UNDERGROUND MINING

Tough Tools for a Tough Job.

Underground mining is a job that redefines harsh. Which is why you need a tool that redefines tough.

Unlike standard OEM equipment, Pierce scaling fronts are purpose-built to withstand the rigors of underground mining. And because no two mines are the same, each front is engineered and configured to fit your specific application and environment. All while ensuring a safer work area for those inside and
outside the machine.

Since Pierce fronts are uniquely designed for underground mining, you can expect them to stand up much better to wear and tear. Which means reduced maintenance costs and greater longevity compared to standard factory digging booms.

READY TO REPORT FOR EXTREME DUTY.

Pierce scaling fronts go where most loaders and excavators fear to tread. Now you can efficiently remove loose and fractured rock from mine walls, backs, and faces, while giving your operator greater control. That adds up to a safer workplace, plus a higher quality vault. Our scaling fronts also come equipped with essential guarding to protect operator and machine alike.

This rugged equipment is purpose-built for extreme-duty. The straight main boom optimizes the working range, allowing operators to get to hard-to-reach spots. And options such as a telescopic stick, hydraulically tilting cab and dust suppression system allow you to configure a scaling machine that suits both your application and your operating staff.
