Mining

The hazardous conditions of underground and open-cut mining call for rugged material-handling equipment that is built to endure moisture, corrosion, abrasive dust and ignitable fumes. At Konecranes, we understand the challenges of mining and the problems caused by equipment downtime. So we design and manufacture mining cranes and other material-handling equipment that are equipped to handle the task. We also back the superior design and quality of our equipment with industry-leading service.
