Wireless Operations for Safety and Precision!

Mining environments present specific risks and difficulties. AGILE offers communications solutions using public or private 5G or LTE networks to address these operational challenges.

AGILE offers a neutral and secure communications system that enables wireless management across your entire operation.

Wireless

Enable fully wireless operations for both surface and sub-surface mining, effectively addressing the difficulties associated with sequential detonation.

Always Connected

The device integrates multiple communication features, including 5G, LTE, Wi-Fi, MMS, SMS, voice calling, real-time video, and GPS, which can operate even in areas with limited connectivity.

Remote Operations

Real-time analytics are collected, consolidated, and communicated to the command center. Remote detonation functionality enables coverage of a broader area.
Communication tools within the mining and blasting sectors have traditionally been limited due to the reliance on wired connections for detonation devices, which are susceptible to signal interference and physical damage. AGILE’s CORE introduces a secure, device-agnostic communications hub that enables wireless connectivity—utilizing Wi-Fi, cellular, or satellite networks—to establish a robust mesh network and significantly extend operational capabilities. This innovation facilitates enhanced optimization of display interfaces, streamlines development processes, and promotes greater safety and accuracy throughout projects. Communication is now possible in previously inaccessible zones, while real-time analytics are compiled from collected data, disseminated, and reported to the command center. These timely updates support ongoing improvements to blast modelling and future operations.

CAPABILITIES

 

  • Wireless operation capability addresses safety, cost efficiency, security, and productivity optimization concerns.

  • Blasting devices utilize a wireless mesh network, allowing precision and efficient use without the need for personnel to be nearby; all controls are managed from the command center.

  • Remote detonation is possible, allowing coverage of larger areas.

  • Reduced man-power requirements contribute to company cost savings.

  • Devices feature options for two or four cellular 5G LTE radios with corresponding SIM cards.

  • Connectivity is maintained across areas without dead zones, supporting both 5G and LTE connections.

 

  • Equipment is ruggedized for durability in extreme weather conditions, suitable for both surface and sub-surface mining environments.

  • Real-time video and analytics are compiled, shared, and reported back to the command center.

  • Wireless operation enables faster set-up times.

  • GPS and Real-time Kinematics (RTK) provide millimeter-level forecasting for operational accuracy.

  • Encryption to CORE ensures safety and security, making compromise unlikely.

  • Access controls are managed remotely by the command center, determining permissions and restrictions.
