Maximise bulldozer efficiency with ITM Mining
Pin and bush turns enhanced by trust ITM® technology
In the tough world of mining, where every machine hour counts, maintaining your equipment’s performance is key. Large bulldozers like the Caterpillar D10/D11, Liebherr PR776/PR766, and Komatsu D375/D475 are the workhorses of the industry, and their efficiency depends heavily on the condition of their undercarriage systems, particularly the oil-lubricated track chains.
ITM Mining is at the forefront of undercarriage solutions, offering expert Pin and Bush turn services that extend the life of your bulldozer’s track chains. This crucial maintenance procedure involves rotating the pins and bushes 180 degrees to expose unworn surfaces, redistributing wear and extending the lifespan of these vital components. At our Welshpool WA and Yatala QLD service centres, we elevate this process with our cutting-edge TRUST ITM® smart sensor technology.
TRUST ITM® is a revolutionary system that embeds wireless sensors within each track pin to monitor real-time operating conditions. This technology gathers critical data on temperature and wear, helping to optimise maintenance schedules and prevent costly downtime. By integrating TRUST ITM® with our Pin and Bush turn services, we ensure your equipment runs at peak efficiency, minimizing operational costs and maximizing productivity.
Why is a Pin and Bush Turn essential?
With ITM’s Pin and Bush turns, you get more mileage from your track chains. Our service ensures even wear distribution, effectively doubling the lifespan of pins and bushes, saving you from premature replacements. Preventing unnecessary wear and tear means fewer replacements and lower maintenance costs.
Scheduled Pin and Bush turns keep your tracks aligned and tensioned, improving traction and reducing slippage. Coupled with TRUST ITM® real-time data insights, you’ll experience smoother operations and less impact on other undercarriage components.
TRUST ITM® alerts you to potential issues before they become critical, allowing for proactive maintenance. This reduces unexpected breakdowns and keeps your bulldozers working longer, increasing operational uptime. Every decision is backed by data. Our system provides actionable insights that help you plan maintenance more effectively, ensuring your fleet is always ready for the next big job.
Don’t let worn track chains slow you down. Partner with ITM Mining for Pin and Bush turn services supported by the advanced TRUST ITM® technology. Keep your machines running stronger, longer, and more efficiently than ever.
