We upgrade aging drive systems from ABB, GE, P&H, Reliance Robicon, Westinghouse and others.Our Advanced Firing Module (AFM) is used to upgrade existing DC drives to “new drive” performance. These cost-effective retrofits can extend the life of your drive system by replacing your outdated and obsolete regulators with state-of-the-art ADDvantage-32 Plus digital regulators. The SCR power bridges, cabinets, wiring, and DC motors are retained. Benefits of a drive system retrofit include: • Significantly reduced cost compared to a total system replacement • Extended life for your drive system • Minimal installation downtime

Our project engineering team has over 40 years of experience designing, building, installing and commissioning custom engineered mining solutions.Areas of expertise cover a wide range of mining applications including mine hoists, electric shovels, draglines, blasthole drills, grinding mills, conveyor systems, slurry pumps, dredges, cranes and rectifiers.

In addition to AC and DC drives, our staff has extensive experience with all major brands of PLCs, HMIs, and networks.

Additional services provided: • Application consulting • On-site project management • Turn-key installations

Customized packaging solutionsCustom designed and manufactured modular pre-assembled power control rooms to meet your specifications.

Each custom engineered drive panel assembly is delivered ready to install which greatly reduces commissioning time.

Custom panels allow equipment owners to more efficiently utilize the limited space available on mobile equipment.

Nidec Industrial Solutions is committed to helping you maximize your mine’s performance.Our Pillars of Support programs will minimize down-time and maximize machine availability. • Emergency service 24 hours/day, 365 days/year • Emergency shipment of critical spare parts • After hours phone support • Predictive and preventive maintenance contracts • Online software and documentation backup

A Remote Diagnostics connection allows our trained engineers to access your drive control system in real time, 24/7/365.Looking at the same diagnostic screens as your technicians, our engineers can help determine the root cause of a problem. They can guide you through a repair of your equipment and return it to service before a service tech could travel to your site.

Increased Machine Availability • Improved mean time to repair • Problem resolution begins remotely, immediately

Reduced Maintenance Costs • Eliminate the need for a site visit • Avoid unscheduled down-time by monitoring device wear • Get back into production faster

Greater Collaboration with Specific Experts • Compare data from multiple machines and sites • Improve utilization of equipment by optimizing performance

We provide an array of training options, emphasizing a “hands-on” approach:

On-Site Training at your business or work site • More cost effective • Flexible scheduling • System specific
