Last week, the Montan-University of Leoben (MUL) has organised its first workshop about the production tools of the robot miner that will be developed within the ROBOMINERS project. The meeting involved both senior researchers and students and triggered discussions about the actuator, production tools and conveying system of the robot. Several conventional and non- conventional methods/concepts have been discussed and compared.
