Standards
ISO 9001 quality control, factory-tested before dispatch
Outcome
Delivered to site ready to commission, with expert on-site commissioning
The challenge
A copper mining operation needed heavy-duty power distribution in a demanding, often remote environment. Building a motor control centre in the field means accepting risk on quality, safety and schedule, since controlled conditions and skilled labour are hard to guarantee away from a workshop. The unit had to be durable, safe for a mining environment and ready to run on arrival.
What PCS Global did
PCS precision-manufactured the unit as a containerised MCC in its own equipped workshop, built and tested under ISO 9001 quality control with a focus on durability and safety for mining conditions. Quality was signed off before the unit left the workshop, then PCS provided expert on-site commissioning so the MCC was brought into service cleanly rather than improvised in the field.
The result
- A heavy-duty containerised MCC delivered to a remote site ready to commission, quality assured before shipment.
- Field build risk on quality and schedule removed by manufacturing and testing in controlled workshop conditions, delivering the kind of stable, scalable and secure infrastructure a modern plant is built on.
