The Eastern Mining Company has deployed an analytical platform on the Solntsevsky coal mine ZIIoT

2021: Implementation of the ZIIoT Platform

The Eastern Mining Company deployed on the Solntsevsky coal mine the analytical platform ZIIoT developed by the company "Figure," which the latter reported on February 17, 2021. The platform allows you to quickly collect data from all industrial and IT systems, technologies for further construction of analytical scenarios and forecasts. Based on the collected data and machine learning, a system of predictive diagnostics of dump trucks and excavators will be developed.

{{quote 'The unified platform is the next step in the development of the Quarry mining equipment dispatch system, which we launched in 2019, which made it possible to increase equipment productivity by 10%. With the help of the platform, you can begin work with the received operational data: geo-positioning of machines, fuel consumption, wear of tires by the state of the face. In-depth analysis, coupled with machine learning, can provide real-time recommendations regarding not only the optimal route, but also the speed of movement, taking into account the technical condition of the machines, the quality of roads and excavators. That is, launch a proactive business model of production management, "said Stanislav Ploshchenko, Deputy General Director for Business Efficiency of VGK. }}

The implementation of the platform will allow combining HCC production subsystems throughout the value chain and create a single digital layer. The production data pooling approach allows you to focus your business on solving problems with real economic effect, because you do not have to spend a lot of effort on building an architecture for data collection and storage - the platform allows you to collect, store, process big data "from the box." The customer, programmers, analysts focus as much as possible on creating application services based on the platform.

Our ZIIoT platform was specially designed for the digital transformation of industrial enterprises. It provides all the tools you need to implement optimization scenarios with artificial intelligence, advanced analytics, industrial IoT, and cloud solutions. Among the key effects of the implementation of the platform are: an increase in the number and reduction in the cost of finished products, a decrease in the cost of POT, an increase in equipment productivity, as well as savings of up to 50% of the time for planning and organizing production, "said Pavel Rastopshin, Managing Director of Figure.

In the field of information technology, the platform significantly increases the efficiency of using IT resources, reduces the cost of storing and using data. Allows you to create a single user interface framework that allows you to interact with multiple business solutions at the same time and collaborate with employees. In addition, through the platform and open source, VGK ensured the importability of its IT infrastructure, as well as minimized licensing fees. Ensuring the rhythmicity of coal production and movement from the excavator in the section to the balker in the sea is an extremely important task to ensure uninterrupted supply to the end customers, "said Ruslan Karimov, Deputy General Director for IT and Digital Technologies of the Supreme High Command.

VGK implements a large-scale program to introduce innovations into the production process. Together with Digital, the company plans to develop a roadmap for the digitalization of the Solntsevsky coal mine until 2023, including the introduction of technologies such as a smart excavator, as well as robotic dump trucks. In addition to using the digital products of leading vendors, HCC has developed its own application for calculating the optimal amount of leased transport for the transportation of coal during a shift.
