德州奧斯汀2008年5月29日消息，艾默生過程管理公司已經于當天宣布已經設計的一個Smart Mine系列研討班，幫助采礦公司優化性能改善運營。艾默生Smart Mine培訓班將于2008年6月在南美洲開班，隨后橫跨全球到達南非和澳大利亞。 全天免費的培訓班涉及的主題包括：優化運營、培訓準備、過程工廠和應用艾默生Smart Mine方法。日程如下： • 6月17日 智利 圣地亞哥 • 6月20日 智利 Antofagasta • 6月24日 阿根廷 San Juan • 7月1日 利馬 秘魯 • 7月4日 秘魯 Arequipa 艾默生過程管理金屬采礦部門主管Djoko Corovic說：“多數采礦運營商正在使自動化成為他們戰略優越性的一部分。高級自動化可以幫助預測和阻止異常情況，如主要設備損壞、生產虧損、過度能源消耗和其它問題。延長資產使用壽命，實現安全操作，對于任何一個市場來說都是成功的關鍵?！? 艾默生的Smart Mine方法，是其近年來全球經驗和技術創新的結晶。作為世界上最大的過程自動化提供商，艾默生所積累的鋼鐵采礦業經驗包括有：為拉丁美洲最大的金礦Newmont Yanacocha提供自動化解決方案；Rio Tinto/Alcan Gove Alumina冶煉廠20億美元的擴展工程；中國貴溪銅冶煉擴展工程；哈薩克斯坦Xstrata Kazzinc的升級工程及其它世界范圍內的工程。 艾默生Smart Mine方法利用的預測性智能自動化技術，來自艾默生開放性的，能共同操作的PlantWeb®數字化架構，包括用于改善運營的智能無線技術。PlantWeb使公司可在破壞發生之前就能探測出過程和設備的問題，實現生產最大化，意外最小化，降低成本最大化利潤。智能無線技術減少了工廠中盲點的數量，實現了傳統布線中不能實現的過程測量。 艾默生過程管理公司拉丁美洲總裁Leo Rodriguez說：“采礦業是拉丁美洲經濟的重要組成部分， 我們很高興能發起此次全球性研討培訓班，盼望著能與當地的或是國家性的采礦公司分享我們的經驗?！? 更多關于研討會的信息，包括詳細的日程和注冊表，請登錄：www.EmersonProcess.com/SmartMine. [FONT=times] original text [/FONT][font=times] Emerson Smart Mine seminars to help mining companies improve operations and reduce risk [/font] [font=times][Color=#708090]Austin, Texas （May 29, 2008） – Emerson Process Management today announced a global Smart Mine series designed to help mining companies optimize performance and improve operations. Emerson‘s Smart Mine seminars will kick off in South America in June 2008 and travel across the globe to South Africa and Australia later in the year. The free, full-day seminars will include topics on optimizing mining operations, feed preparations, processing plants and utilities using the Emerson Smart Mine approach. The schedule includes: • Santiago, Chile – 17 June • Antofagasta, Chile – 20 June • San Juan, Argentina – 24 June • Lima, Perú – 1 July • Arequipa, Perú – 4 July "More mining operations are making automation a significant part of their strategy for excellence," said Djoko Corovic, director, metals and mining, Emerson Process Management. "Advanced automation can help predict and prevent abnormal situations that can cause damage to major equipment, loss of production, excessive energy consumption and other problems. Extending the life of your assets and safely operating at greater production levels is critical to being successful in any market." Emerson‘s Smart Mine approach is the result of years of global experience and technology innovation. As the world‘s largest process automation provider, Emerson‘s metals and mining experience includes providing automation solutions to Newmont Yanacocha, the largest gold mine in Latin America; a $2 billion expansion project at the Rio Tinto/Alcan Gove Alumina refinery; the Copper Guixi smelter expansion in China; the Xstrata Kazzinc upgrade project in Kazakhstan; and other mining operations around the world. The Emerson Smart Mine approach utilizes the predictive intelligence and automation technologies of Emerson‘s open and interoperable PlantWeb® digital architecture, including the company‘s Smart Wireless technologies, to improve operations. PlantWeb enables companies to detect process and equipment problems before they occur to maximize throughput, minimize surprises, reduce costs and maximize profits. Smart Wireless technologies reduce the number of "blind spots" in a plant, and allow more process measurements in areas that were previously unreachable with traditional wiring. "The mining industry is a vital component of the Latin American economy," said Leo Rodriguez, president, Emerson Process Management Latin America. "We are proud to kick off this global seminar series in Latin America and look forward to sharing our experience with participating local and national mining companies."
