MEDATECH Engineering Services Ltd.’s Post

MINExpo is like the Olympics: it only happens every four years and when it does it’s a pretty big deal. This week’s show was excellent for MEDATech, with significant interest in battery-electric powertrains / kits, electric conversions, feasibility & consulting, and charging. Everyone is getting the idea that the transition to an electric mine is not just about battery-powered vehicles, but about the entire electrification ecosystem. We’re excited to be part of leading that transition, and we will show how to get from planning to action—profitably—Energy and Mines in Toronto on November 13th. Hope to see you at the MEDATech Roundtable: How to Navigate the Mine Electrification Ecosystem.

A big thanks to Equipment Journal for their coverage of our safety-forward work on RodBot with Major Drilling! Interest in robotic rod handling continues to grow...no surprise there. #safedrilling #safemining #rodhandling #roboticrodhandling #futureofmining

Thanks to Canadian Mining Journal and International Mining for the shout-out regarding our groundbreaking #ITH-Raise drill, the world's first ITH-Raise drill designed and built for drilling 48" diameter holes. The MEDATech Borterra RaisePro-48T is on the road to its debut at MINExpo INTERNATIONAL in Las Vegas Sept. 24-26 where you can see it in the North Hall, Booth 721. Built to drill 42” to 48” diameter manways/escapeways, it has the torque and hoisting capacity required for raise boring and the speed needed for production drilling. From 48” it will drill right down to 3.5” diameter, making it useful for production drilling, maintenance & service holes, and blast hole slot raises as well as manways/escapeways.

We recently opened the doors to our newest engineering office in Collingwood. Just down the street from our facility at 35 Sanford Fleming, this bright, open space at no. 115 has all the room we need to execute our strategic growth plan. The new space encourages collaborative communication in our multi-disciplinary teams, as they design and build industry-leading, battery-electric heavy duty off-road equipment for power-intensive industries. #engineering #batteryelectric #newfacility #growingagain #smartmining #materialhandling #canadiancompany #mobileequipmentengineering

We are excited to announce our latest product line of ITH-Raise drills, designed and built by MEDATech and distributed and supported by our partner Archer Mining & Civil Services Inc. The RaisePro-48T is an impressive rig, capable of drilling up to 48" diameter holes with a Center Rock cluster hammer drill for underground escapeways. Come see it in person at MINExpo INTERNATIONAL! #escapeway #undergroundmining #safety #innovation

Meet Borterra WaterBox™, a self-contained, self-sufficient pump for down-the-hole (DTH) water hammer drilling. Drop it into place and a digital control system manages pump speed and engine throttle to maximize efficiency, displaying precise pressure and flowrate for the operator. Specs are: max 3000 psi, 120 gpm max flow rate, with high volume, 10-micron water filters. Choose electric power or a top-of-the-line EPA Tier 4F diesel engine, which is the configuration we have in the shop, ready for delivery.

We had a great visit with Ricky Alvarado and the team at Watson/Hopper, Inc. up from Delta, Colorado to see hybrid diesel/electric conversions in action. What a great bunch to work with! #hybridelectric #smartcompletion #greenrigs #greenengineering #swusa
