CS 72. Reading Truck: Eliminate Jobsite Chaos with the Ultimate Tool Storage Setup

MN 372. Kal Tire Mining Tire Group Part 10: How AI Tire Inspections Are Transforming Mining Operations

Mining tire failures can shut down production, create safety risks, and drive up operating costs. In this episode, Christian Erdelyi, Technical Services Director at Kal Tire, explains how the mining industry is using AI-powered tire inspection technology to detect damage earlier and prevent costly haul road problems before they escalate. Kal Tire performs 1.8 million tire inspections annually and more than 130,000 tire changes, making tire management one of the most critical challenges in mining operations. Christian shares how KalPRO TireSight, developed with Pitcrew AI, delivers autonomous tire inspections across multiple mine sites worldwide, while KalPRO HaulSight, launched with Decoda, helps identify haul road conditions that contribute to tire damage. 🔸 Learn More about Kal Tire Mining Tire Group: https://www.kaltiremining.com/en/tire-management-services/tiresight/?utm_source=Crownsmen&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=TireSight

MN 369. Dassault Systèmes Part 5: How GEOVIA & MineSense Are Fixing Mining's Data Problem

In this episode of Mining NOW, filmed live at MINEXCHANGE, host Rory Bamford sits down with Ralph Smith (Dassault Systèmes/GEOVIA), Tim Norris (Dassault Systèmes/GEOVIA), and Hannah Lang (MineSense Technologies) to break down a breakthrough integration connecting MineSense's ShovelSense sensors directly into GEOVIA Surpac's 3D mine planning environment. Discover how bucket-level ore grade data — captured in real time as material is dug — now flows straight into mine planning software, closing the gap between the block model and what's actually happening on site. The panel dives into how this integration reduces ore dilution, improves blast movement accuracy, and replaces slow manual data workflows with an automated, scalable pipeline. They also explore what's next: virtual twins, AI-powered decision support, and full-loop integration from shovel to processing plant. 🔸 Visit Dassault Systèmes to Learn More: https://www.3ds.com/products/geovia/surpac?utm_source=Crownsmen&utm_medium=Episode&utm_campaign=One+Click+Conversion 🔸 Discover GEOVIA today: https://www.3ds.com/products/geovia Media Partner 🔹 Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration Inc.
