Operational Control of the Feed of the Harvester

Abstract

Comparison of normative and actual indicators on mining testifies to inefficient work of the excavating equipment. The results of the correlation analysis of the speed of movement of the harvester relative to the section of the support with the readings of methane sensors revealed a significant dependence. When conducting mining operations in complex geological conditions at great depths, a joint step-by-step carrying out of various technological processes is required to ensure the preparation, opening and excavation of reserves and the creation of safe conditions for mining coal seams. At the same time, efforts should be made to minimize time, human and energy resources. In this regard, of particular importance is the right choice of the program of operational management of technological processes of mining, monitoring the implementation of technological operations for the timely detection of deviations from the selected mode, adjustment of the established current modes of operation of technological processes and the development, if necessary, measures aimed at reducing the risks of accidents. A promising direction of solving this problem is the use of modeling methods. The developed models of technological processes of the mining enterprise will allow planning production and supporting decision-making in the implementation of operational management.
