Shovel Maintenance Optimization

Precision Digging & Loading

  •  Accurate location of shovel and excavators bucket on real-time basis
  •  Allow integrated geo-spatial data analysis for drill & blast optimization, orebody visualization and mine plan compliance.

Challenges

  • • Unplanned maintenance affects production.
  • • Operator behaviour can cause excessive wear, premature failure and unwanted downtime.

Solution

  • Shovel Maintenance Optimization tracks Damage Index base on:
  • • Vibration at strategic location
  • • Digging Conditions of the shove
  • • Major events such as Boom Jacking and Swing Impacts

Benefits

  • • Dashboard for maintenance to view, analyze, get customized report
  • • Anomaly detection on all of the above using AI
  • • Real-time “Cumulative Damage Index” that can be used to plan maintenance events as opposed to fixed time interval.

Machine Support

Remotely managed with RIGIDportal™

  • All of our systems can be monitored, maintained, and managed remotely via RIGIDportal web interface.

Case Study: Bucket Sensing

More Detail

Bucket Telemetry

Objectives
  • Accurate location of shovel and excavators bucket on real-time basis
  • Allow integrated geo-spatial data analysis for drill & blast optimization, orebody visualization and mine plan compliance.
  • Scalable real-time data from shovel enabled by RIGIDsense™ hardware
  • Advanced bucket-sensing algorithm to determine the accurate location of bucket on a real-time basis.
  • Multiple data pipelines for different applications such as payload monitoring, drill & blast optimization, ore sorting, and coal seam visualization
  • Bucket position with less than 20 cm accuracy
  • Enabled increase in mine plan compliance, drill and blast optimization and improved recovery

Dig-to-Limit Application

Objectives
  • Improve shovel and excavator spatial awareness
  • Improve operators’ ability to remove material as per the mine plan
  • Reduce personnel exposure to hazardous environment
  • Scalable real-time data from shovel enabled by RIGIDsense™ hardware
  • Dig-to-limit real-time guidance to operators enabled by DIG.D2L application
  • Detailed engineering analysis and plan refinements using historical data
  • 5-10% increase in mine plan compliance
  • Improved recovery
  • Reduction in surveying requirements
  • Improved machine productivity and reduced operating cost
