Breaking new ground in underground mining processes, Aquila graduate Sarvesh Singh has taken his expertise to an international stage. His innovative approach to simplifying complex longwall operations has not only enhanced safety and efficiency but also earned global recognition.
Sarvesh has revolutionised detection systems by developing a highly efficient solution to minimise longwall downtime. By harnessing multiple camera streams from the Aquila longwall, his system can automatically detect blockages in real time. Within just one second of identifying an issue, the system triggers automated alerts, addressing operational inefficiencies and mitigating potential safety risks.
This cutting-edge project was Sarvesh’s Business Improvement (BI) initiative, a key component of Anglo American’s second-year graduate program. Each graduate is tasked with developing a project tied to their field of expertise, aiming to drive tangible improvements. Sarvesh’s project not only clinched top honours in the Australian competition but also earned runner-up at Anglo American’s prestigious Global Graduate Business Improvement Symposium last year.
Presenting alongside graduates from across Anglo American’s global operations, Sarvesh demonstrated how innovative thinking and practical application could transform industry challenges into streamlined solutions. His work exemplifies how a focus on business improvement can have far-reaching impacts, enhancing both operational efficiency and workplace safety.
