Sandvik Mining has expanded the capabilities of the Newtrax Mining Data Platform (MDP) by introducing Newtrax Control Room Editor, a new feature designed to provide mines with seamless manual data management, even in offline environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This technology enables users to create, update and delete data without network connectivity, ensuring continuous and reliable access to crucial information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Newtrax Control Room Editor strengthens data validation by comparing manually entered data with automatically collected telemetry, reducing information gaps and enhancing confidence in decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cWe have developed the Newtrax Control Room Editor in close collaboration with our customers, to ensure that their operations remain data-driven even when connectivity is limited underground,\u201d said Lior Herman, head of Mining Data Platform Automation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBy allowing users to capture and validate data offline, we\u2019re enabling mines to achieve a new level of reliability and accuracy in their data management.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new feature strengthens the Newtrax MDP suite, reinforcing its position as a leading platform for data-driven mining operations. Newtrax Control Room Editor digitizes manual workflows and extends read-and-write capabilities underground, making it possible to update and view asset locations on a 3D map, capture machine health data linked to maintenance actions and connect to any data source through active web forms. These functions are all performed without depending on network availability and ensure that information remains accurate, consistent and actionable across all levels of operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Extensive field tests with a major customer in Southeast Asia have validated the value of this technology. Users were able to maintain complete visibility and control of their operations in low connectivity environments, demonstrating the feature\u2019s ability to increase operational reliability and drive continuous improvement across the mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cInnovation in underground mining is about combining automation with advanced data solutions to enable users to make better use of the data available to them,\u201d said Ville Svensberg, director Global Automation Product Line and R&D. \u201cNewtrax Control Room Editor closes the gap between telemetry and manual input, giving mines the ability to digitize workflows, validate information from multiple sources and maintain accurate asset and equipment records even in challenging connectivity conditions. This ensures that data-driven decision-making remains uninterrupted and reliable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By digitizing manual workflows and enabling offline data capture, Newtrax Control Room Editor reduces reliance on network connectivity while integrating seamlessly into the Newtrax MDP ecosystem. This innovation highlights Sandvik\u2019s continued commitment to delivering reliable, data-centric tools that drive safer, more efficient and more productive mining operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
