As International Mining finalises October articles on both conveying and comminution comes news that the process of integrating Continental Crushing & Conveying into Joy Mining will begin immediately. Mike Sutherlin, President and CEO of Joy Global: “We have always intended that crushers and conveyors would become seamless extensions of our P&H and Joy Mining product lines, and therefore sold and supported just as any other product in these divisions. This integration will accelerate our progress in having Joy Mining and P&H Mining Equipment be the face to the customer for crushing and conveying systems.” P&H will become the exclusive dealer for all surface mining and industrial applications which includes the management of current Continental above-ground distributors.

Ted Doheny, President of Joy Mining Machinery, will be responsible for all aspects of the crushing and conveying business. He said, “This integration is a critical step in the long-term achievement and financial contribution of the crushing and conveying products, and is crucial to Joy Global’s success as a full systems supplier.”
