BAUXITE MINING

Compared with heavy motorised scrapers, excavators and haul trucks, K-Tec articulated truck scrapers are very low ground pressure earthmovers.

The considerably light footprint of the K-Tec scraper is ideal for removing topsoil and overburden without disturbing the delicate iron ore seams beneath.

K-Tec scrapers are also highly effective in extracting caprock and ore without disturbing lower layers of material.

K-Tec 1237 articulated scraper trains are immensely popular in bauxite mining applications.

Configuring the scrapers in tandem as double capacity trains greatly reduces haul cost from the pit to the crushing facility.

K-Tec scrapers are also extremely effective for construction of roads to site and internal haul roads due to their highly efficient carrying speed and low cost per cubic metre over long haul distances.

With a range of new low-hour articulated trucks in our fleet, our range of K-Tec pull scrapers offer significantly lower operational costs in bauxite mining projects.

At Scraper Hire Australia, our service extends to operator training and hire support.

Ask our team for an obligation-free assessment of your project conditions to recommend the ideal power unit and pull scraper combination to ensure maximum productivity for your next bulk material handling project.
