StemSafe’s extensive range of stemming trucks, services and equipment is growing.
We pride ourselves on suppling an all-in-one service that is a safer and smarter for the mining, quarrying and construction blasting sectors. Which is why we’re thrilled to announce that our team are currently working on four exciting new projects – all industry firsts, and exclusive to StemSafe.
Stay tuned for more details about these groundbreaking stemming solutions.
PROJECT 1
DIPSAFE (SMU – STEMSAFE MEASURING UNIT)
24 hour blast hole measuring and reporting solution
Apparatus mounted on light vehicle for shot-preparation and blast crew support and transportation
Blast crew able to continue explosive loading whilst next blast pattern is being prepared
Depth of hole, water and mud wall detection
Data recorded can be downloaded onto USB for site engineers
Retrieval cable marked incrementally to visually double check results
Project 2
DUAL PURPOSE TRUCK
Aggregate stemming with dust suppression and water truck capability
Cost saving multi-purpose equipment increasing utilisation and major breakdown contingency
Dust Suppression system that reduces ambient respirable dust concentrations in the workplace
Ability to load stemming material in gear and low idle increasing production rates and turn around times
Rear mounted water sprays – to water down blast patterns and roads for reducing dust
Water Cannon and High Pressure Water Pump fitted for wash down of equipment and drill fill options
Project 3
BLASTING PREPARATION CREW
Drive, operate and maintain Heavy Rigid Stemming Trucks and associated equipment including Front End Loaders and Light Vehicles
Maintenance of equipment includes cleaning, greasing and mechanical repairs to trucks and equipment
Ability to understand charge and backfill data on blast patterns to the plan
Measuring blast holes and recording results
Assist blast crews with shot preparation and Assistant Shot-firer duties
Blast guard duties
Project 4
GEL STEMMING
Distruptive Gel Stemming Technology
Gel stemming and bulk water truck capabilities
Eliminates dust hazards during the gel stemming process
Reduces stemming material required
Potential stemming height reductions
Reduces caprock and oversize issues
