From Breakdowns to Continuous Operation: 3 Key Transformations at an Iron Mine with Our Equipment

Date: Jul 07, 2025

"Previously, equipment failures caused 8 days of downtime per month, but now the large mining crawler excavator achieves zero unplanned downtime!" This is the real feedback from a major South American iron mine after replacing equipment with Hengwang's solutions. As a benchmark case in global mining, their three key transformations deserve attention from all mining enterprises.

1. Equipment Reliability: From Frequent Repairs to Round-the-Clock Operation

The old models used previously suffered from inadequate high-temperature resistance and fragile hydraulic systems, leading to an average of 8 days of downtime per month. After switching to Hengwang's large mining crawler excavator HW-1300, its three-stage fuel filtration system and nano-level dust-proof design completely resolved jamming issues. Combined with double-tooth track grip technology, the large mining crawler excavator maintains stable operation under extreme conditions, enabling 24/7 continuous operation.

2. Production Leap: The Core Secret Behind a 25% Annual Output Increase

Equipped with a 280KW high-power engine and a 2.4-2.8m³ large bucket, the large mining crawler excavator HW-1300 boosts single-bucket loading efficiency by 40%. Paired with an intelligent remote control system, nighttime operation efficiency remains uncompromised. Mine data shows that daily mining cycles have increased from 8 to 12, with the large mining crawler excavator driving a direct 25% annual production increase.

3. Cost Revolution: The Secret to 40% Lower Maintenance Costs

Hengwang's large mining crawler excavator features modular maintenance design, reducing wear-and-tear part replacement time by 60%, and a fault self-diagnosis system that pre-warns potential issues. Comparative data shows that the iron mine has achieved a 50% reduction in hydraulic oil consumption, a 3-fold extension in filter element replacement cycles, and an overall 40% drop in annual maintenance costs.
