Sandvik deploys Nokia private 4.9/LTE and 5G technology at the Sandvik underground test mine in Tampere, Finland
Nokia's 5G infrastructure will have capability to automate mining processes and enable remote machine operations on over 4K video links between underground and surface control center
“Mining digitalization and automation are highly dependent on a predictable communication infrastructure. We need reliable data and analytics for telemetry, autonomy and optimization. Without a stable, fast and resilient network none of these would be possible. This is one of the reasons why connectivity is such a big topic for Sandvik. But we are not a networking company, we're a mining equipment and automation company. That's the reason why we are partnering with Nokia.”
