Epiroc Autonomous Haulage (LinkOA)
Epiroc's autonomous haulage offering, delivered with its ASI Mining subsidiary, converts mixed OEM haul-truck fleets to fully driverless operation. Early conversions used ASI Mining's Mobius; more recent conversions run Epiroc's LinkOA agnostic autonomy system. At Hancock Iron Ore's Roy Hill mine in the Pilbara, Epiroc converted the full 78-truck mixed fleet to driverless operation, described as the world's largest fully OEM-agnostic autonomous haulage operation.
Current platform
Pit Viper
Epiroc's Pit Viper is a large surface blasthole drill-rig series that has operated autonomously for over a decade (under Epiroc's 6th Sense automation), often run from off-site control rooms; more than 90 million meters have been drilled autonomously, with ~17% higher utilization in autonomous mode.
