(ABB: Zurich) — ABB is launching a new digital suite of applications for hoist monitoring and optimization, now rebranded to ABB Ability Smart Hoisting, which opens it up for further integration to other cloud solutions and extended offerings that significantly increase the operational performance and reliability of mine hoists.
ABB has been a leader in developing world-class hoisting solutions for more than 130 years. Powered by electricity with the possibility to run off renewable energy sources, hoists are very much a future-forward solution for enabling the sustainable transformation. To date, ABB has delivered more than 1,000 hoisting solutions globally. With complete mine hoist systems, customers can benefit from low life-cycle cost, high reliability and system availability, short project execution time, and a single source of supply for complete systems, including service and spare parts.
ABB Ability Smart Hoisting is designed to significantly improve the uptime, availability, reliability, performance, and productivity of hoists. By incorporating advanced monitoring features, the system provides actionable information on critical KPIs, ensuring better decision-making and optimization of hoisting operations. The automatic collection, monitoring, and analysis of data will enable mining companies to increase production performance, identify potential functional safety hazards, and optimize maintenance scheduling.

The combination of innovative features and improved cybersecurity makes this solution a unique and valuable tool in the underground mining industry. Its predictive maintenance capabilities help increase standards and drive innovation, leading to more sustainable and profitable mining operations.
“The new and enhanced Smart Hoisting solution offers a step change in the operational performance of mine hoists,” says Charles Bennett, global service manager for hoisting at ABB. “From improved uptime, reduced environmental footprint, and increased monitoring services, this new solution brings enormous benefits to the industry at an important time. Through the integration of predictive maintenance and advanced monitoring, the evolved ABB Ability Smart Hoisting solution marks a pivotal milestone in redefining the performance benchmarks for mine hoists. This transformative solution addresses industry challenges comprehensively, fostering heightened uptime, sustainability, and operational resilience.”
Key features of the new ABB Ability Smart Hoisting solution include:
The traditional predictive maintenance approach relies on manual data collection and analysis over a short period of time. Intermittent issues can stay hidden or only be identified later, giving subject-matter experts (SMEs) little time to program interventions exactly when needed. Additionally, manual collection and data analysis consume a significant amount of time for SMEs, preventing them from focusing on strategic performance management tasks.
