Maintenance
Savings in reducer maintenance work
$300,000 / year
Downhill Conveyor will transport ore from 5200 m.a.s.l. to processing plant
and regenerate energy
Smaller footprint
Simplified layout
Higher efficiency reduction of operating
cost
Reduction of maintenance cost
Reduction of noise
Elimination of vibrations
No oil leaks / spills
Safe (less rotating parts / hot surfaces)
Higher availability through less down time
of electrical and mechanical equipment
Reduction of spare parts
