Why Arcoplate?
What's the advantage?
Why should I change?
Operating for over 25 years we are an Australian Independent, International
company. Our ARCOPLATE manufacturing facility and head office are located in
Perth, Western Australia. We are Accredited to latest ISO Standards for
Production & Design. ARCOPLATE is complimented by our Metallurgical,
Engineering & Design Service. We have offices and outlets around Australia, in
the USA, Canada, Brazil, India, Africa and Chile.
ARCOPLATE Fused Alloy Steel Plate
ARCOPLATE - is a fused alloy displaying:

A smooth deposit with no weld beads
Has a very low residual stress and controlled relief fractures
Has 39% less co-efficient of friction than Stainless Steel
It is a single pass alloy deposition form ¼ to ¾ inch
Maintains a uniform microstructure down to the fusion line
Computer controlled metal dilution.
No plate distortion and
Available in Mill or Polished Finish.
So what!!
Superior Abrasion Resistance
ARCOPLATE - A Fused Alloy With Many Benefits
Laboratory & most importantly field tests reveal that ARCOPLATE will
outperform:
Quenched & Tempered steel plate by a factor greater than 6:1

Substandard budget weld overlay by a factor of up to 4:1
Conventional weld overlay by a factor of up to 2:1
So it Works!
Predictable Wear Rates
Arcoplate’s fusion process and unique microstructure enables:
Consistent predictable wear rates right to the fusion line

High sliding abrasion & High impact resistance in a single product
Smooth low friction surface enabling very low resistance to flow
Anti Hang-up and Corrosion Resistant properties.
and Works!
Longevity of Performance
Arcoplate is constantly attributed to fewer maintenance

windows making it the No.1 cost saving choice for many end
users
Alloy Steel International's dedicated team of professionals are

experts in the field. We offer whole of life modelling by tailoring
Arcoplate to your specific needs and applications
We can also offer whole of life financial benefits through our

Price Justification spread sheet which is available on request.
…and Works!

Fixed Plant Application
Case History
Large copper mining operations are typically in a very isolated regions making longevity
of performance and reliability all the more fundamental to mining success. Prior to using
Arcoplate these stockpile feeders and discharge feeders were lined with a 32mm thick
competitor wear liner. 1900 hours service (12 weeks) was common before a total
replacement was required – until Arcoplate. Arcoplate 16mm overlay chosen for its
longevity of performance was recommended and installed. This now enabled the
feeders to achieve 7000 hours service completely maintenance free. With some further
design enhancements to the liners and incorporating removable tubs over the last year
more weeks were added to the maintenance windows. Now with the choice of 20mm
overlay (3/4”) we expect to deliver well in excess of 10000 hours service (72 weeks).
These results are very consistent for many of our projects.
To build our business, it has never been the frequency of supply that we rely on but
rather the longevity of performance to exceed expectations. This affords us a great
reputation for quality and cost saving efforts and promotes mutual business growth.

Mobile Plant Application
Case History – Newmont Batu Hijau
In Batu Hijau ASI was invited to conducted thickness checks on the fleet of 116, 793C
truck bodies. This was undertaken in conjunction with Newmont Mining and their client
Caterpillar. After 12 months service it was determined that the average wear for 6000
hours service on the Arcoplate 10/9 floor was a loss of 1mm (0.042”).
Predicted wear life for the Arcoplate at the current rate of 1.2mm per annum (worst
case) would achieve a life expectancy of approx. 8 years or 48,000 hours. ASI don’t
suggest we can attain these results without some periodic maintenance to the floors in
this environment, however, the new design Arcoplate kits will be far less to maintain
and cost far less per cycle to run than any other wear kit on the market.
Truck 58 is one of about 9 trucks at Batu Hijau fitted with a full Rock Box wear kit liner
(not recommended by ASI) in the high velocity tail section. It was noted when these
trucks are tipping that the tipping cycle is approx. 30% slower than the Arcoplate kits.
Video taken of both wear kit applications revealed that the Arcoplate kits are constantly
empty at 70% lift and tipping time is 22 to 23 seconds. The Rock Box kits are all still
ejecting at 100% lift every time and take 30 to 32 seconds to fully eject.
