Conveyors in Mokopane

Mokopane, formerly Potgietersrus, is the service town for the northern limb of the Bushveld Complex, where the Platreef is worked by large open-pit and underground platinum mines. Waste rock and ore move on long overland belts to crushers, mills and concentrators, so the area needs wide, high-strength belting, heavy-duty idlers and good lagging. Dust, heat and sharp, abrasive rock shorten the life of covers and scrapers. The town also supports cattle, citrus and game farms, with abattoirs and packhouses that run lighter conveyors. Belting suppliers and splicers are mostly based in Mokopane and Polokwane, about 55 kilometres south, with bigger orders coming from Gauteng.

Typical conveyor belt maintenance requests in the area come from:

Platinum and chrome mines: keeping shaft and concentrator conveyors tracking true under heavy ore loads
Grain silos, sugar mills and packhouses: servicing grain, sugar and fertiliser conveyors before the season so they do not fail at peak
Quarries and sand mines: inspecting crusher and stockpile belts against sharp, abrasive aggregate and heavy impact
Food and beverage factories: inspecting hygienic belts and lines, with cleaning access and food safety rules in mind
Warehouses and distribution centres: keeping warehouse and parcel belts running through peak seasons with planned checks
