In typical mining plants, all the productions related measurements are communicated manually via phone, e-mail and log book. Key business drivers in the recurring and asset concentrated resources industry are reduction in power and fuel costs, supply chain efficiencies and equipment longevity. However, recent advances in computing, communication, sensing & control technologies has changed the scenario in the current automation landscape and is providing significant benefits in terms of improving the overall efficiencies. To enhance the production operations its necessary to connect the plant floor with the enterprise level that will give real time plant information. Few departments always received a mismatch on tonnage figure given by mines and coal and there were many data communication gaps between the divisions of the same Group. Every department maintains data on his/her own system; having no common platform of data source. To meet these challenges metals & mining industry has successfully deployed industrial automation technologies like distributed control systems (DCS) and have reaped the benefits of enhanced safety, productivity, quality and reliability.
