Abstract: In light of the demand of open-pit mine on truck transport automation and its complex terrain, the truck-shovel transport metering system for open-pit mine is designed by adopting RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) techniques.This system can not only make an automatic statistics of the truck and shovel loading number, but also normalize their transport in accordance with ore blending plan, so as to improve the open-pit truck-shovel working efficiency and ensure a steady ore supply to the concentrator.This system has now been put into use in Sandaozhuang Open-pit Mine of Luanchuan Molybdenum Group.The site testing has proved that the system, being stable and capable of satisfying the mine production requirement, can greatly improve the mine's labor productivity.
