Mining Equipment

For more than a quarter of a century Mining Equipment has been a world leader in the remanufacture and supply of underground mining and tunnelling equipment for rent or purchase.
Mining Equipment is based in Durango, Colorado, US, with an office in North Bay, Canada. From these strategic locations the company services a worldwide market, with satisfied clients in places as far flung as Australia, China, Ghana, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. In the major markets of the US and Canada, Mining Equipment has built a solid customer base supplying mines and tunnels with everything except the hard hat.
Mining Equiment owns what it offers - they are not brokers. Most of its equipment is based at its shop in Farmington, New Mexico and is available for inspection anytime. An extensive catalogue features TBMs, LHDs, mine trucks and service vehicles, rockdrills and rigs, air compressors, ventilation fans, slushers, air tuggers, mine hoists and stage winches, motor generator sets, sheave wheels, locomotives, mine cars and associated equipment. All of this equipment can be reviewed in the Mining Equipment online database.

Jetair Fans
Also based at the Farmington facility, Mining Equipment manufactures its tough, reliable Jetair fans in a wide variety of sizes from 3 hp to 400 hp and 18 in-diameter to 84 in-diameter.
All Jetair fans are designed to meet or exceed the harsh demands of the underground environment, with fan housings of steel plate with continuous welded joints, and hubs and blades of cast aluminium. The optional Jetair integrated fan and silencer is compact, easy to handle, and very quiet.
Each fan is balanced twice during manufacture to ensure smooth running in operation. All have external grease leads and two lifting eyes.
Mining Equipment also offers a full range of ventilation accessories, all of which can be built to specific requirements. Stocks of common sized fans are available for immediate delivery, and other sizes can generally be provided within 2-4 weeks. A wide selection of used fans of all makes is kept ready for rebuild to customers' orders. The company will also roll up to 5 ft-diameter ventilation pipe at site for mines and tunnels.
