In the highly competitive heavy mining sector, payload efficiency and equipment durability directly dictate operational profitability. For Welshpool, Western Australia-based Schlam, engineering high-performance mining assets is a core specialty. Known as an industry innovator, Schlam designs and manufactures custom dump truck bodies (such as the Hercules) and heavy excavator buckets engineered to withstand extreme on-site abuse.
Operating in Australia's demanding mining landscapes, Schlam’s equipment must survive continuous, highly abrasive impacts from iron ore, coal, and overburden. To maximize payload potential and extend service life, Schlam must roll ultra-hard, wear-resistant steel alloys into complex, high-precision geometries. Achieving these results while maintaining quick delivery timelines requires structural bending technology of the highest caliber.
A 15-Year Partnership Fueled by Localized Support
Schlam’s investment in the MCB R30 is the continuation of a highly successful relationship with Davi that began in 2010. Over the past 15 years, Davi has supplied numerous plate rolls to support Schlam’s growth. This long-term operational continuity is secured through the prompt, on-the-ground technical assistance of Ottotech Services, Davi’s trusted regional partner in Australia, working in perfect synergy with Davi’s Italian headquarters.
