reduced change outs to 2 days per year

The Impact

The Domite grizzly cassette decks lasted nine million tonnes, reducing plant downtime from wear plate change outs to two days per year. Three out of four JSA events were also eliminated.
