The Tech Edge Group, based in Kempton Park, Gauteng, recently supplied winches, winders and a range of ancillary products and services for a new service shaft at a gold mine based in East Asia.
The group supplied all the relevant structural and civil designs and drawings, during the design phase of the project. Their scope of supply during the execution phase included single drum service and stage winders, a complete headgear structure, jack catches, winder house, winder ropes and attachments, guide ropes and cheese weights, aluminium cages/conveyances, sheave wheels and shaft communications systems and interlocking.
The winders and related equipment were commissioned in house during the factory acceptance testing, resulting in the on-site commissioning being a much more effective and efficient process.
