Every year, the Mackay Showgrounds come alive for the Queensland Mining Expo (QME), during which suppliers and visitors from around the country have an opportunity to interact face-to-face. Michael Greelish, National Accounts Manager for Mining at Motion Australia, says that being able to connect with customers,...

The industrial energy transition and race to decrease emissions is well underway and turning critical targets into tangible change is now at the forefront of widespread planning. By nature, the mining industry is often characterised by its potential to release hazardous elements into the air, water,...

Conveyors are a crucial piece of equipment for quarrying operations, utilising a combination of rollers, belts, bearings and pulleys to transport material around the site. According to Michael Greelish, National Account Manager for Mining, Quarrying and Resources at Motion Australia, bearing failure is one of...

Despite increased demand for raw materials, the Australian quarrying industry faces ongoing issues around global supply chain and skill shortages. The smarter allocation of time and labour, such as the implementation of remote monitoring solutions, will help to ease these pressures and prevent costly downtime,...

Energy consumption, particularly on hydraulic units, is a core focus of the Australian mining sector, as the industry shifts towards more long-term sustainable practices. Analysing this consumption with frequent audits can assist companies to reduce or re-distribute energy more efficiency, unveiling opportunities for cost savings. “Questions...

Meeting efficiency targets while minimising downtime is a core priority in Australia’s aluminium sector, which is the largest producer of bauxite in the world. On a smelting plant in Victoria, CBC has been working to supply durable componentry for long wear-life on processing machinery. “CBC carried...

As their national servicing network expands, Motion Australia aims to provide a closed loop offering across seals, fluid power, hydraulics, drive solutions, bearings and couplings. This full spectrum expertise reduces the number of external vendors needed to attend issues on-site, and is supported by practical...

“The service life of a vibrating screen has been historically finite, due to the stress, force and movement of material,” says Michael Greelish, National Account Manager for the Mining, Quarrying, and Resources for CBC. “As a result, vibrating screens frequently fail to achieve reliability and longevity on quarrying operations.” Furthermore, Michael emphasises that the overall output and productivity of a quarrying operation will largely depend on the performance of the vibrating screen applications, and the performance...

The Timken® Spherical Roller Bearing Solid-Block Housed Units are solid-blocks of steel that have been designed to eliminate the risk of bearing contamination. “These units are completely sealed off and come pre-assembled – unlike standard bearings which are supplied in separate components, the bearing, housing and...

As an effort to curb electricity consumption in heavy industries like mining, more and more mines are implementing high-efficiency motors in their processes. CBC’s Mining National Accounts Manager Michael Greelish discusses why products like TECO’s MAXe3 and TECO MAXe3 Premium high-efficiency motors make business sense for...
