SANY’s Smart Mining Solution 3.0 now running at over 10 mining sites

Posted on 28 Sep 2024

In July, SANY launched its Smart Mining Solution 3.0 in China, addressing it says the common pain points of conventional open-pit mining, like difficulties in quantifying stripping plans, lack of real-time operational feedback, vehicle inefficiencies, and fragmented safety management.

Key features include smarter construction planning; as optimised stripping paths and digitalised road networks help dispatch vehicles more efficiently, reducing idle time and boosting productivity.

It also achieves better resource allocation as intelligent vehicle assignments mean the mine owner or contractor is getting the best excavation and hauling ratios, minimising resource waste and lowering costs.

Automated process management is achieved through end-to-end data-driven decision-making that ensures precise and efficient extraction, transport, and dumping operations.

Finally, SANY says it brings enhanced safety as from entry qualifications and permits, to real-time monitoring, safety alerts, and hazardous area warnings, every step is safeguarded.

Acting as the “brain” of the mine, the solution integrates advanced technologies like big data, IoT, and AI. SANY says it has already been implemented in over ten mining sites, including Inner Mongolia and Jiangsu province.
