Underground mining operations require specialized equipment that can deliver consistent concrete placement in challenging environments. The MineMate is an advanced concrete pump for mine seals designed to provide efficient mixing and pumping for underground sealing, grouting, and shotcrete applications. As a dependable pump for underground mine seals, the MineMate helps mining professionals complete critical underground projects where ready-mix concrete is unavailable.
Combining powerful pumping technology with continuous mixing capabilities, the MineMate reduces labor requirements and provides a complete solution for underground concrete applications.
Advanced Concrete Pump for Mine Seals
The MineMate is engineered specifically for underground mine sealing projects where reliability and material consistency are essential. It combines Blastcrete's X-10 ultra high-pressure swing tube piston pump with a high shear continuous mixer, creating a single machine capable of mixing and pumping concrete materials directly underground.
This integrated design eliminates the need for separate mixing equipment and improves efficiency in confined mining environments.
High-Performance Pump for Underground Mine Seals
The MineMate delivers the power and flexibility required for underground sealing operations. Its high-pressure pumping system is designed to transport concrete and grout materials over long distances while maintaining consistent performance.
Key pumping features include:
3" × 24" Ultra High Pressure Swing Tube Piston Pump
Pumping pressure up to 2,200 PSI
Output capacity of 0–12 cubic yards per hour
Heavy-duty 3-inch discharge system
Material pumping capability exceeding 500 feet
These features make the MineMate a reliable choice for mine sealing, grouting, and underground concrete placement applications.
Continuous Mixing for Consistent Mine Seal Materials
The MineMate features a high shear continuous mixer that ensures concrete and grout materials are thoroughly blended before pumping. This continuous mixing process helps maintain uniform material quality, which is essential for effective underground mine seals.
A built-in screw conveyor with material bin indicator automatically charges the mixer, allowing continuous operation while reducing manual material handling.
Designed for Underground Mining Conditions
Working underground often requires equipment that can operate in restricted areas while still delivering strong performance. The MineMate features a low-profile design that allows operation in spaces with ceiling heights as low as 6 feet.
Its compact structure and high pumping capacity make it suitable for:
Underground mine sealing
Cement grouting
Underground shotcrete
Tunnel reinforcement
Void filling
Ground stabilization
Mine closure applications
The MineMate helps contractors efficiently deliver concrete materials to areas that are difficult to access with conventional equipment.
Flexible Power Options
The MineMate is available with power configurations designed for different underground environments:
50 HP Electric Motor with starter and disconnect
66 HP Kubota V3600 Water-Cooled Diesel Engine
These options provide flexibility for underground facilities with electrical power availability as well as remote mining operations.
Optional Features
To improve productivity and ease of operation, the MineMate offers several optional features:
Hydraulic receiving hopper agitator
Pendant remote control
Wireless remote control
Hydraulic pressure washer
These options allow operators to customize the machine according to project requirements.
