MORGAN Engineering is committed to innovation and has solidified its reputation as one of the most extensive and state-of-the-art engineering facilities in the Hunter Valley.
The company prides itself on retaining a team of highly skilled machinists, fitters, welders, draftsmen, mechanical engineers and line borers who can deliver efficient, reliable solutions and industry best practice for customers utilizing the latest technology and their extensive experience in the industry.
Service exchange components
Morgan Engineering carries a comprehensive range of service exchange components to suit Caterpillar and other various OEM earthmoving equipment.
This means that mining customers can avoid replacing and stocking expensive new parts, such as the steering components, and instead access Morgan’s extensive stock of cost effective service exchange components.
Morgan Engineering has implemented an innovative, state-of-the-art, process to reclaim and re-machine the tapered bores of steering components in-house and on-site anywhere in Australia.
Typically, these components would be run to the OEM guide lines, once guide lines have been exceeded components would then be replaced with new.
Morgan Engineering’s service exchange and on-site repair option is around 60pc less than a new replacement part and the cost savings by eliminating the downtime on a machine are significantly greater again.
Morgan Engineering developed this process in order to deliver service exchange parts that either met or exceeded OEM specifications.
In order to provide their customers a guarantee of this level of quality, they engaged an external certification provider to certify the entire reclaim and re-machine process.
This certification applies to chassis steering boxes, steering Y-links and steering arm components, reassuring the customers’ expectations of quality repairs.
This innovative solution is just one of the ways Morgan Engineering is leading the industry in improving customer service, reducing cost and providing solutions for their mining customers.
CNC milling and turning
Morgan Engineering also has a high level of CNC milling and turning capabilities with state-of-the-art equipment, tools, processes and procedures.
The company has recently installed and commissioned a Soraluce FP6000 CNC machine to significantly extend its capabilities by increasing capacity and reducing turnaround time.
The Soraluce FP6000 is a multi-purpose milling and boring machine with a modular design, offering remarkable versatility and enabling the machine to be adapted to customer requirements – resulting in high productivity, high accuracy and improved customer satisfaction.
The new CNC travelling column milling machine has a 6m travel and a 100t table loading capacity to handle even the largest jobs.
Two new Mazak CNC machines add to the stable of high precision machining equipment.
The Integrex i400 x 2500 is a five-axis, multi-tasking machine capable of turning and milling the most intricate components in multiple planes.
Line boring and on-site machining
Morgan Engineering also provides specialised field services across Australia.
All its field service trucks are fully equipped and fitted out with dual boring systems capable of welding two bores and then machining two bores simultaneously.
This allows a quick turnaround for repairable items, and combined with its extensive range of service exchange components, Morgan’s has become a one-stop-shop for mining clients because once its team are in the field, they can turn the job around from start to finish in a matter of hours in most cases.
The company also has the capacity to carry out all facets of onsite machining from three-axis milling, circular milling, keyway milling, journal turning, flange facing, drilling and tapping.
Portable machines carry out machine shop operations in the field, without the need to remove the plant or equipment from the site (which typically costs the client in extended equipment downtime, higher labour expenses and lost production).
With a think-outside-the-square approach, Morgan Engineering can also offer customised tooling and jigs to get the job done where others may think it is not possible.
With this refreshing approach, customers enjoy increased productivity as the need to disassemble large pieces of equipment and transport off-site is often eliminated.
This results in a faster return of the equipment back to production.
Morgan Engineering’s ability to provide safe, reliable and bespoke machining solutions in restricted access applications ensures that its clients see the advantages of using a system that has been developed and proven to encompass industry best practice.
Vision and values
Morgan Engineering is driven by its key core values and that is what separates it from the competition.
The company values customer service with the slogan ‘we make it happen’, reflecting the commitment to jump through any hoop to ensure the client is 100pc satisfied with the quality of their products and service.
The slogan ‘we think outside the square’ is an example of how innovation also underpins every development within the company, as well as Morgan Engineering’s guarantee to work to achieve the best possible tailor-made solution for each clients’ needs.
As a value-driven, family-owned, business with a corporate structure, Morgan Engineering is big enough to matter but small enough to care.
