Quarry Plant & Material Handling Maintenance
In the quarrying and material handling sector, throughput is everything. Whether you are producing road base, aggregates, or sand, a stopped belt or a jammed crusher means you aren’t loading trucks.
Specialised Crusher Services (SCS) brings mining-grade reliability to the quarry and construction materials industry. We apply the same rigorous maintenance strategies used in Tier 1 Gold and Copper mines to your fixed plant, ensuring your equipment runs harder and lasts longer.

Mining Standards for the Quarry Sector
You don’t need to be a massive mine to benefit from professional asset management. We operate under a Triple ISO Certification framework, ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 45001 (Safety), and ISO 14001 (Environment).
The SCS Advantage:
- Safety & Compliance: We bring the strict “Zero Harm” safety culture required by global miners to your local site.
- Technical Depth: Our fitters and boilermakers are experts on the heavy machinery that generalist mechanics can’t handle.
- Speed: We understand that quarries run lean. We utilise our Orange Workshop to fabricate repairs rapidly, minimising your downtime.
Equipment Capabilities
We provide end-to-end support for the entire material handling circuit, from the primary jaw to the product stockpiles.
- Crushing Circuits: Maintenance and relines for Gyratory Crushers, Jaw Crushers, and Cone Crushers (HSI/VSI). We optimise closed-side settings (CSS) to ensure you are meeting product spec and shape requirements.
- Screening Plants: Deck replacements, cross-member repairs, and exciter gearbox change-outs to keep your screening efficiency high.
- Conveyor Systems: Complete conveyor maintenance services, including drum lagging, roller replacements, and belt splicing.
Shutdowns & Project Installation
Whether it’s a routine liner change or a Brownfield upgrade to increase plant capacity, SCS manages the project execution.
We provide planned shutdown crews to execute work safely and efficiently, ensuring your plant is back online for the first shift. For larger upgrades, our Construction Teams handle the installation of new conveyors, chutes, and processing units, integrating them seamlessly into your existing circuit.
The SCS Repair Standard
ISO Compliance

Specialised Tooling
Hydraulic nuts, lifting jigs, and induction heaters owned in-house to execute shutdown work safely and efficiently.
Workshop Support
Components beyond site repair are rebuilt at our Orange NSW fabrication facility with full machining capability.
OEM Tolerance Checks
Clearances (backlash, root clearance, end float) are measured during assembly to ensure long-term reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
We are committed to operating to internationally recognised standards for safety, environmental responsibility, and quality. Through certified ISO 45001, ISO 14001, and ISO 9001 management systems, we prioritise the safety of our people, minimise environmental impact, and consistently deliver reliable, high-quality outcomes for our clients.
Why hire a mining contractor for a quarry?
Hiring a specialist mining contractor like SCS ensures your equipment is maintained to the highest possible standard. We bring Tier 1 safety systems (ISO 45001) and advanced diagnostic skills that generalist contractors often lack, resulting in higher reliability and longer asset life.
Do you maintain Primary Gyratory and Jaw crushers?
Can you fabricate parts for older plant equipment?
Yes. Many quarries operate older equipment where OEM parts are hard to source. Our Orange Workshop can reverse-engineer and fabricate chutes, hoppers, and structural components to keep your plant running.
What areas do you service?
SCS mainly services the entire East Coast of Australia, however we are able to mobilise all around Australia. We have a strong presence in NSW and South Australia, supporting both metropolitan quarries and regional sand and aggregate operations.
