In the mineral-rich regions of the African continent, efficiency and reliability are the lifelines of mining operations. We are honored to have collaborated with a leading gold mining company in Africa to supply core hoisting equipment for their newly developed deep-shaft mine. Facing challenges such as significant depth, heavy loads, and demanding environmental conditions, we delivered a complete solution comprising 2JK series mining hoists and permanent steel headframes, ensuring the project's smooth commissioning and long-term, stable operation.
During the expansion phase of this gold mine project, the client required a hoisting system capable of addressing the following key challenges:
Deep Hoisting Capability: With increasing mine depth, a high-power, highly stable hoist was essential to ensure the efficient transportation of ore and personnel.
Extreme Reliability Requirements: The continuous nature of gold mining operations meant any equipment failure could lead to significant production losses. The equipment had to guarantee safe, uninterrupted operation 24/7.
Long-Term Investment Value: The client desired infrastructure, especially the headframe, to have a long service life, capable of withstanding decades of weather erosion and heavy-duty use, thereby reducing future maintenance costs.
Environmental Adaptability: The local climatic conditions in Africa demanded enhanced corrosion resistance and stability from the equipment.
Our Provided Solution
Following in-depth technical discussions and site surveys, we tailored an end-to-end solution centered on the 2JK hoist and permanent headframe.
1. Core Equipment: 2JK Series Double-Drum Mining Hoist
Powerful Performance & Precise Control: Designed specifically for medium to large-scale mines, this hoist delivers powerful lifting force, ensuring the rapid and smooth lifting and lowering of heavily loaded ore skips. It is equipped with an advanced electrical control system for precise speed regulation and positioning.
Dual Safety Assurance: A comprehensive safety braking system provides redundant protection for hoisting operations, fully complying with international mining safety standards, giving the client complete peace of mind.
High-Reliability Design: Utilizing premium materials and precision manufacturing processes, with critical components undergoing reinforcement treatment, ensures exceptional durability under high-intensity operation.
2. Infrastructure: Permanent Steel Headframe
Robust and Durable: Manufactured using high-strength structural steel, the design offers strong overall stability, capable of withstanding the immense loads generated by the hoisting system as well as local wind loads.
Exceptionally Long Service Life: The headframe surface receives special anti-corrosion treatment (such as hot-dip galvanizing or high-performance coatings), effectively resisting corrosion from Africa's humid, rainy climate and ensuring decades of service.
Modular Design: Facilitates transportation and on-site installation, effectively shortening the client's project construction timeline and reducing installation costs.
