Increasing the efficiency of roadway drivages through the application of advanced information, automation and maintenance technologies

Objective

The proposed research has the target of improving the efficiency of Roadway Drivages, one of the key factors in the productivity of modern high-performance Coal Mines, through the extensive use of the latest advances in Information, Communication, Automation and Maintenance Technologies, applied to:
- Providing on-line support and expert’s diagnostics during large assembly-disassembly works and maintenance activities, using simultaneous video, audio and data transmissions.
- The introduction of novel roof-support and support placement technologies.

It is estimated that the combination of the above technologies will produce a rise of 8-10% in productivity, by increasing operational efficiency and machinery availability.
