Now more than ever, mining and mineral processing companies need to boost productivity, ensure safety, and protect the environment. ABB’s comprehensive electrification, automation, and digital solutions portfolio is ideally positioned to meet these challenges across all mining processes, from mine to port, transforming performance in a digital world.
ABB Ability™ MineOptimize is a powerful framework that integrates individual mining solutions, delivering a seamless, plant-wide system that enhances efficiency and reliability throughout the entire lifecycle. “Engaging early with ABB provides immediate access to experienced engineers who specialise in designing, managing, manufacturing, installing, and commissioning perfectly optimized brownfield or greenfield projects. The earlier you engage with ABB, the greater the improvement in total cost of ownership throughout the project,” explains Martin van Zyl, Sales Manager, Process Industries, ABB.
ABB ensures that the correct technology is selected to meet each unique solution’s needs. Technical optimisation throughout the entire plant can yield cost savings of up to 25% while reducing overall project time. By applying vertically integrated solutions across the plant, ABB enables plant-wide standardization, allowing a single management interface that coordinates third-party equipment while integrating electrical, automation, and digital applications. This reduces human error, minimises project risks, cuts labour costs, and decreases time overruns.
Optimised solutions are built on ABB’s infrastructure, including electrification, drives, and automation solution blocks. ABB’s digital technology experts further enhance these solutions through the ABB Ability™ suite of applications, delivering sustainable profitability and full visibility over mining operations to ensure that the right people have the right information at the right time.
Collaborative services connect ABB specialists with in-house teams, either remotely or on-site and in real time, offering support ranging from remote assistance to predictive maintenance and performance optimization. With decades of experience and a global installed base of over a thousand projects, from mine hoist systems to mineral processing plants, ABB Ability™ MineOptimize is a unique, framework designed to make your entire process function as a cohesive system.
