The elevators are a part of Boliden\u2019s total investment of SEK 6 billion (about $940 million) in this open pit mine, which includes a new modern concentrating plant that will double the production capacity, from 18 million tons to 36 million tons of ore annually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;elevators have been installed to facilitate the maintenance and inspection of different applications such as crushing, ore stockpile, grinding, flotation and de-watering. The working environment in the mine creates high demand on the&nbsp;elevators&nbsp;durability and reliability. The&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;elevators accommodate lifting heights between 14 meters and 48 meters and payload capacities between 400 kg to 1,800 kg. They are equipped with the modern ALC-II microprocessor-based control system, emergency phone, and overload sensing device.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remote monitoring&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>All elevators are equipped with&nbsp;Alimaks\u2019 online A3 remote monitoring system, which means the elevators can operate 24 hours a day fully monitored with any faults being transmitted instantly for speedy correction and to minimize downtime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Experience in the mining industry&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;rack and pinion elevator is the perfect solution for both underground and surface mining industry applications, such as pelletising plants, smelters, concentrators, and other ore processing plants. Hundreds of&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;elevators have been delivered to a variety of mine applications around the world, including the&nbsp;Aitik&nbsp;copper mine. The deepest&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;elevator goes 640 meters below ground at the Grasberg mine, Irian Jaya in Indonesia. It is also the highest situated&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;elevator at an altitude of 4,100 meters. The deepest situated&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;elevator is for the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory in Canada, about 2,000 meters below ground level.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ELEVATOR DETAILS&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Location:&nbsp;Aitik&nbsp;copper mine,&nbsp;G\u00e4llivare, Sweden&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Project: Mine expansion project&nbsp;Aitik&nbsp;36&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Installation year: 2009&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Application: New concentrating plant&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elevator type: Alimak SE <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No. of elevators: 7&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Capacity: Varies between 400 kg and 1,800 kg&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lifting height: Varies between 14 m and 48 m&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">GALLERY<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"262\" height=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"589\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/?attachment_id=589\" class=\"wp-image-589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-1.jpg 262w, https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"262\" height=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"590\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-2.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/?attachment_id=590\" class=\"wp-image-590\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-2.jpg 262w, https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-2-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"262\" height=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"591\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-3.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/?attachment_id=591\" class=\"wp-image-591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-3.jpg 262w, https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/11\/Aitik-mine-Gallery-module-3-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":588,"menu_order":38,"template":"","meta":{"_trash_the_other_posts":false,"editor_notices":[],"footnotes":""},"project-category":[],"region":[266],"industry":[11],"class_list":["post-585","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","region-europe","industry-mining"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Aitik copper mine - Alimak Italy<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/it\/project\/aitik-copper-mine-gallivare-sweden\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Aitik copper mine - Alimak Italy\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Seven&nbsp;Alimak&nbsp;rack and pinion elevators improve access at Boliden\u2019s&nbsp;Aitik&nbsp;mine expansion.
