ABB Robot Charger For Remote Blasting At The Rock Face in Underground Mining

ABB, Boliden and LKAB have completed successful testing of an industry-first automated robot charger for increased safety in underground mines. The ABB Robot Charger detects drilled holes in a rock face and installs explosive charges during mining operations, removing the need for human presence. This development removes the need for human intervention in this phase of underground mining, making mining safer.
