Originally established as the firm of Pawling & Harnischfeger, Engineers and Machinists, the company’s first true heavy industrial marketplace success was in the manufacture of overhead electric cranes. To diversify its offerings, the company started to develop and introduce several types of trenching excavators around 1911. Now P&H Mining is considered a global leader in the manufacture and service of pace-setting large excavating and drilling machines with ninety percent of the world’s surface mines utilizing P&H Equipment.
