Increased demand for mined minerals & resources in the last decade has increased the demands on mining equipment to extract an ever-increasing volume of ore. While the operating conditions of mines have largely remained the same, the equipment being used is bigger, more efficient & capital intensive. This has led to an even greater need for failure-free performance from tyres.…
Skid steers loaders are well accepted for their ability to execute a wide variety of jobs and their maneuverability & compact dimensions. While these work well on hard, paved surfaces, if service conditions are marshy, muddy or sandy, all tyred equipment including skid steer loaders lose traction or start spinning and ultimately get bogged down. At times a crane may…
Dump trucks/tippers used in mining and other severe duty applications are subjected to very harsh working conditions. Mining is an interconnected cycle of different operational processes, the impact of tyre-related downtime leaving any equipment in the chain idle is reduced operational efficiency, higher costs & revenue loss. Normally, these machines are fitted with pneumatic tyres that are prone to punctures…
Aerial work platforms are used to provide temporary access for people or equipment to inaccessible areas, usually at heights and are frequently deployed in the construction industry and for a variety of maintenance applications. Tires being the only connection between the vehicle and the terrain, it is critical to ensure that they are reliable, safe and performance-worthy anytime & every…
