Tackling Complex Challenges
In major underground mine automation initiatives,
C-CORE plays a key role in the advancement of mining
technologies. In the last five years, we have provided
innovative engineering R&D solutions for some of the most
complex challenges faced by the Canadian mining industry. Our
work in automating complex underground mining processes has
earned us a reputation for solving tough engineering problems,
and has facilitated our expansion into other areas of mining,
such as surface mining.
Improving Results with New Technologies
Since 1997, C-CORE has developed a range of technologies to improve the efficiency, performance and competitiveness of our mining partners. These include:
- Automation of mining processes
- Advanced vision systems for process control
- Intelligent sensing for automation and assessing operating environments
- Innovative robotics and telerobotics for automating processess and improving efficiency
New technologies for surface mining will include:
- Remote sensing for subsidence monitoring
- Control systems for processing
Delivering Solutions
C-CORE employees have exceptional backgrounds in
mine engineering, as well as in complementary engineering
disciplines such as mechanical, electrical and civil. Not only
do they understand the technical aspects of this sector, they
also have first hand knowledge of the operating environments
faced by mining companies.
C-CORE works as part of an integrated team with clients and partners to capitalize on the strength of all team members. In addition to enhancing the engineering solution, this approach also minimizes the cost of technology development and enables all to share project risks.
