I-MOST Overview
While traditional methods of monitoring are well established in the mining industry, these methods are not necessarily suited for the new world of business imperatives. IMost aims to tailor to this new world with:
increased plant availability,
reduced environmental impact,
lower operating costs,
reduced labor resources,
and increased “green” credentials.
IMost, or Integrated Monitoring Optimization Support Technologies, allows stakeholders to operationalize their equipment data in order to optimize its performance and efficiencies through valuable insights. This allows you to maintain a competitive edge while simultaneously keeping up with the fast paced world and the technological advancements that come with it.
Features
The system currently integrates directly onto any control system and maps any available parameters through secure protocols to a centralized database in the cloud. A single piece of hardware with minimal space requirements is required.
As an example on one product range ie compression crushers, IMOST is able to monitor the following condition aspects:
- Gap Calibration Monitoring
- Hydraulic System Health
- Crusher Heat Generation
