Eine Plattform für die Wissenschaft: Bauingenieurwesen, Architektur und Urbanistik
If there's such a thing as a common denominator in a widely diversified, global industry like mining, it most likely would be a universal interest in cutting costs-and in recent years, the meaning of "costs" has expanded from a simple dollars-and-cents calculation to include less easily quantifiable expenses such as a mine's carbon footprint, its impact on local power, water and other possibly scarce resources, and its responsibility to minimize mining-related social, cultural and physical disruptions. Conveyor systems, in a way, are relative newcomers to the industry's typical capital-cost considerations when planning a mine. They've been an important part of both surface and underground mining for decades-but they've often been regarded as commodity-type parts and pieces that don't warrant the attention paid to primary production equipment such as trucks, shovels and loaders, for example. Thus, it is critical to ensure the proper conveyor system solution is sized and installed. The system is optimized for the application during early site development or application development.
