Reliability evaluation service of great-extension tailing canals employed to transport tailings or residual waters used in mining.
We are pioneers in this area, since 2016 we have incorporated the concept of robotized inspection of tailing canals, having inspected the two longest tailing canals of the world, as well as the oldest one. We currently offer our services in Chile and Peru.
The canals used to transport the mining tailings are reinforced concrete structures usually of rectangular shape. They are generally covered by a concrete slab and can be many kilometers long.
These structures can undergo internal erosion due to the abrasion produced by the fluids. For this reason and to guarantee their operational integrity and assure a sustainable performance, Maquintel has developed the robotized inspection concept of tailing canals. Thanks to this service mining companies have been able to improve their operation, strengthening their commitment to the environment and the communities.
The smart inspection services offered by Maquintel are able to pinpoint the exact location that must be repaired using our LiDAR Analysis Software and Machine Learning, helping us elaborate a full post-inspection report, which furthermore optimizes the mining companies’ maintenance resources.
