Turkey’s mining sector is undergoing a profound transformation. With vast reserves of lignite and hard coal, particularly in regions like Zonguldak, Soma, and Elbistan, the demand for sophisticated Longwall Chock Carriers has reached an all-time high. Traditional mining methods are being replaced by fully mechanized systems to enhance safety and productivity. Turkish exporters and companies are increasingly looking for robust, high-capacity machinery that can navigate the complex geological structures of the Taurus and Pontic mountains.
Following modern safety mandates issued by the Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, mines are prioritizing explosion-proof diesel engines and heavy-duty hydraulic transport systems. As a leading supplier, we provide equipment that meets these rigorous standards, ensuring that longwall shields and heavy hydraulic supports can be transported safely through tight underground tunnels without risking structural failure or environmental hazards.
The Turkish market is shifting toward "Smart Mining." This involves the integration of IoT sensors on Longwall Chock Carriers to monitor engine health and hydraulic pressure in real-time. Our technology, which includes high-precision hydraulic seals and durable high-pressure hoses, is at the forefront of this trend, offering Turkish mining operators the reliability needed for 24/7 production cycles.
Whether it is the hard coal deposits in the Black Sea region or the brown coal (lignite) basins in Western Anatolia, our carriers are engineered for Turkey's unique terrain.
Known for its deep mines and steep seams, Zonguldak requires carriers with exceptional climbing ability and compact dimensions. Our WC40E and WC50Y series are specifically favored here for their maneuverability in narrow drifts.
In the open-cast and deep underground lignite mines of Soma, high-volume production is key. Our 80T hydraulic support trucks are designed to handle the massive shield supports required for wide-face longwall installations common in this region.
Turkey is not just a consumer but also a strategic gateway for mining machinery. Many Turkish engineering firms act as primary exporters to neighboring markets in the Balkans, Central Asia, and the Middle East. By partnering with Kelong New Materials, Turkish companies gain access to world-class sealing technology and heavy-duty carriers that enhance their competitive edge in international bidding processes.

ISO and IRIS certified. Strict checks throughout the production process guarantee top-notch quality for Turkey's demanding conditions.
Utilizing production technology from DMH Company in Austria and complete equipment sets imported from Italy.
Top three in the domestic coal machine sealing industry, now expanding aggressively into the Turkish and Eurasian markets.
Turkish mines are known for high dust concentration and humidity, which places immense stress on hydraulic components. Our range of specialized seals—including the Three Piece Hydraulic Piston Seals and PTFE Simmerring U-Seals—are engineered to withstand these abrasive conditions. Using materials like high-temp resistant PU and 304 stainless steel, we ensure that the carriers and support trucks operating in Elbistan or Zonguldak experience minimal downtime due to seal failure.
As the Turkish mining industry continues to modernize, the focus will shift towards electric-powered auxiliary transportation to meet green energy targets and reduce ventilation costs in deep mines. Kelong is actively researching the next generation of battery-electric carriers that will offer Turkish operators a sustainable and efficient alternative to traditional diesel transport. We invite Turkish mining companies, exporters, and engineering contractors to collaborate with us in building a safer and more productive mining future.
By choosing Kelong, you are not just buying a machine; you are investing in a partnership backed by decades of R&D, international technical standards, and a commitment to the Turkish mining sector's long-term growth.
