Equipment Monitoring System that’s invaluable for the Mining Industry

Today, a leading firmware development company that’s based in India has developed an equipment monitoring system for the health industry. The system is a must for the client. They wanted a solution that perform analysis as well as interpret mining information and data that’s obtained from various equipment, monitor working condition of the equipment and minimizing breakdowns.

The key challenges in the implementation of the system include the following:

1. Calculation of equipment faults from running average of dynamic addition and trends for very model of mining trucks.

2. Status aggregation from raw data that’s obtained from mine equipment was very difficult and cumbersome to implement.

3. Process system automating, switching from operation to operation after a predefined time interval.

The software development strategies or solutions that the outsourcing software development service provider in India proved to be extremely useful. It monitored the health status of various mining equipment pieces. The equipment monitoring system development was carried out in the following phases.

PHASE 1: The web app monitoring system is created to monitor health of the equipment in minds, such as Dozers, Haul Trucks, Shovels, Excavators and others. The web display overall status of the fleet and enables drill down to see status of equipment, which include status of various components, like Breaks, Engine, etc.

PHASE 2: The web interface was developed with integrated long wall monitoring with present design and information reported, such as the health status of equipment.

PHASE 3: System enhancements that included display method changes, database changes, calculations on raw results data for display, recommended actions to solve faults, fault measurement and more.

PHASE 4: Design improvements, standardization and optimization.

The aim of the phased development of the system was to integrate the requirement of the client of getting feedback from the system users and accordingly perform changes in the system’s previous version.

THE FEATURES OF THE EQUIPMENT MONITORING SYSTEM

1. Automate process of operations switching and various equipment pieces.

2. Huge volumes of process information is gathered, archived, retrieved and distributed at high speeds with powerful Proficy Historian tool, which provides data security and compression.

3. Monitor present working condition of various equipment and their parts.

4. Recommended actions for tracking and fixing faults.

5. Report and graph, which offers comparison with various truck models across different time window.

The Microsoft software development tools and technology used are Microsoft ASP.NET, C#, Microsoft SQL Server, external components or tools such as .NET Charting, Proficy Historian and Highcharts.
