Electrification and Automation in Mining

Mining Monthly’s Noel Dyson talks to Damien Williams about two of the biggest topics facing miners, namely electrification and automation.

Auto-mate solutions & implementation manager, Damien Williams, discusses bringing these together.
Damien believes that may bring the best of both those worlds.
To his mind automation will bring the best out of electric vehicles and electrification will make it much easier to automate equipment.
“It’s not really one driving the other or one hindering the other,” he said.
“They are almost symbiotic.”
