According to Khabar Fori, the Mining, Mineral Industries, Mineral
Processing, and Mining Machinery and Road Construction Exhibition, with the
participation of 80 production, industrial, and service companies from across
the country, was inaugurated on Wednesday, August 16, at the Zanjan
International Exhibition Center.
One of the highlights of this exhibition was the unveiling of several
promising knowledge-based projects in line with the Leader’s directives to
strengthen national production. The inauguration of these projects not only
meets the country's complete needs but also prevents the outflow of foreign
currency for purchasing foreign parts.
Yesterday afternoon, Gohar Sanat Company (Kerman Province) had two national
unveilings. The first was the unveiling of the control and monitoring system
for electric mining dump trucks. Previously, all monitoring systems for mining
dump trucks were imported. Fortunately, domestic specialists have succeeded in
localizing these systems during the year of production, knowledge-based
entrepreneurship, and have shone brightly. The second unveiling was the
commencement of the construction of 150-ton electric mining dump trucks, which
will significantly assist miners.
Alireza Saadatmand, Chairman of the Board of Gohar Sanat Company, told a
Khabar Fori reporter at the unveiling: "Fortunately, the control and
monitoring system for mining dump trucks was unveiled today, freeing the
country from dependence on foreign sources. Until today, these systems were
imported. In other words, when electric mining dump trucks move, their control
systems are electric and must be guided by systems and computers."
He stated: "When one of these cards or boards burned out, the mining
dump trucks, which could generate several hundred million tomans daily, had to
be stopped until the board was repaired or a new one was purchased from abroad.
This issue caused mining dump trucks to be halted for months until the board
was restarted, as these boards had to be purchased from Africa or
Australia."
The Chairman of Gohar Sanat Company explained: "Moreover, after
purchasing the board, there was a risk of error because various versions and
models exist in the global market, and there was a possibility of
incompatibility between the new board and the system installed in the country
for mining dump trucks."
He added: "Eventually, the sons of this land decided to localize the
control and monitoring system for mining dump trucks. Thanks to God and the
Leader's guidance, they achieved this success; the tests of this system were
conducted, and with 100% success, it is now usable in mines across the
country."
Saadatmand added: "The design of the control system is fully completed,
and we are ready to provide this system with new modeling to the country's
mines, and we have no issues in this regard. We have received many orders from
all parts of the country, and God willing, we are designing their models. We
promise that if the board or card of the computer systems of mining dump trucks
burns out or breaks down, we will restart their systems within a day."
Designing the Control System for Locomotives Next
He expressed: "The company's vision is to design the control and
monitoring system for locomotives, as we have obtained the main design
solutions for this industry and can implement them on other machines and
equipment managed by electric propulsion."
The Chairman of Gohar Sanat Company referred to another unveiling by the
company at this exhibition and said: "Recently, the Minister of Industry,
Mine, and Trade was in Belarus and signed a memorandum of understanding for
importing 150-ton mining dump trucks. This memorandum of understanding does not
mean that the country cannot operate in this field, so we decided to enter the
design and construction of 150-ton electric mining dump trucks. Today,
simultaneously with the unveiling of the control and monitoring system for
mining dump trucks, this topic was also initiated."
He said: "The construction of electric mining dump trucks has a completely
environmental approach, and we believe that the environment is for future
generations, and we must protect it. The advantage of electric mining dump
trucks is that they no longer have gearboxes and differentials and are entirely
electric. Fortunately, with the construction of electric mining dump trucks,
most of the miners' concerns nationwide will be resolved."
Saadatmand concluded: "Gohar Sanat Company has gathered all the
country's specialists from various parts of this land and is actively working."
Furthermore, I use this platform to announce that university graduates and
specialists interested in this field can join this company. Together, we can
contribute to the growth and development of our beloved country because the
Leader has always stated that the solution to the country's problems lies in
relying on domestic capabilities."
He said: "This company is currently located in Sirjan and is active in
various fields such as constructing docks, submarines, various vessels, and
airplane parts."
