PITS provides electrical and mechanical engineering services and solutions to the Central Queensland coal mining market specialising in hazardous area underground coal mining.

With Becker’s recent delivery of equipment for the Anglo American Grosvenor development project and the successful bid to supply its longwall electrical and automation equipment it was essential that the company had a local and experienced presence, Becker National sales and marketing manager Jim Dwyer said.

“PITS is highly regarded in the industry with experienced engineers and trade personnel that will provide Becker customers with frontline support, services and sales of the Becker product range in the region,” he said.

“As a key partner customers will benefit from the local support and have confidence that assistance is on their doorstep.”

“This distributor appointment creates an engineering services’ partnership focused on providing engineering support, engineered solutions and engineered products that will enhance productivity and safety for our Central Queensland customers.”
