EMtek was engaged by industry-leading Fortescue to reduce the time it took to isolate various conveyor systems at the Christmas Creek mine. The major constraint was the isolation of the gravity take-up units on a number of conveyors. As isolation processes were previously manual, EMtek successfully designed maintenance winches to decrease the isolation time. The detailed design and engineering work was awarded to EMtek on the back of the concept engineering study that was completed by EMtek earlier in 2020.
