Despite the difficulties that our company faced during the war, we not only continue to work to meet internal needs, but also conclude new large-scale contracts with external customers.

 Machine production will last 16 months, and the start of assembly is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2024.

"Such events once again confirm that we have every reason to be proud of our products, and victory in such tenders testifies customer's trust and recognition of our professionalism.

It will ensure fast and safe personnel, cargo and mine cars movement from a depth of up to 927 meters at a speed of up to 8.5 meters per second. To handle such loads from such a depth, 4 hoisting ropes and 2 balancing ropes are used in the machine. This is an important update for Pokrovske mine management as part of their minefield development plan.

"We are proud of our competences in the development, design and manufacture of such complex equipment.
