MAJOR CUSTOMERS For 40 years Nautilus International has been supplying Radio, Teleremote, Autonomous Guidance and Proximity Protection systems to the best mining companies in the world. These are just a few of them: #1 in Size - BHP Billiton #1 in Gold Goldcorp, Barrick, Newmont #1 in Uranium Cameco Corporation #1 in Aluminium - Alcoa #1 in Coking Coal - BHP and Mitsubishi

Autonomous Guidance System
TC5 or CONTROL – CHAIR ? The Nautilus Control-Chair that the operator used to remotely control his machine was beautiful, comfortable and popular. However, it was also large, heavy, had to be bolted to the floor and very expensive. This heavy Chair could not be taken underground to test and trouble-shoot the machine and it couldn’t be easily moved to a different location. Our TC5 plus a luxurious office chair for the operator makes him extremely powerful, very comfortable, completely safe and it has none of the heavy Chair’s problems. The TC5 AGS System is powerful for many reasons, one of them is: in a few seconds the operator can use his TC5 to select and operate any type of machine in the mine.

Autonomous Guidance System
For Loaders, Rock-Breakers, Block-Holers etc… Nautilus has been developing their AGS system for loaders for a long time. The first semi-automated AGS design started in 1998 at Northparkes, Australia. In 2000, we designed and manufactured ‘Lucy’ our electric loader to test all of our Radio, Teleremote and Autonomous Guidance Systems. Lucy is only 1/5th the size of a real loader but she’s fitted with a full size AGS system. For 18 years, we’ve used Lucy and our indoor mine to simplify, improve, miniaturize and test all types of systems. Our indoor mine has three fully equipped Control Rooms with more than 25 Drawpoints and multiple Ore-Passes. Our customers’ electricians, tech’s and operators come here to our indoor mine for full hands-on training without being exposed to any danger. Nautilus, we’ve been working on Automation since 1998

LHD Submersible Cameras
These very small, high resolution, colour cameras work well even in very low light conditions with our digital systems. Cutting or shorting the camera cable will not damage the camera or the VTX4 that feeds it. This camera is submersible and meets IP68 requirements. 80mm diameter, powerful magnetic base Camera: 47 x 47 x 40mm

TC5 - AUTOMATED MACHINE SELECTION
The operator can enter any machine’s Plate # into any TC5 and it will be ready to operate that machine. To make sure the operator hasn’t accidentally entered the wrong Plate # the screen will show him the machine he has selected. For example: if the operator pushes button 1 then 2 at the bottom of his TC5 to enter Plate # 12 then the TC5 will show him: ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO OPERATE CAT LHD R If the operator pushes YES then the TC5 will be ready to operate and ask him to touch a deadman button. When he does this: The Horn on this LHD will blast 3 times and it’s front and rear lights will flash 3 times to warn anyone nearby that it’s about to be remotely controlled. If the operator is in a Surface Control Room he will receive excellent audio feedback from this LHD so he will hear the horn blasting and if his Control Room is not too bright he will also see the lighting around his LHD flashing on and off on his TV’s.

Automated Guidance System
Why would you want a Nautilus AGS System? AGS will run your loaders faster and more efficiently. AGS will prevent your loaders from hitting walls and being damaged. Production will improve because your loaders won’t be out of service as often. Your loaders can be operated from a small room on the surface or anywhere in the mine. Why use a surface control room? AGS can operate between shifts. AGS can operate just before blasting and almost immediately after blasting. AGS operators don’t waste time and money going to & from the u/g to get ready to work. How does Nautilus compare to the competition? Our installation is the fastest Nautilus has the best Wi-Fi videos Nautilus AGS systems have a lot less equipment Nautilus AGS works better than our competitors’ systems. The training required to use our AGS system takes only a few hours. 40 Years of excellence
