Future Mobile Work Machine exhibitor: Sandvik

SIX Mobile Work Machine partner and upcoming Future Mobile Work Machine (FMWM) event exhibitor Sandvik is a global, high-tech engineering group providing solutions that enhance productivity, profitability and sustainability for the manufacturing, mining and infrastructure industries.

The AutoMine® Concept Underground Drill is a fully autonomous, twin-boom development drill rig capable of drilling without human interaction. The cabinless battery-electric drill can plan and execute the entire drilling cycle from tramming to the face, setting up for drilling, drilling the pattern and returning home to charge for the next cycle. The fully functional AutoMine® Concept Underground Drill showcases next-generation intelligent automation, plus other new technologies and features that will be introduced for current and future Sandvik offerings.

Sandvik is bringing to the FMWM event its AutoMine® Concept Underground Drill "Amelia", and its control room, which will be a part of the Innovation Development Highlights during the expo.

Jani Vilenius (Director, Technology Development and Services) will also speak during The SIX Mobile Work Machines Roadmap presentation.

“We chose a development drill as our next Concept Vehicle to demonstrate that autonomy can also work effectively in a mine’s development phase, in constantly changing environments.” said David Hallett, Vice President, Automation at Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions.
