Modern underground communication systems are improving safety, productivity and profitability for mining operations. For many years, Becker Mining Systems Group has been committed to providing the best communication, automation and service to the mining sector. Now, with the rise of autonomous vehicles, collision avoidance systems (CAS), Becker has also shifted its attention into this area. They have bundled all these functionalities in the company's proximity detection systems (PDS). These systems are designed to prevent injury and possible loss of life during the operation of mining vehicles in close proximity to mining personnel. Suitable for hard rock mining as well as for coal mining due to its optional flameproof housing, the PDS provides an early indication that alerts the operator to the presence and number of personnel and vehicles in the vehicle's vicinity. The system facilitates bidirectional notification, which warns operators of miners in close proximity. It warns miners of machinery in close proximity and it warns operators of other machinery in close proximity.
