Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions has unveiled a comprehensive automation platform, AutoMine Core, for large-scale mining operations.

The new system is designed to help customers transition from manual mining techniques to fully automated production processes.

It offers users a range of compatibility options for Sandvik’s own fleet and third-party original equipment manufacturer fleets.

Leveraging Sandvik’s AutoMine Fleet and manual production monitoring solutions, the AutoMine Core platform provides access to technologies for underground connectivity, data aggregation and analysis, and several automated equipment choices.

Its implementation is expected to enhance safety, sustainability and productivity for underground mining.

Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions product line and customer projects automation acting director Ty Osborne said: “AutoMine is used in more than 100 mines globally, including more than 20 mass mining applications.
