MINING & EQUIPMENT
Whether underground or open cut, mining always takes place in a hazardous environment. Moisture, corrosive and ignitable fumes, abrasive dust, and the risk of rock face collapse are all real challenges.
A productive mine works fast and rarely stops as ore is sent to processing as soon as it is extracted. Downtime can halt an entire operation and disrupt demanding schedules. Vicolad provides mining cranes and other lifting solutions that help you manage your industrial challenges. Durable and safe equipment to support your minesWe undersatand that heavy duty process cranes always need to be designed for their specific circumstances. Able to carry extra-heavy and dangerous loads, they must also be protected against corrosion from heat, dust, moisture, and constant use.Created specifically for mining, the explosion proof Hevi-Lift hoist is designed for HMI H1 through H5 severe duty requirements. Our coker cranes have been developed just for moving coke, and include protection for both components and operators.
Tailored service duty cranes are particularly good for overhead materials handling in all mining applications.
Not just machines, but service as wellMost mines are hours away from major urban centers, so getting fast, quality service can be difficult. We can locate one technician or entire repair team at your site. Preventive maintenance and expert repairs have never been easier.
OUR SERVICES
MARKETING CONSULTANT & RESEARCHER
We believe in working with clients, not on projects. There are no set theories or methodologies.
The breakthrough ideas come from exploring findings in unconventional ways with clients - be it through our proprietary methods or through tried and tested research techniques.
They all require our researchers to interact closely with clients to understand their markets, their brands, their consumers.Marketing Research is an exacting science and a passionate art. The measurement tools we use are necessarily precise and the processes rigorous. But the interpretation of findings, to us, must possess a deep empathy for the social context and clear understanding of the marketing issues.
Then the findings have true meaning that will be of value to clients.We believe in thinking with clients throughout the process from initial contact to delivery of findings. It does not stop there. Good research findings should facilitate the whole process from product development to brand fulfillment.The difference is in rethinking things, not just fixing things.
Rethinking means coming out with fresh ideas for old problems. Look for researchers who dare to declare a strong opinion for their profession. They will definitely question your preconceptions about research and find ways to rephrase your marketing problems.
