REMOTE CONTROL EQUIPMENT

Operator safety & the requirement for increased mobile equipment productivity have changed the focus of traditional mining techniques & methods. By working closely with our clients, GM Mining Electrics have developed 'TELECAM' tele-remote control systems.

These systems vary in configuration from machine to machine & are designed to replicate the vehicles operator's cabin as close as practicable; thus reducing operator confusion from manual to remote operation.

Each system can be tailored to our suit clients' specific requirements.

'TELECAM' tele-remote control systems are comprised of several different components:

HBC radio remote control system

The HBC FST-735 & FST-770 radio remote control systems are fully proportional radio systems capable of controlling mobile mining equipment such as LHD loaders (boggers), skid steer loaders, drill rigs, dozers, excavators, cranes, rock breakers and trucks.  The HBC radio systems have built their reputation as being a durable & adaptable system that has proven itself within the Australian mining industry. This system meets all mines department & Australian regulations & has a dual failsafe emergency stop system. Other features consist of:

Transmitter

  • Compact, lightweight & rugged construction
  • IP65 enclosure protection
  • Large robust joysticks
  • 'Deadman' service brake application
  • Fully sealed switches
  • 'Plug in' battery pack
  • Battery indication LED & audible alarm
  • TX tilt protection
  • Rigid shoulder harness or belt clip mounts

Receiver

  • Machined die-cast aluminium construction
  • IP65 enclosure protection
  • LED status indication lights
  • High quality multi-pole electrical connector
  • Receiver outputs available include digital, analogue, PWM, DDEC, Danfoss

Batteries

  • 2 high capacity Ni-MH (nickel metal hydrate) rechargeable batteries.  Each battery provides enough operating time to cover a shift of operation - typically 12 hours
  • Single station battery charger with LED indication to show the state of the batteries

Drill Rig Remote Control System

The remote control system that GM Mining Electrics have designed to operate the latest generation of drilling rigs is in our opinion state of the art.  This system is versatile, adaptable, & expandable & it meets all of the current remote control regulations & Australian standards.  This system features the following characteristics:

  • Failsafe design
  • Disparity checking
  • Digital & analogue inputs & outputs
  • Programmable

Tele-Remote Control Operators Station

There are various styles of operators stations currently available.  These include:

  • Purpose built portable cabin
  • Mobile vehicle
  • Control room - located on the surface or underground
  • Portable suitcase

Each operator's station (except the portable suitcase) is equipped with an operator's chair, 2 x LCD's, audio & machine fault feedback & air-conditioning.  Each station is purpose built & can be manufactured to suit a clients requirements.
The stations are connected to the area in which the machine is operational via an independent communication system, which is designed for each individual work area by our fully trained staff.
