Pronto and Heidelberg Materials North America have announced plans to deploy Pronto’s autonomous haulage system (AHS) at Heidelberg Materials’ Lake Bridgeport Quarry in Texas.
This announcement follows the successful pilot of Pronto’s technology at Heidelberg Materials’ Bridgeport Quarry in 2023, which was conducted in partnership with Komatsu North America. The next phase of this pilot will also be on a Komatsu platform, and will include the integration of Komatsu Smart Quarry technologies. This will enable enhanced data collection and analysis, as well as improved safety and productivity.
Pronto’s AHS is a cost-effective solution to addressing the challenge of recruiting skilled operatives, while also increasing the utilisation of haul truck assets. The AHS leverages advanced sensors, cameras, and artificial intelligence to autonomously operate haul trucks in complex and dynamic environments.
Heidelberg Materials and Pronto are committed to leading the industry into a new era of efficiency, safety, and environmental responsibility through the deployment of this innovative technology.
