Vermeer West Africa is proud to announce the successful commissioning of a new Vermeer Surface Miner T1255 in Guinea. Not only is this a new customer site, but it also represents the first time this customer has adopted surface mining technology.
From Delivery to Production
Bringing a new machine into operation is much more than unloading it at site. Our team provided a complete onboarding program to ensure the customer could confidently start operations from day one.
Our commissioning package included:
- Planning: Aligning with the customer’s production targets and operational requirements.
- Training: Equipping operators and technicians with hands-on knowledge of the T1255.
- Parts Support: Ensuring critical components are available for uninterrupted operation.
- On-Site Assistance: Offering direct technical support during the first runs.
With this integrated approach, the customer didn’t just receive a machine — they received a full solution.
Why the Vermeer T1255?
The Vermeer T1255 is engineered for precision, productivity, and profitability. Its ability to cut rock mechanically eliminates the need for drilling and blasting, reduces environmental impact, and provides consistent output with less processing required downstream. For mines in Guinea, this means higher efficiency and improved safety standards.
Building Confidence with First-Time Users
Introducing new technology can be a challenge. That’s why Vermeer West Africa puts strong emphasis on knowledge transfer and continuous support. For this customer, starting with no prior surface mining experience, our team was on-site every step of the way to ensure a smooth transition.
The result? The machine is now in full operation, and the customer is equipped with the confidence and resources to maximize its potential.
Commitment to Long-Term Partnership
At Vermeer West Africa, we don’t just deliver equipment — we deliver partnerships. By supporting customers through planning, commissioning, and beyond, we make sure that every investment in Vermeer machinery translates into long-term value.
This successful commissioning is another step forward in our mission to introduce advanced mining solutions across West Africa, empowering customers with innovation, productivity, and support they can trust
