Conveyors in Kimberley

Kimberley is the capital of the Northern Cape and a centre of the country's diamond history, with the Big Hole and large old mine dumps still shaping the skyline. Today the area's diamond activity includes kimberlite processing and tailings retreatment, which rely on conveyors, screens and wash plants moving gravel and slurry-fed material. The city is also a regional supply point for farms, quarries and the iron ore and manganese operations further north-west. Summers are very hot and dry, winters cold at night, and fine Kalahari dust gets into bearings and idlers. Local workshops handle repairs and fabrication, while large belting orders usually come from Gauteng or Bloemfontein.

Typical conveyor belt splicing requests in the area come from:

Open-pit iron ore, manganese and diamond mines: long stepped splices on wide steel-cord belts for iron ore and manganese stockpile conveyors
Quarries and sand mines: emergency hot and cold splices on conveyors cut by sharp aggregate
Grain silos, sugar mills and packhouses: splices on grain, sugar and fertiliser belts, timed before harvest and crushing seasons
Warehouses and distribution centres: finger and mechanical splices on parcel sorters and baggage belts, done in short night shutdowns
Cement, steel and process plants: hot and cold splices on belts in cement, steel, paper and recycling plants

Frequently asked questions

What will the job cost in Kimberley?

It depends on the belt and conveyor, the work involved, the crew and hours on site, consumables and travel. Send the form with the belt specification and a short description of the job and a splicing contractor working in Kimberley will quote you.

Can a crew come out for a breakdown in Kimberley?

Many contractors run breakdown and standby crews. Say in your request that it is urgent, what has failed and the site access requirements, so the right people and materials are sent first time.

Do contractors meet mine and plant safety requirements?

Contractors who work on mines and plants are used to site inductions, medical certificates, risk assessments and lock-out procedures. List your site's requirements in the request so they can be priced and arranged in advance.
