Context

Aggregate quarries supply major infrastructure projects across Africa. These operations combine crushing, screening, washing and conveying that subject equipment to intense wear. Cost optimisation hinges on wear management: liners, screen cloths and panels represent 30–50% of operating costs. MINEFECT helps you select consumables matched to your rock, volumes and grading objectives.

Key challenges

01

Crusher wear-component degradation

A liner alloy poorly matched to your rock hardness causes premature replacements and frequent stoppages.

02

Screening efficiency

Blinded or torn panels degrade sizing and increase reprocessing.

03

Dust emissions and compliance

Siliceous dust is a health risk and African regulation is tightening.

Our solutions

  • Crusher liners

    Manganese steel, chrome alloy or bi-metal matched to hardness and abrasivity.

  • Screen panels and cloths

    Polyurethane, rubber and wire cloth for dry or wet screening.

  • Anti-wear liners

    Chrome plate, polyurethane and rubber for hoppers and chutes.

  • Conveyor belts and splices

    EP/ST belts with mechanical or vulcanised splices.

  • Dust suppression systems

    Misting ramps and hygroscopic additives at transfer points.
