Ireland possesses a highly dynamic and rapidly evolving industrial sector, particularly in the realms of deep underground mining, civil engineering, and large-scale infrastructure development. As a premier Longwall Chock Carrier Exporter to Ireland, we understand the unique geological and regulatory demands of the Irish market. Historically known for housing some of Europe's largest underground zinc and lead mines, such as the Tara Mines in County Meath, Ireland requires robust, fail-safe machinery capable of navigating tight subterranean tunnels while bearing immense loads.
A Longwall Chock Carrier is an indispensable piece of heavy machinery designed specifically for the transportation of hydraulic roof supports (chocks) and other massive mining equipment. Models like our WC50Y and the 55/70T LWC are engineered to operate seamlessly in these harsh environments. With operational speeds ranging from 10 Km/Hr to 20 Km/Hr, these carriers provide the perfect balance between rapid deployment and meticulous safety, ensuring that mining operations in Ireland can maintain high productivity without compromising on the strict safety standards enforced by the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) and European Union directives.
Beyond traditional mining, the application of Longwall Chock Carriers in Ireland is expanding into civil infrastructure. With massive projects like the Dublin MetroLink and various national road tunneling initiatives underway, the need for heavy-duty, maneuverable underground transport has never been greater. Our carriers are utilized to move heavy tunnel boring machine (TBM) components, hydraulic shoring systems, and massive concrete segments deep underground. The rugged terrain of Ireland, combined with the often damp and challenging subterranean conditions, demands equipment that features superior hydraulic sealing, anti-corrosion properties, and advanced AI-assisted diagnostic systems—all of which are standard in our exported fleets.
Furthermore, the rehabilitation of Ireland's extensive peat bogs and the construction of remote wind farms in counties like Kerry and Galway require specialized transport vehicles that exert minimal ground pressure while carrying maximum tonnage. Our modified chock carriers, equipped with high-pressure hydraulic hoses and advanced suspension systems, are increasingly being adapted for these specialized surface and sub-surface applications across the Republic of Ireland.
Shaanxi Kelong New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. was founded in 1996, which grew from Xianyang Kelong Rubber Products Institute. It is a technological innovation company integrating R&D, production, and sales. We concentrate on hydraulic seal sets, high-pressure hoses, coal mine auxiliary transportation equipment, repairing coal mine auxiliary transportation equipment, technological services, and more.
The products have been widely applied to the Mining industry, Civil Aviation, High-speed railway, Engineering machinery, Wind power, and etc. Our high-quality products and services are trusted by customers all over the world, making us a leading exporter to the European and Irish markets. The company is among the top three in the domestic coal machine sealing industry, and our high-pressure rubber hoses and Frame-type handling vehicles are expected to enter the top three within two years. The main products share 8% in the domestic market.

As a leading Longwall Chock Carrier Exporter, we are keenly aware of the technological shifts dictating the future of heavy machinery in Europe. The Irish market is rapidly moving towards automation, IoT (Internet of Things) integration, and eco-conscious engineering. Modern chock carriers are no longer just brute-force machines; they are highly sophisticated, AI-enhanced vehicles. Our latest R&D initiatives focus on integrating smart sensors that monitor hydraulic pressure, tire wear, and structural stress in real-time, transmitting this data to above-ground control centers. This predictive maintenance capability drastically reduces downtime—a critical factor for high-yield mining operations in Ireland.
Furthermore, environmental sustainability is at the forefront of European industrial policy. Our engineering teams are pioneering the use of biodegradable hydraulic fluids and highly efficient, low-emission power trains for our WC50Y and 50T series. These advancements ensure that our carriers not only meet but exceed the stringent environmental regulations required for operating within Ireland's delicate ecological zones, making Kelong the preferred partner for forward-thinking Irish enterprises.
