Frequently Asked Questions

AI analyses sensor data from mining equipment including vibration, temperature, pressure, and operational parameters to identify patterns that precede failures. This enables maintenance teams to address issues before breakdowns occur, significantly reducing unplanned downtime and extending equipment life. Our models integrate with existing SCADA and historian systems.

Yes, AI dramatically improves mine safety through multiple applications: real-time monitoring of worker locations and fatigue levels, detection of ground stability issues, identification of equipment proximity hazards, and automated safety system triggers. Computer vision can monitor for PPE compliance and unsafe behaviours across the site.

We build AI solutions that integrate with all major mining equipment platforms and sensor systems including Caterpillar MineStar, Komatsu FrontRunner, Hitachi EH series, and Sandvik OptiMine. Our solutions connect to existing SCADA, historians, and fleet management systems to provide unified AI insights.

AI models analyse drilling data, geological surveys, assay results, and real-time sensor data from processing to predict ore grades more accurately. This enables better blast planning, improved stockpile management, and optimised processing parameters. Miners typically see 10-20% improvement in grade control accuracy.

Mining AI projects typically follow a phased approach: 4-8 weeks for proof of concept with historical data, 3-6 months for pilot deployment on specific equipment or processes, and 6-12 months for full-scale rollout. We work closely with mining operations to minimise disruption and ensure safety throughout implementation.
