Proof Engineering will reveal a newly designed tamper proof spindle for Ex Sockets alongside its latest range of Orion and Crater branded Ex glands at Electra Mining 2018.

Part of the Hudaco group of companies, Proof Engineering leads the market in the design and manufacture of innovative flameproof, explosion proof and non-flameproof plugs, sockets, adaptors and cable couplers. Its extensive product offering is focused on the mining and tunneling industries.

Donovan Marks, Director at Proof Engineering, says that the innovative tamper proof spindle, developed by Proof Engineering in close collaboration with an end-user, is a must-see on their stand. Thanks to its innovative design, the plug can only be removed once the circuit has been isolated, contributing to the safety of underground mine personnel.

“Visitors to our stand will also have the opportunity to view our electrical cable connectors (under the Proof brand), lighting systems (under the Azolite brand) and our FLP gland range (under the AMPgland brand),” says Marks.

This is not the first year that Proof Engineering has participated at Electra Mining and Marks says that while it is always difficult to gauge success in numbers from shows, they definitely achieved the objectives they set themselves at previous Electra Mining shows.

“With our brands strongly focused on southern Africa’s mining industry, it is important to maintain exposure in the market place and Electra Mining does that for us. This mining exhibition also enables us to show off the latest developments and additions to our product ranges. We certainly always aim to grow our customer base at these shows but also most importantly, we regard Electra Mining as an ideal opportunity to network with our existing customers.” 

Proof Engineering will be exhibiting alongside sister company, Powermite, on stand F16: Hall 6. Powermite is a specialist supplier of electrical and mechanical equipment for moving machinery in the southern African region. Visitors to the stand will have the opportunity of winning great prizes in a lucky draw competition, complements of the two companies.
