Mining & Bulk Material Handling

Oleo’s robust hydraulic buffers are the ideal energy absorption safeguard for heavy machinery in this industry

In the high-stakes world of bulk material handling, equipment failure is not an option. Oleo’s gas-hydraulic buffers deliver industry-leading energy absorption that minimises deceleration spikes. Whether managing routine damping or emergency collisions, our technology protects your conveyors, stackers, and reclaimers from unnecessary stress. The result? Less mechanical downtime, extended equipment life, and a safer environment for your workforce.

The particle-laden air that the buffers must work in requires robust shielding so that they can operate correctly at a moment’s notice and repeatedly. All Oleo buffer ranges can be fitted with dust-protective bellows to allow the buffers to repeatedly stroke without particles getting inside the unit and this extends its lifetime.
