Bulk materials handling solutions pro- vider ELB Engineering Services officially launched the ELB Conveyor Maintenance company at the ELB service facility in Middelburg, Mpumalanga, earlier this month.

ELB Conveyor Maintenance provides commissioning and maintenance services for conveyors and associated equipment, with the capability to commission and fine-tune any type of conveyor for successful handover to the client.

The company also provides maintenance services for materials handling systems, including stockyard machines and bulk loading systems, and draws on the engineering and intellectual base of ELB Engineering Services to provide technical services.

“We previously outsourced services for each project that involved conveyors, so we created this division to provide short- and long-term maintenance services,” said ELB Engineering Services business development GM and director Tony Pinto at the launch.

He added that the service offering by ELB Conveyor Maintenance benefited clients with ageing plants, as capital expenditure was constrained in many parts of Africa.

ELB Conveyor Maintenance can reduce the expenses of conveyor belt operations, maintenance and associated problems, and provide companies with smooth-running bulk materials handling systems throughout Africa.

The company can also render a complete erection, commissioning and maintenance service, from run-of-mine to load-out stations at mines and from tipplers to ships at port facilities.

ELB focuses on supplying total engineered materials handling solutions and appropriate modular plants to the mining, minerals, power, port, construction and industrial sectors, based on its own in-house capability and technology agreements with established products and companies.

“The ability to provide a total logistics solution from mine to port has become an integral part of our business,” said Pinto.

ELB Maintenance Services director Sharmlin Govender said the company hoped to generate its own business in the industry, rather than relying on business from ELB Engineering Services and ELB Construction.

He added that ELB Maintenance Services was in discussions with State-owned power utility Eskom to establish its presence at all its power stations.
