decide on services and products, which
can increase their efficiency and thus
improve their profitability. At the fair,
Scania Site Optimisation will be
showcased in a control tower container.
“Scania Site Optimisation is a
framework of tools and methods which
identifies inefficiencies in logistical
flows,” explains Winblad. “We are able
to find and target bottlenecks in those
flows using information relayed to us
from communication units in each
vehicle. That helps us map the flow in
the mine – such as where the trucks load and
unload – and provides us with data that we can
analyse.
“Based on our analysis, we can provide the
customer with a choice of services, products and
actions to help them improve efficiency. We believe
that Scania Site Optimisation could have a huge
positive impact on a mining operator’s bottom line.”
Scania Site Optimisation measures and
evaluates production performance factors in five
aspects, all of which are issues commonly faced
by the mining industry:
n Time (e.g. cycle time, uptime, queues of
trucks, etc.)
n Road (e.g. route design, maintenance issues,
etc.)
n Load (e.g. equipment matching, overloading,
spilling, etc.)
n Safety (e.g. overspeeding, etc.)
n Sustainability (e.g. fuel consumption,
emissions, etc.).
Customers can then choose from a full range
of solutions according to their individual needs,
whether it be data reporting, advisory services,
improvement services, or even the outsourcing of
the management of parts of their whole transport
operation to Scania.
Also on display at the Scania stand are a range
of fuel-efficient engines for use in equipment,
such as screening devices, crushers and gensets.
Scania’s modular system allows for tailoring
equipment to any application, including mining
operations, using a limited number of wellproven components. This, in turn, gives swift and
reliable access to parts and service.

as long haulage transport and bus
transport, and can bring that to bear
in the mining industry. Our modular
approach means that the services
already exist to fill the briefcase
with,” Winblad says.
Scania’s stand also features a
mobile workshop that could be put
into operation at any site and gives
access to professional service also in
remote areas. The mobile workshop
is a flexible alternative to a
permanent workshop. It is included
in a standard container with necessary
equipment such as tools and compressors
attached to it.
Though not being showcased at the fair,
Scania also has two other exciting areas of work
in the pipeline. Autonomous transport solutions
and the greater earning ability of Scania’s new
performance steps for heavier vehicle payloads
are just two further signs of ongoing commitment
to profitability and sustainability.
ThoroughTec Simulation says it will be
“breaking new ground” at MINExpo with “plans
to reveal a number of exciting new products that
emphasise its commitment to providing mines
with the most powerful workforce performance
development technologies available on the
market.”
