phisticated, control system that provides unmatched versatility and reliability. The Flexiveyor™ has a haulage capacity of 1,200 tons (potash) per hour. In addition to the mining machines and the Flexiveyor™, the next part of PM&P’s complete mining system is the belt storage magazine (BSM) and extensible conveyor structure. The mining machine pulls the conveyor belt as it advances forward. The BSM stores a conveyor belt whilst maintaining a constant belt tension during start-up and operation. To go between the BSM and the miner, Prairie Machine has a patented extensible conveyor structure deployment system. This patented system allows the conveyor structure to be “bundled” up for easy transport around the mine, as well as allowing for minimal manual handling for belt structure deployment.

“We always took the approach that we wanted to improve the broken or worn-out part that came to us. Building solutions for our customers is how PM&P started and continues to grow today. We take the approach that anything can be improved; it can always be made better. We wanted to make it easy for our customers to do business with us, right here in Saskatoon. I always say that being in business is like running the hurdles – there’s always one in front of you and you just gotta get your few good steps and make the jump,” says Popplewell.
