Draglines and shovels
CMP Engineers provides specialist engineering services for draglines and shovels operating in large scale mining environments. Our team has extensive experience working with some of the largest mobile mining equipment in Australia and understands the structural, mechanical and operational challenges these machines face.
We support owners and operators through design, assessment, upgrade and investigation activities that improve safety, reliability and long term performance.
Dragline and shovel engineering services
Design and upgrade engineering
We design and engineer upgrades for draglines and shovels, including access systems, safety improvements, structural modifications and mechanical enhancements.
Structural and mechanical assessment
CMP Engineers performs detailed assessment of major structural and mechanical components, including frames, booms, masts, tubs, machinery houses and attachments.
Finite Element Analysis and simulation
We apply advanced simulation to assess stress, fatigue and dynamic behaviour under realistic loading conditions, supporting safe operation and life extension decisions.
Inspection and condition assessment
Our engineers conduct site inspections to identify cracking, wear, deformation and deterioration, supported by measurement, monitoring and data analysis where required.
Access systems and safety upgrades
We deliver engineered access system upgrades for draglines and shovels, improving safety for operation, inspection and maintenance activities.
Failure and incident investigation
CMP Engineers investigates failures and incidents involving draglines and shovels, providing independent root cause analysis and practical recommendations.
