Yard Automation System for SA mine

RailComm and ERB Technologies have provided a yard automation system at South Africa's Kumba Iron Ore's Sishen South Mine, according to a RailComm press release. The automation system is composed of RailComm's Domain Operations Controller (DOC) server-based central control system and four associated outdoor-rated control panels.

The system utilises data radios to communicate between the office system, the control panels, and a network of power switches. In addition, a universal switch controller allows customers to use any power switch machine on the market.

"The RailComm Yard Automation System has been proven to dramatically increase yard safety and measurably improve yard dwell time and yard throughput," says RailComm Chief Business Strategy Officer Sean Gleeson, adding that the software-based DOC control system is an advanced command, control, communications, and information (C3i) server-based platform. DOC supports a wide variety of integrated solutions for indication, control, access, and distribution of critical operational data across the corporate enterprise, Gleeson says.
