Site Twins for Mining, Manufacturing, Recycling & Quarries
One platform, configured for your Site specific assets, processes and decisions.
Mining Site Twin
Focus 1: short interval throughput optimization by identifying system-level constraints from pit/face to product stockpiles and aligning actions and plan changes across mining, processing & maintenance.
Focus 2: real time safety monitoring and automated notification/escalation by AI cameras in high risk (e.g. confined space), heavy / light vehicle and light vehicle / pedestrian zones.
Common first win: Mining & Processing collaborate in real time on grade control/ROM pads/crushing/rehandling and system throughput goes up with less rehandle.
Key connected systems & plans: OT Historian, EAM, Process Plan, Mining Plan, Safety, Fleet
Manufacturing Site Twin
Focus 1: line stability, changeovers, downtime causes, maintenance deconfliction
Focus 2: safety in mixed traffic zones, overhead crane semi-autonomy
Documented first win: identification of exactly where waste is being created in process, and how ERP inventory tracking can be substantially improved
Key connected systems & plans: OT Historian/SCADA, CMMS/EAM, MES, ERP, Safety

Recycling Site Twin
Focus 1: feedstock variability (quality, type, timing), inbound-process-outbound constraints, yard congestion and rehandle
Focus 2: safety in mixed traffic, remote supervision of small sites, contamination/quality impacts

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
How does a digital twin improve mining throughput? A Mining Site Twin identifies system-level constraints across the entire value chain — from pit face to product stockpile — enabling short interval throughput optimization. By connecting OT historians, fleet, process plans, and mining plans into a single view, mining and processing teams can collaborate in real time on grade control, ROM pads, crushing, and rehandling to increase overall system throughput.
What does a digital twin do for manufacturing operations? A Manufacturing Site Twin connects SCADA, CMMS, MES, ERP, and safety systems to give production teams visibility into line stability, changeover performance, and downtime root causes. It identifies exactly where waste is being created in a process and how inventory tracking can be improved — turning fragmented operational data into actionable production intelligence.
Can a digital twin handle the variability in recycling operations? Yes. A Recycling Site Twin is specifically designed for feedstock variability — differences in quality, type, contamination, and timing that constantly change operating conditions. It provides constraint visibility across inbound logistics, processing, and outbound product, and helps teams develop playbooks for known variability patterns so they can respond faster and reduce rehandling and yard congestion.
What systems does a Site Twin connect to? The Site Twin integrates with OT historians, SCADA systems, EAM/CMMS for maintenance, ERP and MES for production, fleet management, GIS, safety and camera systems, process and mining plans, and delivery schedules. The specific connections vary by industry, but the approach is always the same: unify existing systems into a shared operational picture without replacing any of them.
How does a Site Twin improve industrial safety across different industries? Across mining, manufacturing, and recycling, the Site Twin uses AI-powered camera and sensor monitoring to detect safety risks in real time — particularly in high-risk zones like confined spaces, heavy-light vehicle interaction areas, and mixed-traffic zones. It provides persistent monitoring with configurable escalation rules, so safety issues are surfaced without creating alert fatigue.
