It complements our ever evolving Automation and Connectivity System (ACS) and SAM by Sandvik cloud-based digital assistant,\u201d explains Nils-Peter Ahlqvist, Sales Support Manager Africa &amp; Latin America \u2013 Crushing Division at Sandvik Rock Processing. \u201cRMS translates vast amounts of data acquired from Sandvik crushers into actionable recommendations, reducing operating costs and boosting productivity and sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RMS utilises a data-driven study of abnormal behaviour in terms of both crusher performance and health to generate tangible remedial action informed by data. In essence, it provides real-time data that allows customers to anticipate problems before they occur, thus avoiding surprises.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"741\" data-id=\"9845\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-1024x741.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-1024x741.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-768x555.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-1536x1111.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-05-2048x1481.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-04-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the machine visibility RMS provides allows for the replacement of wearing parts before they wear out. Collected data over a period of time will provides insights into parts that are replaced frequently, allowing customers to keep these in stock at all times and avoid unnecessary downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With RMS, mines and quarries can expect increased efficiency within their operations. Continuous analysis of real-time data round-the-clock helps operations get the most out of their equipment, minimising downtime and maximising uptime. Higher uptime translates into higher machine utilisation which, in turn, reduces cost-per-hour.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn addition, the data gathered on crusher performance makes optimisation easier with the ultimate goal of enhancing business performance. The alerts, available 24\/7, also help reduce high wearing of crusher components, which is detrimental to material consistency and has negative cost implications,\u201d says Ahlqvist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-id=\"9842\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9842\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/RMS-PIC-02-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keeping machines running in optimal condition translates into reduced energy consumption which not only results in cost effective operations, but also allows customers to reduce their environmental impact.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEnergy efficiency and sustainability have over the years become a key part of business decisions for mining companies, especially on the back of growing pressure for the industry to improve its sustainability performance.
