With over 30 years in the mining industry, I’ve seen how small decisions can make or break a site’s productivity. Here are four straightforward tips to help you reduce downtime and keep your equipment running.

Spot Wear Early to Save Costs

Breakdowns rarely happen without warning. Look for early signs of wear—lines, cracks, or loose pins—and act quickly. Addressing these issues early can prevent costly repairs and keep your site operational. Regular inspections are key to catching problems before they escalate.

Match Your Parts to Your Conditions

Not all wear parts perform the same in every environment. Hard rock, wet pits, or sandy conditions each demand specific edges, liners, or bucket teeth. If your parts are wearing out faster than expected, they might not suit your ground conditions. Contact us to find the right fit for your site and avoid unnecessary expenses.

Consider Custom Solutions for Your Mine

Off-the-shelf parts don’t always cut it. For unique challenges, custom-built solutions can make a difference. At West-Trak, we design, cut, machine, press, and weld in-house to create parts tailored to your site’s needs. This ensures better performance and longer-lasting equipment.
