Automation
Solutions for mining and processing plants From mine to consumer Opportunity to increase productivity at low cost
Mining operations in remote areas face many challenges, such as exploration, mining, and development, ensuring reliable and uninterrupted operations, volatile commodity prices, and meeting high standards for workers' health, safety, and the environment.
Modern advances in energy automation and energy-efficient solutions can help overcome these.
Energy Savings
Mining companies are planning to use as much renewable energy as possible in order to reduce their operating costs and meet new environmental requirements. Energy consumption in mining and processing operations depends on the quality and composition of the ore. The power supply and equipment requirements for underground mines are different from those for open-pit mines. Aibo Investment LLC offers products and solutions suitable for open pit and underground mining.
The use of energy-efficient devices plays an important role in reducing production costs. However, such changes should not affect product quality or productivity. Aibo Investment's production automation control and management system offer optimal performance solutions that minimize environmental impact, use the least amount of energy, and maximize production efficiency.
The first time an electric motor is started, it requires 3-7 times more power than normal. Also, in most cases, the engine is selected with a spare load, as we usually say, higher than the normal load. Frequency converters are used to flexibly control motors for high ignition currents and variable flow applications. In addition to energy savings, this brings many benefits to consumers, such as lower investment costs, reduced equipment wear and tear, and reduced packaging time in the power grid.
With the increase in capacity tariffs for mining consumers, a solution to reduce energy costs (flexible management) is available, as mentioned above.
Increase productivity and improve reliability
The use of integrated production process control and management systems, including power supply, electric drives, and measuring equipment, in mining and processing operations, not only improves overall operational efficiency but also increases reliability.
An industrial automation system must be able to manage process and business information to meet new goals and plans set by management. More detailed information is a key factor in increasing productivity.

Health, safety and the environment (OSH and environmental impact)
The regulations and requirements for the mining and minerals sector and the environment are becoming more stringent from year to year. In particular, environmental requirements are becoming more stringent. The stricter the requirements and regulations, the greater the cost of recycling, disposal, control, and management of waste.
The equipment and solutions offered by Aibo Investment meet the highest requirements of the CBS and are constantly improving and developing in this area. Environmental measurement, monitoring, and automation of production processes will increase operational efficiency, as well as better environmental impact and safety.

Over the last 50 years, more than 1,000 large mining machines and equipment have been proven to be able to withstand extreme conditions during open-pit mining, where dust, high vibrations, and ambient temperatures range from -50 ° C to + 50 ° C.
The standard AC converter (multi-drive multi-drive) improves the mechanical design of the installation, making it more suitable for use in the mining industry. Furthermore, our specialists have developed special frequency converter software for all mining equipment, which allows us to distribute load-sharing loads for multi-drive applications and ensure safety in all types of operating modes. We have also developed a fully automated stockpile storage system that includes mineral transportation, quality control and management systems, and GPS-based mobile equipment management.

Integrated mine operations and remote control room
Mining operations are constantly striving to increase production, improve profitability and reduce operational risk. To do this, we need to optimize operations throughout the plant. Unfortunately, multi-faceted, geographically diverse, or organizational structures may hinder the improvement of business operations.
To improve the performance of their organizations and increase their value, companies need to introduce operational management software/platforms. This optimizes the process information from the production to the market and the organizational structure.
With the help of this integrated system offered by Aibo Investment, you can monitor and manage production processes, productivity management, operational planning, improvements, manpower and asset management, and head office or corporate operations.
Simply put, “Internet of Things” does not necessarily bring a high-capacity, high-tech mill operator to a concentrator 500 km from Ulaanbaatar, but a Cloud Base from a specialist on the other side of the world when needed. Direct access to online technical support using technologies such as virtual reality (VR), and the use of these solutions in projects during the global COVID-19 coronavirus epidemic
We know that there are many mines that use technology from 30 years ago due to a lack of capital, finance, and human resources. It is true that these companies need more time to implement technological advances, in other words, they are lagging behind.
Rehabilitation work
Upgrading an existing plant to the latest standards, production, and efficiency over its life will require a completely different skill set than building a new plant.
The complexity of each renovation project is a major challenge for plant operators. The upgrade project will only be successful if the contractor fully understands the complexity of the mining and processing operations in accordance with the mine's strictly planned idle schedule.
