Mining operations depend on stockyard systems that deliver reliable storage, blending, and reclaiming under demanding conditions. With proven global references, tailored engineering, and lifecycle support, TAKRAF Group helps operators improve safety, efficiency, and long-term performance through resilient stockyard technologies.
Explore how mining operators can improve energy visibility, reduce cost per tonne, and build a credible decarbonisation path – in Yokogawa's new eBook, Beyond Compliance: Lower Operating Costs Through Energy Efficiency.
Mining operations across the globe face severe environmental and technical challenges. Extreme temperatures, humidity, dust, abrasive slurries, and corrosive atmospheres place continuous strain on equipment.
SourceOne® EKPS, developed by Eclipse Data Innovations, introduces a Machine User Interface (MUI) that delivers AI-driven analytics directly to operational users. The system enables predictive and prescriptive modelling in minutes, reduces implementation barriers, and embeds agentic AI into daily workflows - signalling a broader shift toward scalable human-machine collaboration.
As mining operations enter a new year, maintenance planning is once again in focus. With uptime directly tied to productivity and profitability, proactive approaches to equipment reliability are essential. One area that often warrants renewed attention is backstop performance a critical safeguard in conveying where failure can lead to costly downtime and safety risks.
