MineWare is a world-leading provider of dragline and shovel monitoring systems for the surface mining industry. The Australian company has developed a global reputation for integrated technologies that optimise mine, machine and operator performance.

MineWare’s 34 year old founder and Chief Executive Officer Andrew Jessett, developed and sold the company’s first dragline monitoring system to BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance in 2005. Since then, the company and its growing team of 16 staff has continued develop its core technologies including the Pegasys Dragline Monitor, Argus Shovel Monitor and remote monitoring tool mRoc Desktop.

MineWare’s Pegasys Dragline Monitor and Argus Shovel Monitor are rich with features including CCTV camera systems, high-precision GPS, mine plan integration, third party structural monitoring integration, and data and video proxy services.

Pegasys and Argus support the high production demands and minimal downtime requirements for mining draglines and shovels. Precision GPS guidance enables each system to display the exact 3D location of the dragline bucket or shovel dipper in relation to the mine plan in real-time. This aids in the accurate implementation of mine plans and improves the quality of real-time operator feedback and production efficiencies.

Heavily focused on technology research and innovation, MineWare works in close partnership with its clients to develop and evolve its technologies to meet the current and future needs of industry. Among its most recent achievements, MineWare has capitalised on new advances in wireless technology to develop its new remote management tool, mRoc Desktop.
