ABB, the only supplier of complete mine hoist systems ABB has the unique capability to engineer, deliver, install and provide after-sales service of entire mechanical and electrical mine hoist systems of all types. They include friction hoists, single drum hoists as well as double drum hoists. We offer the Lowest possible life cycle cost, LCC Shorter project execution time Single source for service and spare parts. Our global presence makes us always close to our customers. Strong engineering resources are available for feasibility studies and conceptual solutions. Hoist control and monitoring systems ABB's hoist control system is based on IndustrialIT technology. Complying with stringent safety and availability requirements of mine hoist applications, this powerful, userfriendly control system is built up from ABB ControlIT and ABB OperateIT. The fully automatic system includes control of feeders, conveyors and measuring flasks at the loading level as well as pushbutton control of multi-level man/material hoists. The system also provides semiautomatic testing of safety functions

and prints out comprehensive production and performance reports. The AHM 110 Advant Hoist Monitor is an independent unit that provides protection against overspeed and overwinding. Drive systems ABB is the leader in drive technology. The latest technology, DriveIT ACS 6000SD, with DTC, Direct Torque Control, using IGCT, Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristors, for torque and speed control of AC motors is now well proven for hoist applications. It offers high efficiency, superior control performance, low voltage drop in the supply network and low harmonic distortion as well as very low flicker. Synchronous motors are used for direct drives and induction motors for geared drives. DC motors of all sizes are available for geared drive applications and for thyristor converter drives. All drives are equipped with powerful maintenance software, Drives Window. Hoist machinery ABB employs powerful FEA and 3D tools for the engineering of the systems and their components. Full quality assurance is implemented throughout the engineering and manufacturing processes.

ABBs AHM 110 Advant Hoist Monitor provides very accurate monitoring of essential safety parameters.

A new hydraulically controlled disc brake system was supplied by ABB to Alrosa, the Russian diamond mining company, for the revamping of a mine hoist in one of its diamond mines in Mirny in eastern Siberia.

Pulleys and drums are available in split or unsplit design. Brake discs are welded or bolted on to the shell plate. SKF spherical roller bearings are selected to ensure high efficiency and long service life. Hydraulic disc brake system Multi-caliper disc brakes are used for emergency stop and holding at standstill. The hydraulic control unit is equipped with dual systems to meet the highest safety requirements. The correct operation of all components is continuously monitored. Controlled retardation provides the set retardation rate independent of the actual payload and direction of movement. It also increases the margins to rope slip in friction hoists. Rope Oscillation Control For mine hoists operating in deep shafts, ABB has developed ROC, Rope Oscillation Control. Integrated into the electric drive system, it greately reduces the oscillations during the hoisting cycle while increasing the rope life and the transport comfort during men hoisting. Integrated into the emergency control brake circuit, it allows the static rope safety to be reduced in accordance with SABS 0294s (South Africa) requirements.

Shaft equipment ABB engineers and supplies complete shaft equipment including skips, cages, guides, head and tail ropes with their attachments. Measuring flasks and weighing conveyors are also part of ABBs product portfolio. Argus Advanced Diagnostic Tool Argus is a powerful maintenance tool for local or remote fault finding, condition monitoring and monitoring of the mine hoist performance. It is of modular design and integrated into the hoist control and drive system. Using the remote diagnostic function, mine hoist specialists in ABB service centers can identify the majority of faults and address them. Modernization of existing mine hoists In recent years, ABB has executed numerous projects for the modernization of mine hoists manufactured by ABB or others. They range from minor upgrades of single hoists to large revamps of complete hoisting plants such as that at LKABs mine in Kiruna, Sweden, where a total of ten hoists with a combined capacity of 26.5 million tonnes per year were modernized.
