Cat® MineStar™ Automation Solutions


Near-continuous machine utilization. More consistent operations. Greater efficiency. Ability to remove operators from harm’s way.

These are just a few of the benefits you can achieve when you incorporate automation into your mining operation — and they’re all made possible by Cat® MineStar™ Solutions. 

Machine automation has been one of the biggest developments in technology over the last decade, and significant benefits can be realized with even the simplest of applications. Individual technologies can be used alone or combined in multiple ways to take advantage of immediate productivity, efficiency and safety gains and serve as the building blocks leading to autonomous mining operations.

Cat MineStar Solutions make it possible for you to automate a single mining process, remotely control a single machine, automate multiple types of equipment across a mixed fleet, or implement a completely autonomous fleet of haul trucks that operate around the clock with no human intervention.
