Key Project Information
Equipment Cleaning Works at Amyntaio Mine 2014
Brief Description of the Scope
The project involves maintenance and cleaning works for mechanical equipment and belt conveyors at the Amyntaio Mine of the Ptolemaida – Amyntaio Lignite Center, for the years 2014 and 2015.
The objective is to ensure seamless operation of the belt conveyors and extension of their service life. Furthermore, cleaning also aims to eliminate point charges and restore alignment, to avoid increased wear and tear of the rubber lining and drive rollers.
Belt Conveyor Cleaning & Maintenance
To ensure the proper operation of the belt conveyors, they were serviced and cleaned of residual material deposits, and their alignment was checked and restored. Cleaning is accomplished with the use of special devices, metal and/or plastic scrapers.
