Mining Consumable Track Pins Created by Fortis Mining Engineering Manufacturing

The mining consumable, Track Pins, were developed by Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing to help assist undercutters at various mine sites.


Undercutters are used to cut the floor or wall in the mine to create a pathway so the ground is able to move. The Track Pin was created for the Under Cutter to ensure that it continuously operates effectively.

The Track Pin helps reduce the maintenance on mining Undercutters. Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing's Track Pin is made with an alternative type of steel to safeguard it from breaking.

Fortis Mining Engineering & Manufacturing Creates Custom Tool Skid for Mosaic Colonsay

Fortis Manufacturing and Engineering was contracted by Mosaic Colonsay to manufacture a custom Tool Skid.


Mosaic Colonsay requested a Tool Skid in order to store tools, parts, and slings. Using a Tool Skid for storing tools and parts is necessary because the Skid can be locked and secured to ensure that all equipment is accounted for.


What makes the Tool Skid unique is that it can be skidded around wherever it is needed and it can be secured and locked. The portability and locking mechanism allows for the Tool Skid to be easily utilized in numerous situations. 


Tool Skids can be used in a variety of industries, jobs, or locations including construction and mining sites. The custom specifications including the storage, skid, and locking mechanism can accommodate all sizes of skids. 

 

Mosaic Colonsay was very satisfied with the work completed by Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing. For more information about Tool Skids or custom manufacturing, please contact us.

Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing Engineers & Fabricates a Unique Reel Winder Trailer

Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing recently completed a job that required both engineering, manufacturing, and fabrication services. Searching for an efficient and safer alternative to transport reels,  Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing was tasked with creating a Reel Winder Trailer to fit specific client needs. 


There are many unique specifications that the client required Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing to adhere to to ensure the success of the Reel Winder Trailer.


The location that the reels were to be moved is very narrow. Therefore, the Reel Winder Trailer had to be engineered to move through this space, while still allowing for the pick up of different sizes of reels from diameter to width. 


The engineered Reel Winder Trailer is narrow and capable of picking up various sizes of reels up to a maximum capacity of 21 tons using hydraulic auxiliary outlets. 


Wire rope, plastic, pipe, and numerous other products that come on a reel can be transported using the Reel Winder Trailer. Fortis Mining Engineering and Manufacturing was able to successfully meet the client's specific and unique needs in order to provide a superior solution for reel transport.
