OilQuick and Normet launch new quick-change tool system

OilQuick has partnered with Normet, a technology company specializing in underground mining, tunneling, and construction solutions. This partnership has led to the development of the new Xquick coupler system, designed to revolutionize mining efficiency, safety, and sustainability.

The new Normet Xquick coupler, built on OilQuick's quick coupler technology, allows operators to change tools and attachments in a matter of seconds without any workers around the machine. It completely eliminates the need for manual tool changes, reducing risk, and enhancing productivity in underground operations.

A game-changer for mining and construction

"We are thrilled to bring Xquick couplers to the mining market in partnership with OilQuick," said Jyrki Hyyrönmäki, global sales director of Normet's Xrock Breaker Product Line.  "This collaboration allows us to create new business opportunities for our customers, further strengthening the comprehensive solutions offered through our Xrock product line."

The addition of Xquick to Normet's Xrock suite aims to increase both productivity and safety. The Xquick coupler offers efficient, rapid switching between a variety of tools, enabling operators to handle multiple tasks using a single machine. This flexibility optimizes fleet management, reduces equipment costs, and maximizes uptime on job sites.

Johan Lindqvist, sales director of OilQuick, says "This partnership with Normet is a great opportunity for us to move into the mining segment. With our long experience and well-known reputation when it comes to quality and efficiency I know we have a lot to offer. Not to mention workplace safety in the construction business, where we are best in class for sure".
