Antec Engineering - Pumps, Dust Extractors, Grouting Equipment and Other Components

Australian-owned Antec Engineering is a manufacturer and supplier to the mining, minerals processing and infrastructure industries. The company offers its services to clients across the globe, increasing productivity and performance while reducing costs considerably.

Antec manufactures and supplies mining products and components including refractory anchors, hexagonal mesh, ceramic fibre fixings and stainless-steel reinforcing fibres, paddle and pan mixers and dust extractor machines. The company also offers a range of market-leading gunning, pumping and grouting equipment, stud welding equipment and supplies as well as a full range of passive fire-proofing products, cable management trays, and cable and pipe sealing systems.

With extensive experience of working with major mining clients in Australia and beyond, Antec possesses a firm grasp of the issues and regulations affecting the industry. This understanding underpins the company's product selection process and ensures all items meet with occupational health and safety (OHS) standards.

Customised concrete and gunite pumping equipment

The Reed LOHE guncrete gunite machine, offered by Antec, provides steady material flow. The result is hydration and smooth placement, with adjustable settings allowing the user to regulate material output without reducing quality.

An electric motor powers the machine's rotating material feed bowl, while an air compressor is required to pass material from the feed-bowl to the nozzle (sold separately).

As with all of Antec's equipment, the LOHE guncrete gunite machine can be customised to ensure it is mine-spec ready. However, as standard the LOHE's features include:

• A continuous feed hopper with bag breaker
• Two-blade or five-blade blade agitators
• Direct drive 5hp, three-phase cycle electric motor to power feed bowl
• 50Hz or 60Hz cycles
• 220V, 230V, 360V, 440V, 460V, 575V and others available
• Optional hopper safety hood
• Optional ultra light non-stock rotary feed wheel

Shotcrete machines for mining applications

Antec's quality-range of mine-ready shotcrete machines can pump and spray most pre-blended cementitious construction materials for a range of applications. The company stocks the world's leading brands to give clients the most reliable products for heavy usage on mining projects.

As exclusive distributors of Clever & Co SBS shotcrete machines in Australia and New Zealand, Antec's range of pumps is among the best on the market. Perfect for use in harsh mining conditions, the Clever & Co range guarantees uniform material flow, virtually dust-free processing and high performance.

Dry gunning equipment

Reed gunite pumps are stocked by Antec. These pumps are built to last, offering long-lasting life-spans and unbeatable performance at your mine site.

The Reed range is designed for a variety of applications including refractory, tunnels, concrete repair, excavations, slope stabilisation, pools, mines, retaining walls and much more.

Dust extractors for mining operations

Dust management has become crucial to all mining projects with the introduction of increased health and safety measures. With that in mind, Antec has developed a range of dust extractors, designed to fit over the top of an open hopper, where it collects fine cement and dust particles.

Antec's extractors are unique because the dust hood attachment does not obstruct the view into the hopper, resulting in less wastage due to overfilling and less stoppages caused by a lack of visibility.
