ThoroughTec to Showcase New Generation of Mining Simulators at AIMEX

INTERNATIONAL MINING – JULY 2013

ThoroughTec Simulation will be showcasing the advanced heavy equipment mining simulation equipment at AIMEX 2013, held in Sydney form August 20-23. ThoroughTec develops complex mining machines like drills, bolters, locomotives, scalers, graders and continuous miners, and provides own mine site customization. ThoroughTec has developed from its base in South Africa to South America, North America, Australia and more recently Indonesia, South Asia and Central Asia since its global launch at AIMEX 2011.

Visitors to AIMEX 2013 will be able to test drive ThoroughTec’s new generation advanced machines and will demonstrate the CYBERMINE’s ability to simulate complex surface and underground mining equipment in the simulator cabs.

Greg Lew, ThoroughTec’s EVP of Global Business Development said “Our range, built on the back of over 20 years of experience in engineering high-fidelity simulation systems for both mining and military applications, is not limited to simple load-and-haul simulation offerings, but includes the more complex ancillary equipment. They are designed and engineered to make mines safer, more productive and more cost effective.”

“ThoroughTec’s mining simulators encompass all aspects of both surface and underground mining operations for hard and soft rock and are capable of replicating a mine’s entire working fleet from load and haul through to the most complex production and ancillary equipment.” Lew continued.
