Mining robotics: the theoretical fundamentals

摘要

Some preconditions and hisotry of robotization in mining are analyzed. Mining robotics has a lot of differences from a machinery robotics because mining environment is changed always. The orbotics-oriented criteria of technologies robotisability, such as a complexity of control, visibility of working area, technological flexibility, changeability of object and control are suggested. To create robotics-based technologies a functional modeling and dynamic simulation by Petri nets is used. Both direct and indirect sources of robotics profitability in mining are discussed.
