Mine equipment engineering and planning
Special mining circumstances may require special mining equipment. Bucket wheel excavators and spreaders may have to be engineered specifically for your mining operation. RWE can develop the specifications and the mechanical and electrical design for your mining equipment, taking into account available materials and manufacturing skills.
Our mechanical and electrical engineers can provide an independent check and verification of an equipment manufacturer’s design and choice of materials.
Many conveyor systems pose engineering challenges including abrasive material, downhill conveying, overland conveying, high belt speeds and wide belts. RWE will develop the transportation concepts for you and implement the solutions.
Bulk materials handling equipmentand major mine equipment requires significant investment. To ensure the best value for money, we can assist you throughout the procurement process.
Our involvement can include tender documentation, evaluating bids, recommending the most suitable bidder and assisting you during the contract negotiations. We keep the procurement process transparent and ensure you get functioning equipment for the best price, without failures or delays.
You can benefit from our mine equipment engineering services through:
- design of the whole conveyor chain (from mine to stockpile)
- independent checking and verification of an equipment manufacturer’s design
- preparation and publishing of Tender documents
- evaluation of bids and recommendation of the most suitable bidder
- assistance during contract negotiations
- mine equipment erection supervision
