South Africa-based Booyco Electronics is now in a strategic collaboration with technology systems integrator Ramjack Technology Solutions. Working together the companies will assist mines in integrating their PDS effectively, in the interests of greater safety and productivity.

Booyco Electronics’ CXS proximity detection systems (PDS) have been installed on a surface gold mine in Chile, South America. The installation follows a demanding test phase which confirmed the customer’s trust in the technology. The project was carried out in collaboration with Booyco Electronics’ distributor in the region – mining and industrial technology company Insucam.

Booyco Electronics is seeing enthusiastic uptake of its home-grown Proximity Detection System (PDS) technologies and is making rapid headway in growing its global footprint. Key relationships have been established with Australian smart technology company RCT, with Ramjack Technology Solutions and with Insucam.

As mines work to improve the safety of their trackless operations, the starting point remains a detailed risk assessment that will guide the correct selection

Coal mines were among the first customers of proximity detection system (PDS) specialist Booyco Electronics, and the company continues to grow its footprint in this

Responsible mining companies the world over are moving steadily towards safety Level 9, and Booyco Electronics is at the forefront of fit-for-purpose proximity detection and collision avoidance technologies that comply.

While the Covid-19 lockdown has forced many companies serving the mining sector to downscale, Booyco Electronics is continuing to apply and develop its technologies for safer, more productive mining operations. With its nationwide team of some 180 field technicians serving opencast and underground mine, the company has by far the largest footprint among players in this field.
