BUILDING THE INTELLIGENT OPERATIONS OF TOMORROW

Currently piloted at Sindesar Khurd Mine, this modular, original equipment manufacturer independent solution improves situational awareness and reduces vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-person interaction risks.

It follows a layered, fail-safe approach by combining multiple sensing and communication technologies to enable reliable proximity detection and timely operator & pedestrian warnings as visual and audible alerts.

Deployed an AI-based thermal and optical monitoring application that continuously scans critical high-load switchyard equipment. It enables real-time hotspot detection using infrared and optical feed, raises automated equipment-specific alerts along with tiered-criticality tagging and structured escalation of temperature anomalies.

Implemented for sinter machine operations, this system enables real-time, intelligent monitoring of pallet grate bar condition, enabling early identification of abnormal situations and timely process intervention.

Seamlessly integrated with the plant control architecture, it supports condition-based maintenance, prevents grate bar-related unplanned stoppages, and strengthens the reliability of sinter operations.

Deployed an advanced computer vision system to monitor cellhouse areas where personnel work in proximity to moving cranes during activities such as manual cell cleaning.

It automatically interlocks with the crane to halt movement whenever a person enters the defined risk area.

Implemented an AI vision-based analytics solution at the crusher and silo in Rampura Agucha Mine.

The system continuously analyses rock size distribution and identifies oversized boulders or foreign objects before they enter the crushing circuit.

Deployed a LoRaWAN-enabled wireless pressure monitoring system at the drilling water pressure reducing stations (PRS) in Sindesar Khurd Mine (SKM).

The system transmits pressure data to cloud-based dashboards in real-time, providing continuous visibility of PRS performance for early detection of fluctuations, faster issue resolution, and improved accuracy in monitoring drilling water availability.

Implemented tele-remote operation technology for rock breaking at Rampura Agucha Mine and drilling in high-temperature environments at Rajpura Dariba Mines. It enables controlling these operations from a safe, ergonomically-designed remote station using high-definition cameras, real-time video streaming, and integrated control systems.

This ensures operator safety by removing them from high-risk underground zones, while improving operational continuity by enabling higher productivity and reducing equipment idle time.

Strengthened digital process visibility in our zinc jumbo cellhouses through individual cell outlet temperature monitoring. It helps detect abnormal thermal behaviour from low electrolyte flow, uneven operating conditions, localised hot/cold spots, and dendrite- or shorting-related disturbances.
