We reached our 950th truck milestone in September 2025, with our sister company, Golding, as the customer for this truck.

The service truck is equipped with safety systems including the certified independent ROPS, inclinometer, cab/radio reverse monitor, fire extinguishers, first aid kit, and more. We use only high-quality, industrial-grade hose reels and pumps, all from Graco.

What’s more remarkable? With a 20,000-litre fuel tank capacity, plus a combined 6,000-litre fluid capacity in its tank compartments, this is the biggest service module we’ve ever made!

Our 20,000-litre service module is fitted with nine tank compartments with combined capacity of 6,000 litres, designated for water, coolant, and various types of oil. It also has externally fitted grease pod and polyethylene AdBlue tank.

AES Equipment Solutions is proud to continually evolve with the industry’s changing demands and emerging trends.

We believe that business should be guided by purpose and not just by profit, that’s why AES Equipment Solutions supports initiatives focused on sustainability. Our machine rebuilds and refurbishment projects show this clearly, like the Caterpillar Grader we restored for our sister company, NRW Civil & Mining.

Equipment rebuilds significantly lessen the use of raw materials, such as metals, and minimise industrial waste. Just imagine how big each machine is, so keeping them out of landfills makes a significant impact.

Whenever we revive a machine, we’re not just giving it a second life. We’re showing our care for the environment in a cost-efficient way. A better way to highlight our sustainability goals.

AES Equipment Solutions is known for crafting high-quality water trucks and service modules built for maximum performance and safety. With standard features and essential safety inclusions, these support vehicles will perform in even the most demanding construction or mining environments.

Pictured here are the power duo – the 7,000-Litre Service Module and 18,000-Litre Water Truck for our valued customer, ESM Resources. The service module includes a six-point manual grease system, while the water truck features a rust-proof chassis, a 14-point manual grease system, a toolbox, and a front-tyre carrier. Both service vehicles meet all mine site requirements.

We take great pride in our products, and the trucks featured here play a crucial role in sustaining and driving the success of AES, much like our other offerings.

We completed a salt preparation project on a brand-new MAC25 Franna Crane for our key customer, Rio Tinto. We designed and installed a service point system, a front handrail system, ladder access to the engine bay, and a stainless chain box divider – all tailored to the client’s specifications. 

This project highlights the collaborative efforts of our painters, mechanics, electricians, and boilermakers. Other improvements over the OEM are the addition of a bonnet safety stay, which we designed and fabricated in-house, and the fitting of an external coolant sight glass for easy visual checks during prestart.    

For many years, AES Equipment Solutions has demonstrated expertise in preparing diverse equipment for salt mining operations, enhancing the machine’s ability to resist corrosion and avoid premature failure, while ensuring maximum performance and a long service life.

AES Equipment Solutions carried out a salt treatment project on a new Komatsu 955-7 Grader for our valued customer, Rio Tinto. 

The grader was extensively disassembled, treated at the component level, and then carefully reassembled before being commissioned. Throughout the process, we worked closely with both the customer and the OEM to implement various upgrades and modifications to the machine.

AES applies salt treatment as a critical preventive measure to ensure machine longevity, sustained performance, and reduced long-term maintenance costs. This treatment helps avoid premature rusting, corrosion, or other kinds of surface degradation and extends the life of the machine when operating in such a harsh environment.

AES complies with all site-specific requirements, ensuring that every unit we modify, treat, or rebuild is fully prepared for reliable operation upon deployment.

Our latest Service Module is designed for adaptability, mounted on a Kenworth chassis and have the same strength and reliability you expect from our standard 7,000-Litre service trucks. 

Combining sleek design with powerful performance, this Service Module offers all the essential features and benefits from a range of enhanced capabilities such as the six-point grease kit and park brake compressor shut-off. A rust-proof coating was applied to the tank’s underside, as per our valued client Impec Plant Hire’s specifications.

As we ramp up our marketing efforts to better promote our products and services, we thank our employees for their role in maintaining the quality of what we offer.

We’ve built a custom-designed fitter truck on a P280 4×4 Scania chassis, engineered for highly demanding tasks and challenging environments, such as handling heavy loads and operating in tough terrain.

This fitter truck includes a compressor, work benches, personal and bulk-storage toolboxes, oxy racks and air reels, alongside a Palfinger PC 3800 crane.

With our proven expertise in truck customisation, we bring our clients’ specialised mining builds to life.
