Mining sector is facing a major challenge: the increasing demand for raw materials. In addition, there are strict environment requirements to comply and a greater level of safety for workers to take into account. This situation has determined a revolution for components, which gearboxes are part of.
In fact, gearboxes are crucial mechanical components for this industry as they transmit power and control torque of numerous mining equipment, such as crushers, mills and conveyor systems.
Technology has taken the field to absolve this challenge. Therefore, concurrently with the evolution of mining equipment, the production of gearboxes and gears has followed the progress.
Riduttori Italia - the company specialized in the design and manufacture of custom-made gearboxes - has seen this scenario has a great opportunity for the introduction of its own practical solutions.
After an analysis of the mining industry, we have came to the conclusion that our know-how could have been useful to solve three needs:
The first step in order to limit any possibility of malfunction is the predditive maintenance service. This planned operation allows the gearbox to work properly without recurring maintenance works.
In addition to the planned maintenance to monitor the status of components, technology helps us through the use of detectors to monitor gearbox performance and register aberrations, reporting this data to the machine control unit.
Moreover, the technological progress has occured in the development and manufacturing of gearboxes to improve the technical performance. Not only the above-mentioned integration with detectors for data analysis, but also the use of advanced production, design and simulation techniques has allowed to manufacture gearboxes with performance improvement in reliability and efficiency for mining operations.
This whole progress, together with Riduttori Italia ten-year experience in custom-made solutions development, has globally made our company a reference point for the mining industry through a proposal of projects guaranteed for a long work duration.
