Mobile Plant Maintenance
EMS keeps your mobile plant working. We deliver mobile plant maintenance for mining and civil operations across Australia, from a single breakdown to a full fleet under contract.
Maintenance Support That Keep Your Project on Track
EMS is a specialist in mobile plant maintenance for the mining and construction industries. From excavators and diggers to haul trucks, dozers, loaders and drills, our job is to keep your heavy equipment performing at its peak and your operation moving.
Our technicians are trade certified and site ready. They work from mine site compliant field service vehicles, fully equipped with the tooling to handle the job on site, whatever its size, location or complexity.
We cover the full scope of plant maintenance: scheduled inspections, preventive servicing, diagnostics, repairs and component replacement. Proactive maintenance means fewer surprise breakdowns, safer equipment and more time in production.
Planned shutdown, routine project work or an urgent breakdown at 2am, we show up, with the right people, and we get it done.
Mechanical Maintenance
Our specialists maintain heavy mobile equipment end to end, with field support, rostered site support, scheduled servicing, rapid breakdown repairs and shutdown crews.
Digger and Excavator Maintenance
Excavators and diggers are the backbone of most sites. Our digger maintenance and excavator maintenance services keep them reliable, safe and productive, on site and ready to dig.
HME Shutdowns
When the clock is running, our HME services and shutdown teams plan, resource and deliver against the schedule, so your heavy mobile equipment comes back online on time.
Auto Electrical
Our auto electrical services are specifically tailored for mining environments. With years of industry expertise and a team of highly skilled technicians, we offer a range of services including diagnostics, fault finding and troubleshooting. From general repairs to full machinery rewires and fit-outs, we’ll customise a solution that meets your needs.
Line Boring
With expert machining capabilities, we help minimise downtime by efficiently repairing and re-machining affected components directly on-site, guaranteeing a swift turnaround. Our skilled line borers can restore your equipment to OEM factory specifications, repairing and restore worn or damaged bores within various mining equipment components – including booms, buckets, arms and tracks.
Welding and Fabrication
Our experienced boilermakers can perform upgrades, re-builds and repairs both on and off-site including bucket and tray repairs, rebuilds and assembly, conditioning monitoring, Ground Engaging Tool (G.E.T) Monitoring, and OEM-specific repairs and upgrades. We meticulously inspect, identify and address issues such as cracks, worn-out parts and damaged components to maintain your equipment in peak condition.

Frequently asked questions
What is mobile plant maintenance?
Mobile plant maintenance covers the inspection, servicing, repair and overhaul of self-propelled heavy equipment such as excavators, diggers, dozers, loaders, graders, drills and haul trucks. It keeps machines safe, compliant and productive, and reduces unplanned downtime.
What equipment does EMS maintain?
We maintain most mobile and heavy mobile equipment (HME) used on mining and civil sites, including excavators, diggers, haul trucks, dozers, loaders, graders and drill rigs, across mechanical, auto electrical, welding and line boring disciplines.
Do you offer on-site field service, or workshop repairs only?
Both. Our field service vehicles are mine site compliant and equipped to complete most work where your plant is. Larger rebuilds and fabrication can also be handled off site when that is the better option.
How quickly can you respond to a breakdown?
Speed is built into how we work. We run a responsive FIFO pool and emergency callout teams so we can mobilise quickly for urgent breakdowns and keep your downtime to a minimum.
Which parts of Australia do you cover?
We operate across metro Perth, the Pilbara, the Goldfields and the Northern Territory, and support east coast clients from our Mackay office in Queensland.
Are your technicians trade certified and site compliant?
Yes. Every technician is trade certified, and our crews meet site safety, induction and compliance requirements so they are ready to work the moment they arrive.
Can you support planned shutdowns as well as routine maintenance?
Yes. Alongside scheduled servicing and breakdown repairs, our HME shutdown teams plan, resource and deliver shutdown scopes against tight timelines so your equipment returns to production on schedule.
What is the difference between mobile plant maintenance and fixed plant maintenance?
Mobile plant maintenance covers self-propelled machines like excavators, diggers and haul trucks. Fixed plant maintenance covers stationary processing equipment such as crushers and conveyors. EMS specialises in mobile plant and heavy mobile equipment.
