BELAZ MINING
Founded in 1948, Belarus-based Belaz Mining Equipment has continually strived to reach new heights within the market, transforming themselves from small-time peat transportation and agitator machinery producers, into a 14,000 strong workforce to be reckoned with.
With a decade of experience under their belts, Belaz
began production of increasingly heavy-duty mining
machinery, including dump trucks, in 1958, before
embarking on their campaign of extremely specialist vehicle
production in the 1990’s. This legacy, resulting in the creation of
a number of metallurgical and road construction machines has
set Belaz in good stead for an even more successful future and has
provided a suitably sturdy platform for the launch of an extremely
exciting development in 2015.
Not willing to be pigeonholed into just the mining sector, Belaz
have expanded their product base, branching out into lucrative market
areas including construction, road building, mine servicing, freight
rolling stock, lifting/conveying and consumer goods. By opening
themselves up to a program of diversification, Belaz have secured
their place as one of the foremost suppliers of specialist vehicles and
equipment, with a range of over 75 products.
With six production facilities in Belarus, Belaz are able to cater
to the high demand for their products, in fact, they are currently
producing seven vehicles per working day, including extra-high
payload capacity mining dump trucks, an impressive feat given that
the production process is hybrid of both automated and manual
processes. The work, however, does not stop once the unit is
completed. Undergoing a rigorous testing procedure, the vehicles,
With six production facilities in Belarus, Belaz are able to cater to the high demand for their products, in fact, they are currently producing seven vehicles per working day, including extra-high payload capacity mining dump trucks, an impressive feat given that the production process is hybrid of both automated and manual processes.
First four Belaz dump trucks with 120T payload capacity are being re-launched by the end of this year at one of the major coal mines in India. OJSC Belaz along with its Indian Dealer and Joint Venture partner ‘JV Gokal Group of companies’ has decided to expand its footprint in the Indian Mining Industry over a period of next 3 years.
To provide professional after sales support, ‘Belaz-Enrika Mining Equipment Services Pvt. Ltd’, a Joint Venture company between ‘OJSC
Belaz and ‘Enrika Trades & Services Pvt. Ltd.’ (a JV Gokal Group Co.), was formed to set up a major Repair-Maintenance Centre.
This facility is created to serve Belaz customers Pan India, which will have a large inventory of critical spares, components and consumables for heavy duty dumpers and other mining equipment of Belaz range in addition to well experienced, dedicated and talented team of service engineers. This Joint Venture was signed on October
2010 during the official visit of the first deputy Prime Minister of Belarus, Mr. V.I. Semashko in India.
The company is confident that its Joint Venture will prove to be a formidable force in achieving the targets specially in reducing the operating costs of the End users, which in effect will stimulate the expansion of Belaz product range in India.
‘OJSC Belaz’ – world’s renowned manufacturer of heavy duty mining equipment, especially dump trucks of payload capacities (up to 500 Tones) has entered India.
