BEUMER Group GmbH & Co. KG

BEUMER Group based in Beckum, Germany, with group companies around the globe develops and implements system solutions which provide greater efficiency in the mining industry and bulk material handling industry. The company can draw on more than 80 years of experience in overland conveying worldwide. Controlled growth, a global presence, and a wide product range in conveying and loading technology ensure the long-term success of the company. BEUMER Group employs around 5,500 people and achieved an annual turnover of about EUR 1,25 billion.

Since May 2022, the full-service provider has been offering its entire product spectrum, ranging from bulk material handling, and processing plants to conveyor technology. Customers are provided with complete material transport solutions from a single source. The acquisition of the FAM Group in May significantly strengthened the system provider’s position in the minerals and mining markets. FAM has its headquarters in Magdeburg, Germany. It is an internationally active, medium-sized group and a manufacturer of systems for opencast mining, stockyards, mineral processing, ports, conveying and loading.

In the mining industry overland and pipe conveyors of BEUMER Group transport various bulk materials, even over long distances and often through rough terrain. This is generally faster, more cost-efficient, and environmentally friendly than trucking. High angles of inclination and tight curve radii enable individual routing adapted to the respective task and topography. BEUMER Group relies on camera-equipped drones for the planning, projection, implementation, and documentation of these systems. Using special software solutions, the system supplier evaluates the aerial photographs photogrammetrically to generate digital terrain models and include them to their digital planning tool for a short-term and cost-efficient planning. The BEUMER Group offers its customers comprehensive services from feasibility studies and project planning to excellent project management and customer support.

BEUMER Group also provides belt and central chain bucket elevators for safe and economic vertical transport of all powders and small-sized bulk materials, for example raw meal, cement, grits, sand or concentrated ores.

For storage yards for special material blending the BEUMER Group installs stackers and reclaimers. These stack the bulk material and guarantee a maximum blending effect. Customers can also efficiently homogenise large quantities of various bulk materials and thus ensure the uniformity of the raw materials used.

To ensure efficient loading, BEUMER Group supplies ship loaders. They consist of a fixed boom with an extendable telescopic belt conveyor. This allows ships to be filled efficiently. The systems are also equipped with a dedusting unit which keeps the process emission-free. BEUMER Group also manufactures loading heads for fast and dust-free loading of bulk materials into silo vehicles. Their double-walled design separates the dedusting system from the material inlet. BEUMER Group has developed mobile loading units that can be adapted to the length of the vehicle. It also offers various telescopic systems for loading open vehicles without generating dust.

In addition, BEUMER Group offers comprehensive customer support to ensure high levels of availability for its customers’ machines and systems. It comprises intensive customer service, flexible service agreements, individual modernizations, efficient spare parts supply, extensive training for the users, and residential service.
