New eBook from TOMRA Mining

T omra Mining has made available a new, free-to-download publication that outlines the different ways today’s advanced digital sorting data services can help mining operations stay in control. According to Tomra Mining, the digitalisation of sorting-related services is opening up a world of new possibilities. The new e-book, titled ‘The Benefits of Data-driven Quality Control’, focuses

on how to efficiently produce high-quality product with maximum control and minimum waste. “From a quality management perspective, every sensor in the sorters is a valuable source of information about the products that pass through them. Today’s sorting data services turn sorters into connected devices and provide a secure, near-live monitor ing dashboard for the mine’s sorting lines. Mining processors are able to continuously monitor and optimise the sorting line’s output quality. On-site observation, manual sampling and time-consuming reporting and communication become a thing of the past: the sorter itself provides a constant feed of information based on continuous product sampling on every object,” the company said. Automatically recorded, remotely accessible, data sets are avail able on any computer or mobile device, easily accessible by all members of the team. Managers can monitor remotely distant or difficult-to-reach mining sites from their offices, enabling them to make operational and business decisions based on experience and hard facts, also comparing and benchmarking data from dif ferent sites. All these features enable mineral processors to optimise their decision-making and efficiency, ultimately increasing the profit ability of their operations. These benefits are accessible through TOMRA Insight, the cloud-based data platform available to TOMRA machine users as a subscription-based service. 
