Empowering Mining Operations: Enerpac's Innovative Solutions for Efficiency and Safety

In the dynamic world of mining, where productivity and safety are paramount, Enerpac, a leader in hydraulic tools and lifting systems, is set to showcase its cutting-edge solutions at the upcoming MINExpo 2024. From shovel maintenance to vehicle upkeep and remote operations, Enerpac's comprehensive range of tools and technologies are poised to revolutionize the way mining projects are executed.

Elevating Mining Efficiency and Safety with Enerpac's Innovative Solutions

Shovel Maintenance: Ensuring Optimal Performance and Longevity

Mining shovels are the workhorses of the industry, tasked with moving vast quantities of earth and rock. However, these heavy-duty machines require regular maintenance to maintain their peak performance. Enerpac's SCJ-Series cube jacks, hydraulic cylinders, and controlled lifting pumps play a crucial role in enabling efficient and safe shovel overhaul. By leveraging Enerpac's jacking technology, mining operators can safely lift and separate the shovel cab from the undercarriage, allowing for thorough inspection and repair of the tracks and bearings. The synchronous lifting provided by Enerpac's solutions ensures the stability of the shovel, safeguarding both the equipment and the maintenance crew.

Versatile Lifting Solutions: Cube Jacks and Hydraulic Pumps for Diverse Applications

Enerpac's SCJ-50 and SCJ-100 Self-Locking Cube Jacks offer a compact and portable solution for incremental lifting and lowering of heavy loads. These hydraulic jacks, available in 50-ton and 100-ton capacities, can be used in a variety of mining applications, from equipment maintenance to vehicle unloading and the jacking of transformers, modules, or bridges. By utilizing multiple cube jacks, mining operations can safely lift loads of several hundred tons to heights of up to 3 meters. Complementing the cube jacks, Enerpac's SFP-Series Split Flow Hydraulic Pumps provide a versatile solution for multi-point lifting and lowering applications, ensuring even load distribution and precise positioning.

Efficient Load Movement: Enerpac's Low-Height Skidding System

For mining projects that require the movement of heavy loads over short distances, Enerpac's LH400 Low-Height Skidding System offers a modular and efficient solution. With a capacity of 400 tons, this system utilizes a series of skid beams moved by hydraulic push-pull units, allowing for the safe and controlled relocation of equipment during installation and maintenance. The low-profile design of the skidding system minimizes the need for extensive site preparation, making it a practical choice for a wide range of mining applications.

Truck Maintenance: Enerpac's Pow'R-LOCK for Safe Lifting and Holding

Maintaining the heavy-duty trucks that are essential to mining operations is a critical task. Enerpac's Pow'R-LOCK self-locking jacks, with a lifting capacity of up to 200 tons, provide a reliable and safe solution for lifting, lowering, and holding these vehicles during maintenance. The Locking U-Rings, an accessory to the Pow'R-LOCK, offer an additional layer of safety by enabling secure mechanical cribbing of the lifted load.

Remote Operations: Enerpac's Cordless Battery Pumps for Increased Mobility

Many mining projects are situated in remote and challenging locations, where access to power sources can be limited. Enerpac's SC-Series Cordless Battery Pumps address this challenge by providing a portable, battery-powered solution for a wide range of hydraulic applications. Compact, fast, and precise, these pumps offer extended battery runtimes, allowing operators to undertake larger jobs in difficult-to-access workspaces. The Enerpac Connect app further enhances the user experience by providing job-specific usage data for improved traceability and precision.

Versatile Torque Solutions: Enerpac's Hydraulic Torque Wrenches and Cordless Torque Pumps

Bolting applications are a crucial aspect of mining equipment maintenance, and Enerpac's RSL-Series Low Profile and Square Drive Hydraulic Torque Wrenches offer a simple and robust solution. Designed to operate in tight spaces, these torque wrenches can be paired with Enerpac's Cordless Torque Pumps, providing a portable and efficient fastening solution for applications where power sources are limited or pose safety concerns.

Powerful Removal Solutions: Enerpac's Hydraulic Lock-Grip Puller

For larger vehicle maintenance projects, Enerpac's LGH3100 Hydraulic Lock-Grip Puller is engineered to tackle the challenge of removing heavy and stubborn components. Featuring a smooth-action scissor lift, synchronized grip jaws, and an intuitive operator station, this tool allows a single operator to safely and efficiently remove large wheel shafts, bearings, and couplers with minimal damage.

Comprehensive Toolbox Solutions: Enerpac's 10-Ton Wheeled Toolbox Set

Rounding out Enerpac's showcase at MINExpo 2024 is the multifunctional Enerpac 10-Ton Wheeled Toolbox Set. This versatile solution includes a 10-ton capacity general-purpose cylinder, two 10-ton low-height cylinders, a 10-ton hollow plunger cylinder for pulling jobs, a hand pump, and all the essential components housed in an industrial-strength aluminum container. This comprehensive toolbox set provides mining operators with a portable and reliable solution for a wide range of hydraulic tasks.
