International Service & Supply Ltd ("ISS Mine Safety" or "ISS") has entered into an agreement with Scott Automation+Robotics to distribute and support its revolutionary robotic refuelling system in the Canadian mining market.

Scott Automation+Robotics Robofuel system uses a state-of-the-art vision sensing and detection system which allows the robot to locate the position and orientation of the haul trucks fuel tank. Whether a LIEBHERR, HITACHI, CAT or KOMATSU haul truck, the system can be implemented to improve the efficiency of re-fuelling, reduce the cost of re-fuelling and mitigate the risk of environmental contamination.  Benefit summary:

• Ability to refuel without the use of a local operator.
• Increased operator safety.
• No diversion of the trucks from the circuit.
• Increase mine truck availability.
• Remote refuelling skids can be relocated to optimal positions as the mine workings develop.
• MInimized spillages and environmental contamination.
