Visualization software
Due to the increasing complexity of underground coal mining the demands placed on the operators with respect to the control of the extraction operation are high.
Tiefenbach Control Systems has developed a visualization system that generates a simple and intuitive system overview. The operator can see all the relevant information at a glance. Detailed information can be called up selectively and manual intervention into the mining process is possible at all times.
VisuMx_Server
The VisuMx_Server functions as interface between the underground master control units and the central control room at the surface. The server prepares the information relating to the face and makes it available to the VisuLx_Client.[...]

Furthermore, numerous interfaces to external systems are made available – as e.g. to an OPC-Server.

Tiefenbach Control Systems’ VisuLx_Client is the interface between the operator and the control software. The client presents the data processed by the visu server graphically and provides the user with a large variety of input options. The main display gives a complete overview of the longwall face. Thus, the current progress of the mining operation is shown at a glance. Furthermore, numerous pieces of information can be called up for each shield support. Any malfunctions or problems are also communicated to the user unambiguously and without delay.
