Hexagon’s Mining division has introduced HxGN MineDiscover Display 9, an advanced machine display that it says will maximise the user experience for equipment operators. The new display features an optically bonded, anti-glare 9-inch touchscreen that guarantees visibility in tough environments. It‘s multi-touch capable, allowing future applications to utilise features such as pinch-to-zoom and gestures. Display 9 is designed for harsh environments and can withstand the extreme environmental conditions typically encountered in mines.

“The heart of the new Display 9 features a powerful Intel-based computing platform that improves performance significantly. The greatly improved user experience means enhanced productivity and operator efficiency.”

“Through the use of the latest technologies, the Display 9 brings a new level of performance to our hardware suite,“ said Principal Product Manager, Joe Arico. “Operators will immediately notice a smoother interaction with our MineOperate portfolio, allowing them to work more efficiently.” Display 9 becomes the standard offering on all the company‘s low-precision equipment and high-precision dozers. It will be available optionally on other high-precision equipment alongside the standard Display 12 offering.
