2025-10-15

Client Background


A startup mining equipment manufacturer in Brasilia, Brazil, specializing in small-scale mineral processing equipment, with a 20-person team seeking cost-effective hydraulic solutions.
Pain Points: Needed high-pressure hydraulic pumps for dusty mining environments, with limited budgets and technical support for optimizing overall hydraulic systems.


Ouster Solution


• Customized dust-proof piston pumps with labyrinth seals and wear-resistant coatings, operating stably in environments with 0.5mg/m³ dust concentration.

• Offered a "equipment + pump" integrated solution, helping the client optimize hydraulic circuits and reduce system energy consumption by 12%.

• Initiated a "trade-in" program, allowing old pumps to be discounted by 15% against new purchases to lower initial investment.


Outcome


The client's equipment operated faultlessly for 2 years in local iron ore mines, driving its annual sales from $800K to $3M. Ouster's pumps have become a core component of its product line.
