Mining projects require dependable equipment that can handle demanding underground conditions while providing consistent concrete and grout placement. The MineMate is an advanced continuous mixer pump for mining projects, designed to combine concrete mixing and pumping in a single efficient system.
Built for underground mine seals, grouting, shotcrete, and concrete placement applications, the MineMate provides reliable performance where ready-mix concrete is not a practical option. Its compact design, powerful pumping system, and continuous mixing technology make it ideal for challenging mining environments.
Efficient Continuous Mixer Pump for Mining Projects
The MineMate is designed as a labor-saving solution that combines Blastcrete's X-10 ultra high-pressure swing tube piston pump with a high shear continuous mixer. This integrated design allows operators to mix and pump concrete materials directly at the project site.
By combining these functions into one machine, the MineMate helps mining contractors:
Reduce equipment requirements
Improve material handling efficiency
Increase productivity
Maintain consistent concrete quality
Simplify underground operations
Designed for Underground Mining Applications
Mining environments often require equipment that can operate in confined spaces while delivering strong performance. The MineMate is designed for applications including:
Underground mine seals
Mining grouting projects
Underground shotcrete installation
Tunnel construction
Ground stabilization
Mine support applications
Concrete repair
Void filling
The system provides reliable material delivery for projects where transporting ready-mix concrete is difficult or unavailable.
High-Performance Pumping Capabilities
The MineMate delivers powerful pumping performance for demanding underground applications. Its ultra high-pressure piston pump allows concrete and grout materials to be transported over long distances.
Key specifications 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 suitable for complex underground construction and mining support projects.
Advanced Continuous Mixing Technology
The integrated high shear continuous mixer provides consistent material preparation before pumping. This helps ensure proper blending and reliable concrete performance throughout the project.
The MineMate also includes a screw conveyor with material bin indicator for charging the continuous mixer. This reduces manual loading requirements and supports continuous operation during demanding mining projects.
Compact Design for Mining Environments
Space limitations are common in underground mining operations. The MineMate features a low-profile design that allows operation in areas with ceiling heights as low as 6 feet.
This compact configuration makes the machine suitable for:
Underground mines
Tunnels
Restricted-access work areas
Remote mining locations
Underground construction sites
Despite its compact size, the MineMate provides the power required for long-distance concrete pumping.
Flexible Power Options
The MineMate is available with multiple power configurations to meet different mining project requirements:
50 HP Electric Motor with starter and disconnect
66 HP Kubota V3600 Water-Cooled Diesel Engine
These options allow contractors to select the ideal setup for both permanent underground facilities and remote operations.
Optional Features
The MineMate can be customized with additional features to improve productivity and operator convenience:
Hydraulic receiving hopper agitator
Pendant remote control
Wireless remote control
Hydraulic pressure washer
These options support easier operation, maintenance, and improved job site performance.
