GREENVILLE, S.C., Oct. 01, 2024 – Mines, by their very nature, are unforgiving environments that require robust machinery and the utmost effort from both equipment and crews. This is particularly true for haul roads that are in constant use.

These roads impact vehicle downtime, and manually managing them can hinder operational efficiency. Developed in collaboration with three mines around the world, MICHELIN BETTER HAUL ROAD is a digital solution designed to enhance safety and efficiency in mining operations.

The importance of well-maintained haul roads cannot be overstated. MICHELIN BETTER HAUL ROAD provides a solution that allows mine managers to keep a close eye on these critical infrastructures. By monitoring haul roads in real time, operators can swiftly identify incidents such as debris or road damage that may arise. The system then allows them to register the issue within the app or through dispatch with the web, track its status via the app or web, and efficiently assign a repair team to address and resolve the problem.

“With MICHELIN BETTER HAUL ROAD, mine operators gain peace of mind through improved safety, prioritized actions, and streamlined team coordination, driving better haul road conditions,” said Christel Dubus, Head of Mining Digital Services for Michelin. “With features that allow for task prioritization and seamless follow-up for teams or contractors, as well as improved operator recognition, it supports the continuous evolution of a mine’s pit and its goal of achieving higher speed and production with lower energy consumption and improved haul road quality.”

MICHELIN BETTER HAUL ROAD allows prioritization of data-driven actions and supports a mine’s constant pit evolution with cleaner haul road conditions.

“This proactive approach to haul-road management ensures that any issues are quickly resolved, minimizing downtime and maintaining the flow of operations while considering opportunities to reduce fuel and energy consumption,” said Dubus. “By continuously monitoring haul-road conditions, MICHELIN BETTER HAUL ROAD helps ensure the longevity and reliability of these crucial transportation routes, ultimately supporting the overall efficiency and safety of mining activities.”
