Solving problems through collaboration
At Progress Mining, we believe the best results come from working with our customers to understand their specific site challenges and deliver practical, effective solutions.
Recently, we partnered closely with a trusted reseller and a lithium mine in Western Australia to address a persistent issue: track shoes breaking on a Hitachi© EX2600 due to heavy rock impact.
Through on-site insights and close collaboration, our team developed a heavy-duty track shoe design tailored to the application — with a smart balance of innovation and compatibility:
- Maintains original external geometry and fit-up dimensions, ensuring seamless installation on the EX2600
- Increased section thickness in key high-stress areas to resist impact damage from rocks — without affecting overall system performance
The new design has now been successfully installed and is ready to prove its value in the field.
