INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH FOR THE HARSHEST CONDITIONS

• The use of touch screen kiosks in the mining
  industry is growing, and not just for the use of
  clocking on and off to mark attendance at work.
  Touch screen kiosks are playing a vital role in
  company-wide communication and the safety of all
  staff. Lets take a look at how touch screen
  kiosks are making a positive impact in the mining
  industry.

Digital Tracking for Staff Safety
One of our valued mining customers, Kirkland Lake
Gold Forestville, installed our touch screen
kiosks for the safety and protection of their
underground miners. Kirkland Lake Gold
Forestville is an underground gold mine located
in the Central Victorian Goldfields region. With
a labyrinth of over 45km of tunnels, the
challenge was keeping track of everyone at all
times. If an emergency situation occurred,
management and security teams wanted a quick and
easy way to find out where all staff were located
at any given time. We worked collaboratively
with their other technology and hardware partners
to deliver a full touch screen kiosk solution
with 3D digital tracking software that provides a
simple robust way for the underground miners to
self-check in/out, be quickly located, and
readily return equipment after each shift via
their custom software.

Touch Screen Kiosks for Visitors and Contractors
Check-in kiosks located at main entrances to mine
facilities are used by visitors and contractors
who come onsite. The check-in kiosks can be
fitted with cameras to capture photos, as well as
printers for producing self-adhesive name badges.
On departure, visitors and contractors can simply
checkout by scanning their visitor badges. If any
visitors need to complete inductions on arrival,
they too can be completed via the check-in kiosks.
Touch Screen Kiosks for Staff Inductions
Given the nature of the work in a mine, it is
ever so important for all staff to complete
inductions prior to commencing, and even more
important to be kept up-to-date with any new
procedures. Touch screen kiosks assist HR and
administration teams to ensure that all employees
complete the inductions as and when required to
ensure the site remains compliant.

What Makes Our Touch Screen Kiosks Suitable for
the Mining Industry?
Here are some of the key features that we think
are important

• Commercial grade touch screen with toughened
  glass for high-traffic use.
• Tamper-resistant design with key lockable access
  door.
• Robust steel construction with a durable
  powder-coat finish, with the bonus option for
  branding.
• 10-point multi-touch technology allows miners to
  use simple gestures like pinch, pan, and zoom to
  easily navigate the touch screen kiosks. This can
  be comforting for staff who are not tech-savvy or
  comfortable with using a computer.

• Free-standing design for easy transport should
  the kiosk need to be moved to a different
  location within the mine. This helps the kiosks
  to remain accessible for all staff. There is also
  an option to bolt down the base plate. The power
  and data feeds can also go through the base plate
  for tidy cable management.
• A range of peripherals are available, like a
  stainless steel keyboard if the application
  requires it. Whilst most interactions can be
  performed via the interactive touch screen,
  keyboards can offer a little more flexibility
  when entering detailed information. Stainless
  steel keyboards are designed to withstand heavy
  use in harsh environments where dirt, dust, and
  grime prevail. Built-in multi-speed cooling fans
  and louvers.
• Easy to maintain with flush edge-to-edge finishes
  allowing the equipment to be easily cleaned and
  sterilised with alcohol/isopropyl products.

Mining Locations also use our Commercial Grade
Touch Screens
Many mining sites also use our commercial grade
touch screens in common areas, planning offices,
and where digital signage is required. Some
people question whether normal displays can be
used in situations like this, however we strongly
advise that industrial touch screens will do a
far better job. Our article on the Advantages of
Industrial Touch Screens over Normal Displays
outlines what makes a touch screen industrial
grade, the top features, the key advantages, and
who is using them. If you would like to explore
which of our touch screens or touch screen kiosks
can be integrated with your mine, please dont
hesitate to get in touch with our sales team who
would be happy to work with you to find the right
solution. Drop them a line sales_at_intouchscreens.co
