In the modern mining industry, the optimization and informed decision-making are crucial to ensure the efficiency, safety and sustainability. The dashboards or control panels have become a fundamental tool, to centralize and visualize in real time the key information generated throughout the value chain operational.
How does a dashboard in the mining operation?
A dashboard is a graphical interface that presents the key performance indicators (KPIs) of clear and understandable way. Instead of analyzing spreadsheets, complex, static reports or the famous one-page, the professionals of the mining and plant operators can obtain an instant overview and dynamics of the status of the operation on the site.
These panels are nourished from multiple data sources in real time as sensors are installed in equipment, process control systems, and records of operation.
The information collected is processed and displayed through graphs, gauges, and alerts that allow you to:
Monitor the health of the equipment: Monitor variables such as pressure, temperature or vibration to detect anomalies.
To control the efficiency of processes: View real-time metrics of production, energy consumption and water usage.
To manage the security: Track the location of staff and enable alerts to conditions of risk.
Optimize the supply chain: Evaluate inventory and logistics to avoid bottlenecks.
By consolidating this information, the dashboards allow you to identify patterns, trends, and deviations quickly, facilitating a quick response to any unexpected and improving the strategic planning.
Dashboards and intelligent mining: display the artificial intelligence, with RHEOTHINK
While the dashboards traditional are great for showing what is happening, the true revolution comes when we can anticipate what is going to happen. Here is where a platform like RHEOTHINK of Konatec redefines the concept of data visualization in the mining industry. RHEOTHINK integrates and enhances the capabilities of a dashboard mining through the use of advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Not only displays the real-time data captured by our laboratory in-situ KRHEO, but that uses algorithms predictive for analyzing millions of historical data and to identify the optimum point of operation and prevents aspects as embancamientos.
While a dashboard standard allows you to view the status of your operation, the integration with a technology like RHEOTHINK gives you a digital brain that not only sees, but also learns, predicts and guide their work towards a future that is more cost-effective and sustainable and allows you to:
Anticipating the future: Predicts the behavior of the critical variables of the plant with up to 90 minutes ahead of time, allowing operators to take preventative action, not just corrective. This has meant savings of millions of dollars for various mining operations in periods of time of less than one year.
Provide recommendations experts: Beyond displaying data, the system suggests the operational adjustments accurate (as dosage of flocculant, solid percentage, or range of torque) required to reach maximum efficiency.
To quantify the impact: Shows the projected profit in terms of recovery of mineral and energy resources before implementing any change, by connecting directly the operational decisions with the results of the business.
