Hard-Line Solutions has three new products to showcase at MINExpo taking place next month in Las Vegas, Nev. All feature levels of automation that make mining even safer.
Auto Rockbreaker
Hard-Line is launching Auto Rockbreaker, a ground-breaking product that its says will disrupt the mining industry. For the first time ever, operators will have the ability to automate many rock breaking tasks. With Auto Rockbreaker, mining companies will be able to reduce maintenance and operator training costs, decrease wear and tear while extending the life of all rockbreakers. The system has many functions including auto deploy and auto park as well as other features making the operator-experience that much more intuitive with Hard-Line’s 3D User Interface.
TeleOp Assist
The company is also introducing the newest addition to its TeleOp suite – TeleOp Assist. With the upgraded add-on in Assist, this enhanced mode equips the base TeleOp system with intelligent steering assistance and collision detection to keep machines off walls while driving. Using real-time 3D Lidar scans, Assist will automatically steer to handle the articulation adjustments required to keep a machine as centred as possible within the drift. With Assist’s adaptive technology, a pre-scan of the drift is not required, and that is a significant cost savings. The system does not require any training when moving from one level to another.
Brow Alert
Finally, Brow Alert is an added level of protection for any underground mine. It serves as an add-on system designed to deter an operator from manually driving a vehicle past the brow line of a stope by using sensors and modules. The system is easy to install. It reduces risk of workplace injuries and fatalities, encourages accountability, and keeps operators a safe distance from the brow.
