Put the PLM to work on:
Continuous miners
Feeders
Shuttle Cars
Longwall Systems
Roof Bolters
The Matrix PowerLine Module (PLM) enables strong, secure ethernet communications between a range of devices over trailing power cables. As real-time data processing continues to enable productivity gains throughout the mining industry, maximizing productivity insights, data gathering, and communications with underground equipment are more important than ever.
The Matrix PLM is easy to install and integrate into your system, where it will help you gather vital data that can improve mining performance and safety.
Put the PLM to work on continuous miners, shuttle cars, roof bolters, feeders and longwall systems.
