Latest company case about Australian Port Operator Reduces Cost per Ton Handled

Client:

Port of Brisbane Stevedoring (Australia)

Challenge:

In the high-impact environment of continuous iron ore and coal handling, previous supplier's teeth posed fracture risks and wore unevenly, leading to gradually declining grab efficiency.

Solution:

Switched to our "Port Master" series bucket teeth (Material: ZG30Cr5MnSiMo). Enhanced root and sidewall protection with a bio-mimetic wear profile design to maintain efficient grabbing shape throughout the entire service life.

Data & Results:

  • Reliability: Achieved zero unexpected fractures over 18 months of service.

  • Wear Uniformity: Improved wear uniformity by 70%, maintaining effective grabbing force.

  • Economy: Reduced wear cost per ton of material handled by 22%. The client has expanded application to all 12 large grab cranes at the terminal.
