The spectrum ranges from development and production to custom programming of intrinsically safe control systems and PC based systems within pressure-proof encapsulation. Service begins during project planning for each system or customized solution. On schedule delivery and highest quality are as much a part of service as reliable on-site support worldwide. The high quality is reflected in the company’s ISO 9000:2000 certification and by production in accordance with MA guidelines.

Core Products
	State-of-the-art microcontroller technology and increased computing power allow a completely new dimension of automation. • PMC®-R - Roof Support • PMC®-V - Operator Interface • PMC®-D - Drive Control • PMC®-G - Communication

Visualization and Monitoring
	The mining control center can process data collected from the PM4 or PMC®-R at the longwall, from gearbox computers and from the shearer. • Process visualization • Parameter management • Data recording • Remote maintenance

Bus Technology

Intelligent Ventilation Technology (VMC – Ventilation Monitoring and Control) is an intrinsically safe data transmission and shut-down system. When parameters for CH4 or other gases are exceeded alarms are given and/or electrical systems will be shutdown, depending on the parameter setting. • Ensures centralized collection and monitoring • System diagnosis • Reduced cabling in installation • High-safety standards
