ELEVATING SAFETY AND PRODUCTIVITY
ELEVATING SAFETY AND PRODUCTIVITY
iPosition serves as indurad’s comprehensive platform solution for enhancing safety, positioning accuracy, and automation in mobile continuous mining equipment, including in-pit crushing and conveying systems, leach pad automation systems, and more.
The solution is carefully designed to concurrently improve both safety and productivity, achieved through the integration of various sensor technologies, including 2D radar sensors, RTLS and GPS.
By fusing these three distinct technologies, a 2oo3 fail operation mode is achieved, boasting an impressive availability rate of 99.9%.
With successful installations across Mongolia, Brazil, Germany, and Chile, the system consistently demonstrates its effectiveness and reliability. Notably, certain systems in Germany have been in continuous operation for more than a decade.

iPOSITION MOST TRUSTED SOLUTION
“We started with indurad´s 2D radar on the suspended hopper cars and based on the high availability of the manless-automation mode we have been rolling out the concept on the travelling hopper cars and on the spreader side where we replaced existing laser solutions providing now a better machine availability.
Finally, we reduced wear on the machinery as of reducing steering commands of about 20%"
