Randall Scott, Sleipner Finland Oy

The utilization rate of heavy loading equipment in mining and quarrying is a crucial factor for the economic performance of the site. Higher moving speed increases the productivity of the entire process significantly. The presentation will show how Sleipner system makes it possible to reduce the relocation time of excavators remarkably. Coinciding reduction in maintenance costs and carbon foot print are other major assets of the system. It can be demonstrated by field measurements showing that economic benefits are outstanding without making any changes to the existing fleet.
