Intelligent solutions to improve both safety and efficiency

The TAKRAF X-TREME Class Sizer, here showing a 3,600 t/h machine for bauxite, is designed for superior durability in the harshest of conditions.

As part of our ongoing series of intelligent solutions for increased safety and efficiency in maintenance, we provide below a further maintenance example illustrating just how safety and efficiency can complement one another.

As mining operations invest in more technologically-advanced equipment and site conditions become ever more challenging, efficient but also safe maintenance concepts suited to modern sites are urgently required to protect employees and keep the plant operational.  

Traditional thinking tells us that the increased demand for safety, coupled with the growing complexity of modern mining equipment, leads to more complicated and time-consuming maintenance work, and that, therefore, safety and efficiency are mutually exclusive. 

However, this is not necessarily so as highlighted by the TAKRAF X-TREME Class Sizer. As with all TAKRAF Group products, the TAKRAF X-TREME Class Sizer was developed to meet the requirements of the Group’s intelligent and holistic maintenance philosophy, which facilitates the achievement of both optimal maintenance safety and optimal maintenance efficiency.   

In line with this philosophy, our TAKRAF sizer is engineered, in the first instance, to reduce wear and therefore maintenance, through its superior durability,abrasion resistance and intake behavior.  

Furthermore, it is designed for a high level of maintenance flexibility to adapt the best concepts appropriate for each individual application. For example, the sizer provides for maximum flexibility in machine dismantling, from replacing each tooth (pick) or segment radially in any position to replacing entire
