TOWHAUL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT: INSPIRED BY OUR CUSTOMERS

In the ever-evolving world of mining, adaptability is key. Each mine presents its own set of challenges and opportunities, shaped by its unique geological makeup, environmental conditions, and operational goals. At TowHaul, we recognize that a one-size-fits-all approach is not sufficient. That’s why our team of forward-thinking engineers works in close collaboration with each client, crafting TowHaul equipment that is not just functional but finely tuned to the specific demands of the site it will serve. We harness the power of customer feedback, allowing it to guide our design process, ensuring that our modifications and enhancements directly address the real-world needs of the miners and the industry at large.

PRE-SALE ENGINEERING:
A Proactive Approach

The dedicated TowHaul pre-sales engineer is involved in the process from the very beginning to create the TowHaul machine that will work for you. We work to minimize capital outlay and maximize compatibility with your existing fleet. Our extensive pre-sales analysis includes utilizing OEM performance charts to analyze the truck/trailer combination, reviewing site conditions and considering equipment loading profiles and trucks to be towed.
