This article discusses the application of the Internet of Things(IoT)in mine machinery and equipment,explores the construction of smart mines,and presents a comprehensive plan for realizing the intelligentization of the entire mine production process.The construction of smart mines encompasses many fields,including the digitalization of geological and mining environments,the application of modern mining equipment,automated mining processes,infor-mational management,and networked data management.The design of the intelligent production process includes as-pects such as intelligent rock drilling,intelligent earth moving,and intelligent support.In addition,systems such as in-telligent ventilation,intelligent drainage,intelligent power supply,and underground crushing control are also indispensa-ble parts of a smart mine.Implementing these technologies and plans can significantly improve the efficiency,safety,and intelligence of mine production.
