MEC – Capability Statement
Mechanical Engineering Corporation - Workshop
The Mechanical Engineering Corporation facilities were established just after the
second world war initially by the former State Electricity Commission of Victoria, to
service Victoria’s Power and Mining interests in the 1940’s. The facility was then
operated by the former public company from 1993-2004. In 2004 the facility was
purchased by Mechanical Engineering Corporation and now operates as a fully private
commercial operation. Of noted is, that “MEC” is part of the Eliott Group of
Companies and is a sister company to “Eliott Engineering” which is based in Kilsyth
Victoria. The Eliott family company has operated in Australia since 1904 when it
traded as a local Blacksmith and Coachbuilder from a workshop in the Melbourne
suburb of Hawthorn.
LOCATION
The Mechanical Engineering Corporation facility is located at Yallourn,
approximately 90 minutes south-east of Melbourne, Victoria. The facility is accessible
by major roads and only minutes from the Princes Freeway, with rail links nearby.
It occupies an area of 5.75 hectares with 20,000 square meters of covered buildings
housing some of South East Asia’s largest machinery and fabrication equipment.
EXPERIENCE
Mechanical Engineering Corporation offers a diverse range of services and facilities
not found in other organizations.
“MEC” has the ability to provide at short notice, experienced trades labour,
professional personnel, contract management, and substantial workshop facilities
located at Yallourn & Kilsyth.
Being able to provide these services from within one organization has allowed “MEC”
to bring a diverse organizational network to a number of cooperative ventures,
partnership arrangements and manufacturing or refurbishment activities.

Bay 2 also houses the shop’s balancing facility where two machines, with capacity up
to 5 tonnes and maximum speed of 4000 RPM, carry out a range of balancing
activities on fluid couplings, boiler feed pump elements, fans and other items of plant.
Bay 4 is the hub of the workshops; it is here that the heavy machining and heavy
fitting sections are housed . These two sections complement each other on tasks such
as turbine refurbishment, coal crusher repairs and medium to large pump and gearbox
overhauls.
The machining section has machine capacity ranging from a vertical borer’s capable
of swinging items up to diameter 7,600 with head heights of up to 2,800 and
maximum table weight of 40 tonnes, to the Wagner lathe which has an 18,000 long
