Load and haul operations on opencast mines typically involve the regular movement of trucks and other machinery in areas where there could also be pedestrians. Proximity Detection Systems (PDS) developed by Booyco Electronics make use of Radio Frequency (RF) and Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to ensure the necessary distance between employees and machines, and between machines.

As safety regulations in South Africa focus increasingly on risk management by mines, Booyco Electronics has the experience and technology to guide customers towards compliance. 

The Booyco CXS solution is a comprehensive and integrated response to Level 7, Level 8 and Level 9 safety levels – as defined by the Earth Moving Equipment Safety Round Table (EMESRT), and adopted by the Minerals Council of South Africa.
