Mining involves two basic excavation techniques – surface and sub-surface mining. In view of the dangerous working environment, the reliability and continuous availability of equipment used is paramount. It is for this reason that modern measurement techniques are applied during equipment maintenance.

Modern measurement technology for machine maintenance
Important production line areas where PRÜFTECHNIK vibration measurement techniques come to use include:

• Conveyor systems (VIBRONET Signalmaster)
• Overburden removal equipment (VIBRONET Signalmaster, VIBROWEB XP)
• Ventilators (VIBXPERT)
• Pumps (VIBSCANNER, VIBCODE)

For the alignment of the drive systems use is made of shaft (ROTALIGN Ultra) and pulley (PULLALIGN) alignment systems.
