Innovation in Mining Safety: Electric Trucks

Implementing good mining safety practices is essential for protecting workers, reducing operational risks, and ensuring the continuity of operations. Safety not only prevents accidents and occupational illnesses but also improves a company’s reputation and ensures compliance with legal regulations—crucial aspects for the success and sustainability of any mining operation.
NewSteel positions itself as a key partner in this effort, offering cutting-edge technology with the transformation of combustion trucks into electric trucks. This innovation not only reduces harmful emissions but also incorporates advanced monitoring and control systems, significantly elevating safety standards in mining operations.

Advanced Safety Features
NewSteel’s trucks are designed to maximize operational safety. For instance, a significant reduction in cabin noise to just 20 decibels improves operator communication and focus. This enhancement reduces the risk of errors caused by distractions or auditory fatigue, creating a safer work environment.
Reducing Operational Risks
The reduced maintenance requirements of NewSteel trucks decrease personnel exposure to potentially hazardous situations. With fewer mechanical interventions, there are fewer opportunities for accidents during repairs or adjustments. Additionally, this approach ensures that trucks remain operational for longer periods, contributing to smoother and more efficient operations. Read our blog on predictive maintenance strategies.
Boosting Operational Efficiency
Beyond improving safety, NewSteel’s trucks also optimize operational efficiency. With an operational availability of 90%, these trucks minimize downtime. Predictive maintenance technology anticipates and prevents failures, increasing equipment reliability and ensuring continuous and safe operations. This proactive approach allows mining companies to avoid costly interruptions and maximize output.
Commitment to Sustainability
The transition to electric trucks offers immediate benefits in terms of safety and efficiency while also delivering long-term environmental impacts. By eliminating exhaust gas emissions, NewSteel contributes to reducing air pollution, improving air quality for workers and nearby communities.
Moreover, this reduction in emissions represents a crucial step toward more sustainable and responsible mining. It aligns with increasingly stringent environmental regulations and societal expectations, helping mining companies maintain their social license to operate.
