Case Study: a large open pit gold mine achieves a 75% reduction in tyre spend with MaxMine

Large Open Pit Gold Mine - Customer Case Study

The customer, a large open pit gold mine, faced a challenge with very low tyre life on its fleet of 180 and 220 tonne trucks, which caused operational costs and downtime to soar. To address this, they partnered with MaxMine to implement its performance metrics and tools for managing tyre life.

MaxMine’s solution involved installing wall boards to display operator performance data, such as cornering speeds, in a league table to foster healthy competition and visibility. This was supported by step-by-step coaching to drive behavioral change. By improving operator conformance, MaxMine helped the mine achieve a 75% decrease in tyre spend.
