Mine Site Automation & Communication WA 2012: Driving Productivity by Transitioning from Automated Machinery to Autonomous Operations

Now in its sixth installment, Mine Site Automation & Communication WA 2012 will focus on the mining industry’s move towards more integrated autonomous operations. The event will provide delegates with access to leading national and international mining companies who have generated real results and solutions to developing a successful and efficient operation using automated technologies.

Mine Site Automation & Communication WA 2012 conference will examine the immediate need to improve automation of infrastructure servicing the mine. Industry experts will look at the importance of securing wireless communication channels and real-time data to improve systems and processes.

Don’t miss out on this chance to learn about how you can not only increase productivity on your mine site but also improve functional safety.

What Differentiates this Conference from other Mine Site Automation Events ?

  1. We have more case studies presented by Australia’s top mining companies, including Rio Tinto, Barrick Australia, GHD, Macmahon Contractors, Hatch, Crossland Resources – amongst many others.
  2. We have created two specialised streams: one on Automation of Export Infrastructure and the second on Functional Safety to enable you to tailor your conference experience.
  3. We have focused on the importance of real-time data and how you can use this valuable information to improve system processes and current automation technologies.
  4. We have secured expert speakers who will be presenting on wireless communication technologies, the challenges they’ve faced, and how they’ve overcome reliability issues and black spots.
  5. Our program has been reviewed and approved by an industry advisory board to ensure that this event covers the real challenges that you need to hear about.
  6. Our years of experience in this space have helped us develop credibility within the automation and communication community – our audience is well qualified and we facilitate enhanced networking opportunities.
