Mining companies and their suppliers are constantly looking for new ways to increase safety, productivity, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Nowadays they are putting more emphasis on climate-friendly and eco-friendly processes, zero-emission technologies, and optimal allocation of resources. Automation and digitalization are also playing a bigger role at all levels.

What if there was a cost-effective way to get accurate, timely, and frequent data? Drone technology is changing the game. Tech has transformed the way you manage your dirt-moving operation and is drastically improving efficiencies. New tech can be hard to embrace and hard to implement. That's why we believe in supporting our clients through that transition process. It is worth the challenge of a new process to have the information you need to improve your operation.

Hawk Measurement acquires SIL2 / SIL3 certification for its Centurion Guided Radar to improve reliability in safety instrumented systems in hazardous operations. Hawk Measurement Systems (HAWK), a global leader in measurement solutions, has announced that it has earned Safety Integrity Level rating SIL2 / SIL3 to aid in reducing safety risks in hazardous applications from the International Electrotechnical Commission. This Commission's (IEC) standard IEC 61508 defines SIL using requirements grouped into two broad categories: hardware safety integrity and systematic safety integrity. A device or system must meet the requirements for both categories to achieve a given SIL. Achieving this SIL certification means HAWK’s Centurion Guided Radar measurement systems will provide operators with the added insurance that it will consistently and reliably identify all processes considered hazardous and, if failure was to occur, determine that level of risk. The rating will help evaluate whether this specific technology for the measurement of multiple mediums such as liquids, sludge, powders and granules to a range of 18.5m (60ft) for level meets the selected risk tolerance level. These standards have been widely accepted globally to help define Safety Instrumented Systems and their reliability as a means of assessing and improving their safety. According to Jack Evans, President (Hawk Measurement America), “Risk reduction can be an expensive procedure and operators are looking to reduce that risk to a level as low as reasonably practicable. We take great pride that our Centurion Guided Radar measurement systems have sufficient operating history and that they have a proven track record. HAWK has long been committed to safety and risk reduction and earning SIL2 / SIL3 compliancy will establish a rigorous development process so that our customers can benefit from the advancing technologies that we have to offer. This certification is just another way we assist our customers achieve compliance while demonstrating our involvement to reduce risk.” HAWK is a world leader in level, positioning and flow measurement, providing cutting edge equipment to the global industrial market. With 30 years of experience and a record of success in a wide range of areas including mining/mineral processing, water supply/waste water, bulk material handling and chemical, our on-going commitment is to provide industry leading technology with cost-effective solutions.

Syntron vibrators off an efficient, cost-effective means to maintain free flow of product from bin, hopper and chutes, with a direct and positive result on the bottom line.

Contura Coal West, based in the Powder River Basin (western US), needed additional machines but did not have the capital budget to invest in new equipment. Contura did, however, have two idled shovels in the eastern United States it could relocate. To meet production requirements, these machines had to be moved, reassembled, upgraded and operational within eight months.

Mining is an expensive business. The costs of equipment, fuel, payroll and maintenance add up quickly, and every dime spent detracts from the mine’s profits. You want to get the most out of your mining operation, so it’s in your best interest to make sure all aspects of your operation are performing as cost-effectively as possible. Caterpillar understands this challenge, and we have the expertise and technology to help you meet it. We asked our customers to identify their biggest sources of increased costs, and many of them gave us the same five answers: process variability, unscheduled repairs, fuel costs, collisions and shift change. In this paper, we’ve gathered brief explanations of each of these challenges and offered our advice on how you can measure and respond to them. In addition, we’ve included information on how Cat® technologies can help you get the lowest possible cost per ton from your mining operation.
