Field Welding
While Joy Global id not invent welding, we have been expert at it since the 1930s. We were among the first industrial firms in America to move from riveted structures to all-welded design for optimal equipment strength and durability.
Joy Global field welding capabilities apply not only to your surface mining equipment, but also to your ore-processing systems as well. One of our great strengths is our welding technology, and we stand ready to apply that technology to your equipment and processing systems.
When you need expert, efficient and effective welding help, Joy Global field welding team delivers the results you require.
