Advanced Control Room
Advanced Control Room
Overview
Gain a bird’s eye view of process plant operations with effective data visualization technology.
Advanced control rooms provide real-time data from various sensors and monitoring devices throughout a plant, offering mine operators an overarching view of all processes. By monitoring KPIs and process variables in real-time, they can quickly identify bottlenecks, deviations, and inefficiencies promptly, enabling quick decision-making and adjustments to optimize plant performance.
Some advanced control rooms even enable remote operation and control of equipment. This is particularly valuable for remote or hazardous locations, as it reduces the need for on-site personnel and minimizes risks associated with manual intervention.
However, integrating data from various sensors, equipment, and systems into a centralized control room can be complex. Different data sources may use different formats, protocols, and communication standards, leading to challenges in ensuring seamless data integration.
Key Client Challenges:
- What are the key benefits of implementing an advanced control room for our processing and mining operations?
- How can we ensure that the advanced control room aligns with our overall operational goals and strategy?
- What are the essential technologies and systems needed for an effective advanced control room setup?
- How can we integrate existing legacy systems with new advanced control room technologies?
- What are the best practices for data integration from various sources into the control room environment?
- What cybersecurity measures should we put in place to protect our advanced control room and mining operations from cyber threats?
The transition from a traditional to advanced control room which leverages data analytics can lead to a cultural shift in how work is managed and executed. Traditional roles and responsibilities might change, and adapting to the new dynamics can be challenging for employees. Mining operators need to ensure that staff are adequately trained to handle the new technology and effectively respond to different scenarios.
Our experts at Unison Mining specialize in working with mining companies to assist in developing the processes, feedback systems and performance metrics needed to gain employee buy-in and address resistance to new technology, for sustainable, lasting impact.
