innovative mining advantage

Underground mining is a tough environment to manage. Production plant and equipment often operates independently of surface systems in tough environmental conditions. Key performance indicators are laborious to collate and can be significantly delayed.

At Monduran, we develop innovative solutions that bring the advantages of technology to this environment.

  • We design and build robust modular multi-purpose controllers that operate reliably and safely in hazardous areas, in both stationary and mobile applications
  • We design and build datalogging systems which ensure that events are captured for key performance measurement
  • We design and build copper, wireless and fibre optic communications systems which ensure that underground systems are remotely accessible
  • We design and build web based database systems to make the information accessible and available to authorised users
  • We design and build robust, non-mechanical workstations to give access to authorised users at the workplace
