Atten[2] technology in mining trucks

[BACKGROUND]

Maintenance costs in the mining industry are usually between 30-50% of total operating costs. - Topal and Ramazan, 2010

This is why the best maintenance professionals in the sector are committed to advanced maintenance solutions, such as Atten[2] sensors.

At a coal mine in Colombia*, an advanced microfiltration monitoring solution was implemented for truck hydraulic system contamination control optimization.

[CHALLENGES]

Monitor key productivity assets, increasing short- and long-term productivity

Provide accurate data for early decision making

Avoid unscheduled downtime

Optimize scheduled shutdowns, acting effectively upon failure

Robust technologies for earth-moving equipment and extreme environmental conditions. Providing accurate data even in high vibration environments.

[SOLUTION]

In this instance, OilWear 2.0 sensors were deployed within the auxiliary circuits responsible for filtering the hydraulic systems used in the braking and lifting operations of trucks. Real-time monitoring and presentation of ISO code data, along with immediate particle shape classification, facilitated prompt and informed decision-making.

Particle counting ISO 4406 and NAS 1638

Oil degradation

Air bubble detection and discrimination

Wear mode shape analysis

Image storage

[RESULTS]

By implementing a high-efficiency filter and utilizing the OilWear2.0 sensor to monitor the machine's performance, the customer witnessed a fourfold increase in the hydraulic system's lifecycle

STATUS	ISO4406
Before filtration	22/17/14
After filtration	20/16/13
