Did you know, starter motors are built much tougher than an average car starter? Mining vehicles like excavators often operate in extreme conditions such as extremely cold or scorching heat and a bumpy surface. Due to this, our mining starter motors are designed to be larger and handle more stress.
Companies that struggle with unreliable starts for large engines, especially in heavy mining machinery, find reduction gear starters best for optimum performance. In mining, cold, dirty and other extreme conditions to the environment can cause traditional starters to fail and most have chosen to purchase reduction gear starter motors from us.
In mining, haul trucks, excavators and other large machinery need reliable starters that can handle harsh conditions. Heavy-duty electric starter motors are durable, meaning their construction leads to fewer breakdowns and maintenance expenses. They improve energy successfully by drawing less power and has an extended battery life.
Direct drive starter motors have a simple and direct connection between te starter motor and the engine without any intermediate gears. This simplicity makes them more affordable, easy to install, easy to repair and maintain. Since the direct drive starter motors have fewer moving parts compared to gear-reduction starterd, they tend to be more reliable in certain applications.
Heavy machinery like loaders, trucks and drills, use hydraulic starters because they perform reliably in dusty, dirty and high-risk environments. They also don’t rely on electricity, which makes them suitable for remote locations or areas where power is unreliable and are unaffected by temperature issues that affect battery-powered systems.
