The Challenge

The miner was experiencing high maintenance costs and downtime, spending 12 days per year changing out wear plates. Their existing solution was only lasting eight weeks. They were also hoping to eliminate confined space work and reduce maintenance on the discharge chute.

The Solution

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

The Results

Lasted 12 million tonnes

Reduced change outs to 2 days per year

The Impact

The Domite/Laminite wear liners lasted 12 million tonnes/10 months, reducing plant downtime from wear plate change outs to two days per year.

The change also eliminated five out of six confined space events per chute.
