Project overview

DRAGLINE PROPEL STABILIZER ARMS

ClientsVarious Marion & Bucyrus Draglines

MEA specializes in the design and manufacture of Dragline Propel Stabilizer Arms, critical components that help maintain the stability and alignment of draglines during operation. These stabilizer arms are essential for evenly distributing the forces exerted on the dragline, ensuring smooth and efficient operation while minimizing wear and tear on the machinery.

MEA has extensive experience in designing and building propel stabilizer arms for all models of draglines, having worked closely with major mining operations like BMA and Anglo American’s QLD draglines. We carefully consider the stresses and heavy loads that these components must endure, and our design process focuses on creating units that can handle these demands without compromise.

To ensure maximum strength and durability, we thermal stress-relieve our stabilizer arms, followed by precise final machining of the bores. The phosphor bronze bushings are then shrink-fitted and scotch-keyed, ensuring a secure and long-lasting fit. Our attention to detail in both design and manufacturing guarantees that MEA’s dragline propel stabilizer arms will perform reliably in the toughest environments, contributing to the operational efficiency and longevity of dragline equipment.
