When a major coal mining operation faced a critical equipment failure, they needed a solution—fast. Their dragline’s mast link had failed, and the typical approach would require removing the boom and setting the mast on the ground, adding costly downtime. That wasn’t an option.
When a major coal mining operation faced a critical equipment failure, they needed a solution—fast. Their dragline’s mast link had failed, and the typical approach would require removing the boom and setting the mast on the ground, adding costly downtime. That wasn’t an option.
We were called in to assess the job and immediately saw an opportunity to save the client time and money. Instead of the traditional method, we engineered an approach to change out the mast link without fully dismantling the boom—cutting repair time significantly.
Within hours of the first phone call, our team mobilized, bringing in specialized equipment and skilled personnel to execute the job safely and efficiently.
This wasn’t just about getting the job done—it was about getting it done better. When the pressure is on, SCS delivers solutions that keep mining operations moving.
“SCS’s commitment to excellence, continuous learning and developing our workforce is critical to the sustainability of the construction industry. We look forward to continued partnership with NCCER and great success in training our craft professionals for many years to come.”
