Project Overview
Mount Maunganui Engineering is proud to have been involved in developing specialised dewatering pump stands that efficiently remove water from below the surface in gruelling mining conditions.
Our team designed eight versatile pump frames with integrated safety guards with piping supports to minimise pipe movement that could suit various motor sizes, ensuring adaptability and longevity.
Project Outcomes
The seamless pump changeout system lowered downtime while keeping operations running without interruptions. This was due to the hard-wearing, future-proof design developed to withstand harsh mining environments and provide a flexible answer to accommodating future upgrades while reducing the time spent maintaining the machinery.
“Working alongside Oceana Gold and the mining industry at large reinforced the importance of collaboration, adaptability, and accuracy in delivering industrial solutions like these.”
