Wabtec Collaborates with Hifi to Bring Advanced 传感 and Monitoring Solutions to Mine Operators

威尔默丁，宾夕法尼亚州- 2019年7月8日: Wabtec (纽交所: WAB) announced today that it is collaborating with Calgary-based Hifi Engineering to enhance digital technologies that monitor asset health to predict and prevent failures at mine sites. By incorporating Hifi’s leading-edge fiber optic sensing technologies with Wabtec’s 数字矿山 solutions, mine operators can monitor the integrity of critical pipeline assets used to transport ore more efficiently, 长途跋涉, and through environmentally sensitive areas.

“Our 数字矿山 solutions leverage decades of mining experience, 前沿数据科学, and analytics technology to help miners optimize cost per ton and improve availability and reliability,道格·汉森说, 副总裁兼总经理, 来自Wabtec的数字矿山. “Hifi的合作, mine operators will be able to use advanced analytics and artificial intelligence to monitor their pipeline 系统 and proactively identify threats and potential leaks throughout their operations.”   

“Mine operators are invested in assets, 流程, and 系统 on a massive scale to meet business objectives while managing risk around safety, 金融, 环境事件,史蒂芬·科尔斯说, 总统 & 首席执行官、高清晰. “然而, 数百, 有时成千上万, of assets produce enormous amounts of data that can either keep the operator informed to make smarter decisions or leave the operator vulnerable to blind spots and risks within their mining operation. Our collaboration with Wabtec enables mining operators to increase their equipment piping uptime via proper alerts, 通知, and visualizations based on the data coming from Hifi’s specialized fiber optic’s sensors. 通过融合这两种技术, with real-time information from acoustics, 振动, 应变, 还有其他关键因素, operators can increase their confidence with the production monitoring of their assets and overall operations.”

This combined solution is currently being introduced at a mining site in Latin America across the most critical sections of their pipeline that carries ore, 成浆状, 从矿场到出口码头. 作为手术的重要动脉, assuring pipeline availability while helping to prevent any major environmental impacts is essential. The unique synergy of Hifi’s high fidelity optic sensing solution provides distributed sensing capabilities, while 数字矿山’s condition-based monitoring techniques allow for early detection of abnormalities such as ground movement and compromised pipeline integrity issues like intrusions and leaks. These innovative monitoring technologies will allow mine operations to be more pro-active around maintenance activities and provide increased visibility across this business-critical long-distance pipeline.
