First Break Mining
Automation and information management
Epiroc can provide automated solutions that increase utilization and productivity in the mining and infrastructure industry.
Data driven decisions
Expedite the flow of information between assets and systems to the right place at the right time.
Connecting assets, systems and people
Share actionable insights, making incremental improvements to maximize productivity.
Optimizing through automation
Connect the unconnected for a smarter, integrated operation that increases efficiency.
6th Sense is how Epiroc utilizes collected insights to optimize your technology, value chain and employees - using automation, process and system integration.
Give your connected operation an extra sense by enabling it to instantly share critical information, synchronizing resources and coordinating a response in real time. 6th Sense – Smart. Safe. Seamless.
Automation technology
Automation technologyIncrease accuracy and safety with automated machine functions. Epiroc has customized certain products by automating functions such as adding drill rods or changing drill bits. Features such as automatic leveling and drill stop protection are also integrated to maintain precision and safety.
A new relationship between operator and machine with teleremote control. Platforms like our Rig Control System (RCS) enable machines to be operated remotely with a control panel that monitors local sensors and cameras. The operator can be located away from hazardous areas in the safety and comfort of a control room.
Machine automation
Machine automationConnectivity and automation to increase equipment productivity. Epiroc can now enable the integration of smart connected machines, programmed to complete for example, a precise drilling sequence. Machine sensors will alert the control room if there is an obstacle or the intervention of an operator is required. Without the normal constraints of staff schedules, this allows for extended machine uptime, reducing the wear and tear associated with a manual operation.
Turn data into decision-making insights. Data is at the heart of an efficient operation, which is why we offer a variety of software options to collect and analyze operational data. For example, we have a telematics solution that gathers, compares and shares equipment data to help you target improvement areas.
Epiroc real-time situational awareness software tracks everything from equipment to employees, whether you are locating the nearest pump to refuel a machine or to verify that all personnel have reached a designated safety area in an emergency.
Automated machine systems
Automated machine systemsMaximize machine uptime with a scalable implementation plan. Working together, Epiroc can create a step-by-step plan, tailored for an automation solution and information management system that is based on your situation and optimization targets.
Unlock production gains with interoperability. As part of the commitment to develop technology and innovation for the future, Epiroc have extended their interoperability platform with open and agnostic solutions for integrating equipment, processes and systems.
Epiroc's APIs have pre-defined interfaces that allows your data to be collected and converted into actionable insights.
