Why a Truck
Turntable Transforms Your Mining Project

A truck turntable is a game-changer for modern mining operations, delivering measurable improvements in safety, efficiency, and operational control. By allowing heavy vehicles to rotate precisely within confined or high-traffic areas, a truck turntable eliminates complex reversing manoeuvres that increase risk and slow productivity. This leads to smoother traffic flow, reduced cycle times, and less wear on vehicles and infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do truck turntables improve safety on mining sites?

Truck turntables eliminate the need for reversing in high-risk areas such as dump points, ROM pads, and crusher feed zones. This allows trucks to enter and exit facing forward, reducing collision risks, blind spots, and exposure of ground personnel. Removing reversing manoeuvres is one of the most effective ways to improve overall site safety and compliance.
Speak with our team specialists.

How much space is required to install a truck turntable?

Truck turntables require far less space than traditional turning loops or reversing zones. Each system is custom-engineered to suit your vehicle type, payload, and site layout, making them ideal for tight pits, underground access points, and constrained infrastructure areas.
Request a layout assessment.

Does a truck turntable reduce vehicle maintenance and tyre costs?

Yes. Turntables eliminate tight turning manoeuvres and reversing under load, which reduces stress on the chassis, steering components, and tyres. This helps extend vehicle lifespan, lowers maintenance costs, and improves fleet reliability over the life of the project.

Can the turntable be relocated once our pit or project phase ends?

Absolutely. We understand the dynamic nature of mining sites. Our turntables feature a modular design that allows for rapid dismantling and re-installation at a new location. We also offer short-term and long-term rental options for temporary projects, so you don't have to commit to CapEx for a temporary need.

What vehicle types and weight capacities can the turntable handle?

Our mining turntables are engineered for extreme loads. We accommodate a full range of heavy machinery, from Articulated Dump Trucks (ADTs) and rigid haulers to multi-trailer Road Trains and Ultra-Class trucks. Standard capacities range from 20 tonnes to 500+ tonnes GVM, with custom diameters available to suit long wheelbases or unique fleet configurations.

How does the turntable perform in mud, dust, and harsh mining conditions?

Built for extremes, our turntables feature sealed bearing systems and self-cleaning mechanisms to prevent grit, mud, or fines from impacting rotation. Designed with robust drive systems that resist water and dust ingress, they require minimal scheduled maintenance—keeping your operation moving without becoming a service burden.

How long does it take to install a mining turntable?

Installation timelines vary depending on the size, site preparation, and project scope. Our team manages the full process, from engineering and manufacturing to installation and commissioning, ensuring minimal disruption to your operations.

What is the ROI of installing a truck turntable in a mining site?

Mining turntables deliver measurable ROI by reducing accident risks, lowering vehicle maintenance costs, improving traffic efficiency, and optimising site space. They also help reduce downtime and improve overall operational productivity.

How is the turntable operated? Do drivers need to exit the vehicle?

No. To ensure zero pedestrian interaction and maximum safety, drivers remain in the cab at all times. The turntable is operated via a simple remote control or fully automated sensors, keeping the cycle fast and eliminating the risks associated with ground personnel in heavy machinery zones.
