  Mining operations in a new future world

I had the idea to make a scene of a spaceship, landed on some alien 
planet, with machinery around performing mining operations. First I made 
a ship model, remotely inspired by a maggot or caterpillar shape, to 
have some association with the "live to eat", since mining is like 
eating a planet ... first attachment shows the ship on some starport.

After the ship I started to work on some machinery and made a bucket 
excavator type of machine model. (Second attachment)

But ... would a race that can build spaceships resort to such machines? 
I am worried I'll have technological clash there.
