Mining & Minerals Processing Manufacturing
Rugged fabrication and precision machining for crushers, mills, pumps, and conveyor systems — routed in-house or through certified Canadian partners.

Overview
Mining and minerals processing demand components that survive abrasive media, thermal shock, and constant vibration. Pearson Manufacturing supports these programs with a hybrid fulfillment model — routing work to the best-fit path (in-house or via vetted Canadian partners) while keeping QA, documentation, and communication under one roof.
Quick Specs
| Workstream | Best For | Speed | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prototype & Repairs | One-offs, rebuild plans, legacy parts | Fast | Reverse engineering + quick-turn hardfacing |
| Production Wear Parts | Liners, chutes, guards, pulleys | Medium | Jigs/fixtures for repeatability; balanced cost |
| Rebuilds/Relines | Crusher/mill components, pumps | Medium | Overlay selection + staged inspections |
| Spares & Retrofits | Shafts, hubs, adapters | Fast | Material certs + fit/runout checks |
Capabilities We Provide Access To
- Heavy-duty CNC turning & vertical turning (long shafts, large OD hubs)
- Horizontal/vertical boring for housings, bases, and valve bodies
- Wear plate cutting/forming, chute & frame fabrications
- Hardfacing overlays (MIG/flux-core), chromium carbide wear plate fit-up
- Precision drilling/tapping, bolt-circle layout, keyways & fits
- Sub-assembly: bearings, bushings, seals; torque specs & test fit
- Abrasive blasting, industrial coatings, and preservation packaging
- NDT (UT/MT/PT), hardness mapping, and dimensional inspection
DFM & Wear Tips
- Specify wear allowance and target hardness (HRC/HBW) for overlays/liners; note CTQ surfaces separately.
- Standardize fasteners and bolt circles across families to reduce downtime and inventory.
- Use replaceable liner kits (segmenting) instead of monolithic plates to simplify swaps.
- Call out weld-bead keep-outs and liner clearances; avoid coating on machined fits/threads.
- Prefer generous radii in high-wear flow paths to reduce turbulence and undercutting.
- Include handling points and lift lugs with required capacities in the model/drawing.
We’ll review your model/drawing, wear targets, and coating/NDT needs, then confirm achievable specs and the right routing (in-house or partner) before kickoff.
Why Partner with Pearson?
- Hybrid routing: in-house builds or certified Canadian partners under one QA umbrella
- Wear-focused material and overlay options tuned to your abrasion/impact profile
- Faster changeouts with standardized hardware and segmented liner strategies

- Consolidated logistics, documentation, and on-time delivery
Equipment Used In-House or By Our Partners
- Long-bed CNC lathes and vertical turning lathes (VTLs)
- Horizontal/vertical boring mills and large VMCs
- Plate rolls, press brakes, positioners, and manipulators
- Hardfacing stations and robotic welding cells
- Waterjet/plasma/laser cutting and blast booths
- CMMs, portable arms, and hardness testers
Typical Mining Applications
- Jaw/cone crusher wear plates, cheek plates, and backing plates
- Mill shell liners, trunnions, lifters, pulp lifter grates, and end plates
- Slurry pump casings, volutes, and impeller hubs
- Conveyor pulley drums, lagging/backing, and shaft ends
- Wear-resistant valve/gate bodies and seats
- Chutes, hoppers, transfer points, and skirting systems
Mining FAQs
Do you machine AR and HARDOX-grade steels?
Yes. We routinely process AR400/500 and HARDOX grades, and can recommend overlays or liner kits based on your wear profile.
Can you refurbish or reline worn components?
Absolutely. We can build a rebuild plan, hardface or reline, and restore fits with inspection data to verify.
What size/weight can you handle?
We support large/long components via in-house and partner capacity. Share overall envelope and weight to select the right routing.
Which overlays and liners do you support?
Chromium carbide overlays (CCO), hardfacing wires, ceramic tiles, UHMW/HDPE liners, and manganese steels — chosen to match abrasion/impact conditions.
How should I scope my RFQ?
Include CAD + PDF with weld symbols/GD&T, materials, wear targets (hardness/overlay), coating, NDT, sizes/weights, and schedule. Start your mining quote — include materials, wear targets, overlay/liner choices, NDT, sizes/weights, and schedule.
Ready for Precision Mining Parts?
Send your drawings, specs, or worn components — we’ll route to the right process path and return a fast, rugged rebuild or production plan.
