Success Story | Sumitomo Paramax Drives for Wilpinjong Coal Mine
Industry: Mining
Sumitomo Drive Technologies, Australia, recently supplied complete drive packages to be installed at the Wilpinjong Coal Mine Site located Northeast of Mudgee in NSW. The team responsible for both the design and installation of infrastructure is made up of a joint venture between Theiss and Sedgeman. Sumitomo Drive Technologies delivered eight complete drive packages ranging in size from 45kW to 280kW for use on the conveyor systems.
All drive packages were assembled on specially designed base plates, and are complete with motors, fluid couplings or grid type couplings on the reducer inputs, shrink disc rigid couplings on the outputs and all guards. After workshop assembly all were laser aligned and subjected to a no-load test run using Sumitomo Drive Technologies' purpose-built test rig before final inspection and delivery to the site. Sumitomo Drive Technologies' Managing Director, Steve Wightman said, "We are delighted to be awarded the supply contract for this Greenfield Mine Site project. This is the first time we have worked with Thiess Sedgeman and look forward to a long association with both companies." He added, “We believe our success in this instance is due to our promotion of quality power transmission products and ability to customize those products to our clients' needs.”
The Paramax range is one of the most comprehensive available on today's market, comprising 26 standard frame sizes, all available in a number of configurations as well as a specially designed cooling tower fan drive. Parallel offset or right-angle types with solid or hollow output shafts are available. Additions such as Labyrinth or taconite sealing, backstop options and if noise emission is a problem, the option of precision ground bevel sets on the high-speed reducer inputs will drastically reduce the noise levels.
Sumitomo Drive Technologies is one of the world's largest gear manufacturers. It offers a range of reducers and gear motors for all applications, and its `Seisa Gear division' has the ability to engineer special design gear reducers or speed increasers up to 10,000 kW.
Success Story | Coal Handling Conveyors for the Mining Industry
Challenge
Responsible for purchasing and organizing supplies for this coal mine, the maintenance planner found that it was becoming increasingly more difficult to find and gather parts to fulfill internal orders. To overcome this challenge, the mine decided to create a program to simplify the ordering of spare parts and spare kits.
The facility wanted to partner with a manufacturer who could provide engineering, customer service and maintenance expertise to support the current program. Sumitomo Machinery Corporation of America (SMA) began creating a plan to meet and exceed the customer's expectations.
Solution
Multiple members of the Sumitomo team worked hard to accomplish the end user's goals. Sumitomo implemented a Paramax binder project for the account, featuring an organized configurator price quote with a competitive multiplier for distribution. Sumitomo strengthened the personal relationship with machinery lubrication, long-term prep, and hands-on local support.
Results
To solidify the partnership with the end user, SMA's team members were invited to participate in a spring seminar between the coal mine and power generating company.
The efforts that SMA made over the two-year span with the customer produced about $1.3M in purchases. Moving forward, the customer is expected to continue to purchase Paramax spares and replacement units from SMA considering that Sumitomo Machinery Corporation of America was able to deliver the ideal solutions to meet the needs of the end user.
"A long term prep procedures guide and program will help us ensure our recently purchased Paramax units are correctly stored and maintained."-The Customer, Marissa, IL
Success Story | Sumitomo-Hansen's P4 UniMiner is a Good Fit with West River Conveyors
West River Conveyors & Machinery Company (www.WestRiverConveyor) is a leader in custom-built, custom-designed belt drives for coal and potash applications and is one of Sumitomo-Hansen’s largest P4 UniMiner drive consumer.
Sumitomo-Hansen’s P4 UniMiner drives are used on many of West River's belt drives based on the flexibility and high customer satisfaction of the products. Customers find benefit in the universal and flippable mounting features of the P4 UniMiner, eliminating the need to buy reducers specifically oriented for each installation. This is a great advantage to users wanting to purchase spares for future changeouts where one reducer covers all orientations.
“The design layouts and features of the UniMiner Drive work well with our application”, states Jerry Roulett, President of West River. “The selection of sizes and offerings available per HP and RPM for the Hansen P4 UniMiner Drives fit the needs of West River’s applications perfectly. “We have had great customer acceptance with the P4 UniMiner. Customers who have installed our drives in their operations will speak highly about the quality of the reducers. We’ve been using Hansen UniMiners on our belt drives for over a decade now.”
West River’s Purchasing agents especially like the working relationship they have with Sumitomo-Hansen.
