Conveyors in Saldanha

Saldanha Bay is the end of the long Sishen-Saldanha rail line, and its deep-water port exports iron ore in very large volumes. Trains tip ore into the terminal, where conveyors, stackers, reclaimers and ship loaders move it to bulk carriers. The surrounding industrial zone also includes steelmaking, fish processing, oil and gas services and marine engineering. The west coast is dry, windy and salty, with fine ore dust and corrosion hitting conveyor structures, rollers and drives. Maintenance planning is critical because the terminal must keep running to shipping schedules. Local contractors work alongside teams from Cape Town and Vredenburg, about 140 kilometres away, with larger components coming from further afield.
