Remote Monitoring and Control System for Electrical Haulage Shearer

For the requirements and problems in remote monitoring and control system of electrical haulage shearer, this paper research the key technologies of shearers remote monitoring and control system, such as position and attitude testing, control strategy decision, communication real-time and reliability of network. Position and attitude testing method based SINS (Strap down Inertial Navigation System) was designed to measure position, attitude angle, speed and drum height of shearer together. The shearer control strategy based on work mode was proposed to control shearer working in optimal status. Finally, the network control model of shearer was established in order to analyze the time delay that effects on shearer control system.
