This has a lot to do with the innovative capacity that German mine operators have been able to bring to bear in working hand in hand with equipment manufacturers. They in turn have relied to a large degree on the research activities of mining departments at local technical colleges and universities. This benefits both the deep mining sector and the opencast industry and applies not just to coal and potash but to ore mining too, a sector that has not had a publically recognised role in Germany for more than twenty years.

This comprised the three coal panels numbered 123, 121 and 124. Preliminary gas drainage was a key factor leading to the success of the panel extraction projects in Zollverein 1\/2 seam. The thickness of the seam meant that a new \u2018category C\u2019 shield support system had to be procured. Following the successful extraction of panel 123 the new support installation was transferred directly into the new face sequence with the supports being transported as complete units weighing nearly 40 t a piece. This report describes the first direct face transfer from panel 123 to the next panel in the sequence, number 121, an operation that was completed on schedule. The planning work, operating parameters and underlying conditions associated with this operation are all described in detail.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors:\u00a0<\/strong>Dipl.-Ing.

Modern hydraulic stations for high production longwalls provide reliably and at high availability more than 2,000 l\/min emulsion at a system pressure of 350 to 420 bar for the hydraulic cylinders in the roof supports of the longwall. In addition, more and more water is used for dust suppression purposes. Pumps with an input power of up tp 500 kW per pump are already used today in high production longwalls. To manage the big flow per pump, valves with wear resistant ceramic inner parts are used. The flow of the pumps is controlled using Variable Speed Drives (VSD) and thus adapted to the demand of the longwall operation. KAMAT, worldwide leading system supplier for high pressure technology, is the driving force for further developing pump stations for longwalls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors:\u00a0<\/strong>Dr.-Ing.

Up until the early 1990s these products were mainly processed and delivered via simple pneumatic and hydraulic piston pumps, with pneumatically driven geared pumps also being employed in some cases. The resin products were supplied in disposable cans and drums. Because of increasing geomechanical stresses underground, which was a direct result of ever greater working depths and the high excavation ratio of German coal-bearing measures, it was realised that new solutions were needed for the transport and processing of synthetic resin materials, and this was ultimately to lead to the development of an effective remote pumping system. This paper will describe the various development steps that were taken to arrive at the technology currently in use today. It is based on a lecture given by the authors at the 7th Colloquium on Transport and Conveying in the Mining Industry, which was held at the Clausthal University of Technology, Clausthal-Zellerfeld, on 20th January 2016.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors:\u00a0<\/strong>Dipl.-Ing Ralf Schmidt und Torsten Niklaus, Servicebereich Technik- und Logistikdienste der RAG Aktiengesellschaft, Herne<\/p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/2025.mining-report.de\/english\/long-distance-pumping-injection-resins\" class=\"shortc-button small white\">Read more<\/a>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n\t\t<hr style=\"margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:10px;\" class=\"divider divider-normal\">\n\t\n<h3>Successful Implementation of Innovative Technology into an Existing Operation \u2013 Surface Miner Case Study<\/h3>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n\t\t<hr style=\"margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:10px;\" class=\"divider divider-normal\">\n\t\n<span class=\"tie-dropcap \">T<\/span>he implementation of new technology into an existing mining operation can deliver a step change in operation and commercial benefits.

The dependency of different solutions not only on the energy consumption but also on the productivity and the process outcome has to be concerned. For this reason, the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation (IPA), Stuttgart\/Germany, developed a simulation based model which simulates the production process of injection mold parts and parallel tracks the energy consumption. It makes it possible to try various control strategies for production process or different resources in the process. In the European Union funded I<sup>2<\/sup>Mine (Innovative Technologies and Concepts for the Intelligent Deep Mine of the Future) project this simulation based approach will be transferred to a typical room and pillar potash mine of K+S mining company, Kassel\/Germany.

The country remains a major supplier of raw materials to the Asian and European markets and while the price of coal, copper and iron ore could well remain weak up to 2020 this sector is still well placed to meet the future. Though Germany and Kazakhstan signed a governmental agreement in 2012 that established a partnership in raw materials, industry and technology, this has still not resulted in any significant projects. This paper describes the main raw materials now being extracted by the Kazakh mining industry and discusses the opportunities that may exist for German mining equipment suppliers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author: <\/strong>Peter v.
