PScale - Underground Mining Scaler for Safe and Efficient Ground Support
Built for Maximum Scaling Performance Underground
The PScale underground mining scaler is designed to deliver safe, precise and efficient scaling in demanding underground environments.
Available in multiple configurations, including working heights of 8 m and 10 m, the PScale combines compact design, powerful reach and sensitive control to ensure reliable ground support in modern mining operations. Whether in narrow veins or larger galleries, the PScale provides the stability, visibility and precision required for safe scaling operations.
Why Choose the PScale for Underground Scaling?
Because safety and precision matter underground.
Scaling is one of the most critical safety operations in underground mining. The PScale is engineered to give operators full control, maximum visibility and a safe working environment, even in challenging conditions.
Key advantages include:
- Precise and sensitive control for accurate scaling
- Large scaling coverage for efficient ground support
- Fast repositioning between working areas
- Excellent visibility for safer operation
- Compact design for confined underground spaces
The result is faster scaling, improved safety and consistent results across all underground applications.
Designed for Underground Conditions
PScale Variants

FAQ
What is an underground mining scaler?
An underground mining scaler is a machine used to remove loose rock after blasting to ensure safe working conditions.
What is the advantage of a battery-electric scaler?
Battery-electric scalers like the PScale 8-TE produce zero emissions, improve air quality, reduce ventilation costs and lower overall operating expenses.
When should I choose a low-profile scaler?
Low-profile scalers like the PScale 10-T LP are ideal for mines with restricted ceiling heights or narrow vein operations where standard machines cannot operate efficiently.
What makes the PScale different from other scaling machines?
The Paus PScale platform combines compact design, large coverage, excellent visibility, advanced safety features and multiple variants (standard, low-profile, electric) to cover all underground scenarios.
