analysis concerns
Common Analysis Problems
- Poor data integrity
- Conflicting spreadsheets
- Poor KPI visibility
- Late reports
- Islands of information
- Information overload
- Manual download of health data
- Sensor malfunction
Our Solution
- Post-validation of production data can be extremely complicated, and data conflicts can be difficult to diagnose. The DISPATCH and ProVision systems continuously detect anomalous production data in real time, warning control room operators and prompting for immediate resolution.
- Multiple, conflicting data sources can lead to confusion due to inaccurate reporting. IntelliMine products utilize Microsoft® SQL Server databases that are updated in real time, providing a single, central data source for all your reporting.
- Without consistent feedback, operators are unable to improve their performance. Real-time key performance indicators continuously provide operators, supervisors and management with the outcome of their operating practices and equipment allocation decisions.
- Late reports undermine your efforts toward continuous improvement. IntelliMine products provide real-time web reporting and database access, allowing either scheduled or ad hoc analysis of production statistics.
- Data exchange inefficiencies between departments and even mine sites cost significant time and money. Modular utilizes Microsoft® SQL Server Integration Services, providing a robust, open platform for sharing information between your Processing Plant, Maintenance, Mine Palling, or ERP systems.
- Without summarizing extensive data into manageable information, critical problems are easily overlooked. The PowerView reporting system summarizes your data by fleet, location and crew, and utilizes multidimensional data structures (OLAP cubes) to provide drill-down data analysis.
- When equipment is removed from service to manually download data, unnecessary downtime and potential safety hazards result. By accessing and monitoring equipment remotely in real time, equipment remains in service while maintenance personnel access health data from the safety of their desk.
- Malfunctioning sensors can lead to nuisance alarms and operator desensitization. The MineCare system groups repetitive alarms, allowing maintenance dispatchers to quickly differentiate between real alarms and sensor malfunctions.
