Macmahon offers its surface and underground clients a full range of mechanical engineering services, ranging from design, procurement, manufacturing, commissioning and maintenance. Macmahon hands over a practical asset that can be easily maintained with the lowest operating costs.Ore Pass Replacement and Rehabilitation
Macmahon repairs ore passes and bins for underground mines. With complete 3D modelling capability, our drawing uses the latest versions of Inventor, Solid Edge, AutoCAD and Microstation drafting software. Our design engineers use SpaceGass for structural analysis and ANSYS for Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Our design office operates with a quality management system that complies with AS/ NZS ISO 9001:2008.Underground Pumping and Infrastructure Construction
Our services range from the specialised Annular Pressure Exchange pumping system (APEXS) and ventilation controls through to underground piping reticulation, ore-pass linings and general underground services. Macmahon’s design office operates with a quality management system that complies with the requirements of AS/NZS ISO 9001:2008.
Our Expertise
Backed by years of experience in the resources sector
Backed by years of experience in the resources sector, Macmahon’s engineering team can deliver underground pumping and general infrastructure design, and supply and install projects. With the ability to undertake design and fabrication through our Lonsdale workshop, as well as completing on-site construction, Macmahon delivers a complete engineering, procurement and construction offering from design to completion, all the way to maintenance.
It will be overwhelming at first, but in the end, it will be worth it. You'll learn lots of new things that will help you outside of work too. You’ll make new friends, develop new skills and get paid to work. I wouldn't change what I do for the world.
