Automatic Mineral Filling System

Challenge

In mines, collected minerals need to be loaded into mine cars. Traditionally, this part of the work needs to be done manually by operators.

However, mine operations have the following characteristics :
24-hour operation : Mines need to operate 24 hours a day to ensure production efficiency.

Harsh working environment : The mine environment is usually dusty and noisy, which poses a threat to the health and safety of operators.

Complex operation process : The mineral filling operation requires close monitoring by the operator and adjustment according to the on-site situation. The workload is large and easy to make mistakes.

Therefore, mine operations have the following requirements :
Improve operational efficiency : Reduce the workload of operators and improve the efficiency of mineral filling operations.

Reduce operating costs : Reduce the reliance on operators and reduce labor costs.

Improve operational safety : Reduce the working time of operators in harsh environments and reduce safety risks.
 

Solution

Our QDEEP SDK provides functions such as mine car detection, mineral sand segmentation, and mine car number recognition to analyze the on-site situation and record it as a video for subsequent playback and viewing.
After the software obtains the AI detection results, it performs the corresponding PLC control to control the mine car and the mineral hopper to create a fully automatic mineral filling system.
