In a move that marks a significant technological advancement in the mining industry, TLT-Turbo Africa has announced the successful implementation of a major ventilation project within the Platinum Belt of South Africa. Committed to innovative solutions and the promotion of sustainable practices, TLT-Turbo Africa's latest project emphasises its role as a leader in mining equipment provision.

The ambitious project, completed in two phases, includes installing and commissioning bespoke bifurcated surface fan stations, each with a dual stage 220kw fan system. Designed to operate continuously, these fans address the high pressure and efficiency demands characteristic of underground mining operations.  

The use of TLT-Turbo Africa's standardised, modular A&B Fan range highlights a shift towards streamlined manufacturing processes that significantly reduce lead times and promote local availability of spare parts, thus ensuring swift maintenance and repairs.

"Our ventilation solutions are engineered to ensure the safety, health, and wellness of mining personnel while facilitating better underground conditions and ease of maintenance," says Katlego Nchabeleng, Sales Engineer at TLT-Turbo Africa. "These installations epitomise our approach to delivering quality and sustainable advancements in mine ventilation."

This project is a testament to TLT-Turbo Africa's resurgence in the South African mining sector, showcasing their capability to overcome industry challenges and position themselves at the forefront of mining technology development.

With eco-design at the heart of their operation, TLT-Turbo Africa's fans exemplify their alignment with global environmental standards, focusing on energy-efficient solutions that contribute to the broader environmental imperatives of the mining industry.

The company's ongoing projects include a notable initiative in the DRC and a forthcoming installation of Modular Mine fans in South Africa, reinforcing their commitment to innovation and excellence in the mining sector.
