Queensland Caterpillar dealer Hastings Deering has custom rebuilt eight 793F’s for Stanmore Resources, a metallurgical coal supplier with operations and exploration projects in the Bowen and Surat basins.
Considered the workhorse of the mine site, Stanmore Resources needed eight of its 793F trucks rebuilt.
In 2023, Hastings Deering’s Mackay business centre completed all eight rebuilds with custom scopes. The team developed a scope and tailored package that suited Stanmore Resources’ requirements at site.
This included an individual scope for each truck to ensure the highest quality of work. All trucks were up to their 24,000-hour mark, meaning they required deep level maintenance and didn’t all have the same requirements.
The teams’ goal for the project was to achieve reliability for the customer by ensuring that the project was on time, on budget and of high quality.
“Reliability brings availability, which is what is required by the business [Stanmore Resources] for these machines,” Stanmore Resources senior reliability engineer – Poitrel mine Ryan Shortis said.
Hastings Deering has the ability to offer a tailored solution from individual component replacements through to its full machine certified rebuilds, offering a 24-month, 10,000-hour warranty.
Why rebuild?
The result of a Cat certified rebuild is that equipment performs like it’s new, at a fraction of the cost. Once rebuilt you’ll also receive warranty on the replaced Cat parts.
