Remote control systems
The first package of commercialized products from our Advanced Vehicle Technology group, under the MacLean IQ Series product line banner, consists of three levels of remote-control technology.
From basic line-of-sight to surface operation packages, MacLean can deliver and support the appropriate remote-control solution for your unique underground mining environment. These remote-control systems are an excellent addition to the MacLean Ore Flow product line, to safely bring down draw point hang-ups and make block caving operations, in particular, safer and more productive.
Line of sight remote operations of MacLean mining vehicles, via radio signal in the underground environment
