Mining equipment represents enormous capital investment, and road surface quality directly impacts equipment lifespan. Soil Solutions’ optimized road surfaces significantly extend equipment life across all vehicle types.
Equipment Life Extension from Soil Solutions:
Reduced Vibration: Soil Solutions’ smooth sealed EBS road surfaces eliminate the constant vibration from rough roads that causes premature failure of truck frames, suspensions, and mechanical components.
Lower Impact Forces: Soil Solutions’ elimination of potholes and surface irregularities reduces shock loads that damage truck beds, suspensions, and chassis structures.
Tire Life Extension: Soil Solutions’ smooth, stable surfaces extend tire life by 20-40% through reduced wear, cuts, and heat buildup.
Reduced Dust Infiltration: Soil Solutions’ EBS treated dust-free roads prevent fine particles from infiltrating engines, transmissions, hydraulic systems, and electrical components—major causes of premature failure.
Consistent Load Distribution: Soil Solutions’ sealed pavement surface allows proper load distribution, reducing stress on drivetrain components and extending their service life.
Lower Operating Temperatures: Soil Solutions’ EBS treated road surface will provide reduced rolling resistance allows engines and drivetrains to operate at lower temperatures, extending component life.
Reduced Maintenance Frequency: Equipment operating on Soil Solutions’ EBS treated roads requires less frequent maintenance, reducing wear from maintenance activities and extending overall equipment life.
Financial Impact: Extended equipment life defers capital replacement costs, reduces financing costs, and improves overall mine economics. For large mining operations, Soil Solutions’ equipment life extension can represent tens of millions in avoided costs.
