Erection and Commissioning
New plants and line upgrades, where the mine has foundations and HV ready.

How it runs
Set
Grouting and alignment of every machine on its foundation. The alignment report is written at this step, not after a failure.
Turn
No-load run. The plant is turned over empty, before any ore goes in.
Ore
Loaded run at the agreed output. CSS, stroke and amps are written down against the t/h they gave.
Sign the sheet
Both sides sign the first-ore sheet. That sheet is the baseline for the next six months of wear.
What is in it
Handover is a sheet, not a handshake
CSS, stroke, amps and the t/h they produced, on paper, signed by both sides.
A crew, not a crowd
One installation supervisor and one fitter on the pad. Cranage and civil work stay with the mine.
Scope is on the quote
Foundations, HV supply and the crane are named as the mine's, so they are not discovered on site.
The sheet starts the wear clock
First-ore figures set the six-month wear forecast and the date of the first reline.
What’s delivered
Alignment report: each machine's position and alignment on its foundation, recorded.
First-ore acceptance sheet: CSS, stroke, amps and the t/h at the agreed setting, signed by both sides.
Send the rock type. Get a first view on t/h.
Tell the applications desk the rock, the target product, and whether it's a pit, a decline, or a quarry. An engineer replies within three working days with a first view on tonnage and a first-steel date.
