This event will bring together global and local companies to showcase the latest in mining technology and innovation.
Mining Indonesia serves as a vital platform for industry experts worldwide to forge connections and explore new business opportunities. Renos Winartha, PROK’s Country Manager for Indonesia, expressed his enthusiasm for this year’s event, sharing,
“After our success at Mining Indonesia in 2023, I look forward to connecting with attendees at the show, sharing industry insights, and highlighting PROK’s exciting product innovations that can support customers in the region.”
PROK’s Continued Success in Indonesia
For decades, PROK has been a leading supplier of conveyor equipment and services in Indonesia. 2023 was a landmark year for the company, marking significant growth and success in the region. By its local expertise with a global service approach, PROK has provided innovative solutions that have substantially enhanced the conveyor operations of its key customers.
Last year, PROK announced the opening of its Surabaya facility, designed to offer specialised conveyor pulley refurbishment services to mining companies across Southeast Asia. PROK also manufactured two 48 Metric Tonne Gearless Drive pulleys for a major client’s overland conveyor system in Indonesia—the largest and heaviest ever manufactured for the region.
Wade Guelfi, General Manager of PROK WA & SEA, shared,
“Establishing PT PROK in the Indonesian market has been an incredible journey. From opening our new facility in Surabaya to manufacturing the largest pulleys ever supplied to the region, we’ve made significant steps. I look forward to sharing industry insights with attendees and exploring new opportunities at the event.”
Innovation at Work: Showcasing PROK’s Groundbreaking Solutions
In 2023, PROK introduced its new tagline, “Innovation at work.” representing its commitment to customer success and forward-thinking approach to conveyor technology.
This is exemplified by the success of PROK HDPE, a world-first composite roller that incorporates visual wear indicator technology. A major mining client in Indonesia has successfully integrated over 4000 PROK HDPE rollers into their conveyor systems, significantly improving operational efficiency.
The client remarked,
“PROK HDPE’s lightweight properties make them not only easy to handle but also streamline the workflow for our roller crew. The ease of installation and maintenance has also added to the overall efficiency of our operations.”
Indonesia, as the world’s largest producer of nickel and a significant producer of other essential metals for renewable energy, plays a critical role in the global transition to a sustainable future. Innovative conveyor components like those offered by PROK are essential in reducing carbon footprints, energy consumption, and waste in mining operations.
At Mining Indonesia 2024, visitors will have the opportunity to experience PROK’s cuttingedge solutions firsthand. Products like the PROK HDPE, which offer a lightweight alternative to traditional steel rollers, will be on display. These innovations not only support environmental, social, and governance (ESG) targets but also lower operational costs and enhance the efficiency and reliability of conveyor systems.
Renos Winartha added, “PROK HDPE composite rollers are a lightweight alternative to traditional steel rollers, which significantly reduces the energy required to drive the conveyor system. Visitors at our booth can see and feel for themselves the difference.”
