Mine Safely, Mine Smart with a Partner in Precision

FARO mining technology ensures stability.
In mining operations, safety and efficiency are the top priorities. Sending workers into hazardous, unstable conditions multiple times a day is not an option. 3D laser scanning mining technology offers the benefits of ensuring rock-face and slope stability — detecting even the most minute seismic variations — while also serving as an advanced surveying tool for difficult, hard-to-reach locations.
