An alternative to new components, local service exchange programs, and repair and return service, the Reman Program is an exchange-related sales transaction whereby the customer is required to return a used core to the Customer Center in exchange for a remanufactured component.
The Reman Program can play a key role in making machine lifecycle costs competitive. The program offers customers a lower cost option to purchasing new components, while maintaining the highest availability and reliability.
Face Drilling and Battery with Pierre Lavictoire & Andre Barriault
We brought together two product experts from Canada, Pierre Lavictoire for underground drilling and Andre Barriault for electrification, to discuss the changes in technology over the past few years that move the mining industry forward. Pierre covers automation features, internal hosing, and upgrades that make Boomer M20 highly productive. Then Andre explains the battery option for face drill rigs, battery conversion and BaaS (Battery-as-a-Service), along with other service products and features that provide less risk with more benefits.
