Recognising the potential for improved safety, productivity, and cost savings, global mining services provider Mining Plus implemented an optimised bogging workflow in one of Byrnecut Global’s sub-level caving operations.
The dangerous, low-visibility conditions where LHD (load-haul-dump) machines operate are the perfect environment for accidents.
Vehicle damage, risk to life, and critical operational impact are difficult to avoid when operators are relying on 2D cameras for their intel.
Mining Plus knew there was a better way, a safer and more accurate approach, backed by the advanced SLAM-based LiDAR (simultaneous localisation and mapping of light detection and ranging) scanning technology of Emesent Hovermap.
Requiring no specialist training, and easily attached to existing LHD equipment, the 3D data delivered in the form of a live point cloud allowed precise identification of danger and a faster response to the immediate risks.
