Autonomy past the shift change.
Mining haul fleets running through every shift. Komatsu KOMTRAX telematics on every loader. Sandvik AutoMine for sub-surface ops. Caterpillar Cat Command pushing toward 2,000+ autonomous mining trucks by 2030. Ponsse Opti 5G in the forest. Ipnops Industry orchestrates these OEM autonomy layers, the customer's mining-execution stack, and the operational realities of running heavy iron in remote locations.

Use cases
What the platform actually does, here.
Autonomous-haul orchestration
Cat MineStar Command for hauling has been in commercial deployment for over a decade. Komatsu Frontrunner and Sandvik AutoMine cover similar ground. Ipnops Industry sits above the OEM autonomy layer, orchestrates fleet dispatch + shift handoff + preventive-service windows, integrates with mining-execution and mine-planning systems, and provides a unified ops picture for mixed-vendor fleets (Caterpillar adapted Cat autonomous tech for the Komatsu 930E precisely because operators want this).
Fleet telematics + asset health
CAT VisionLink, Komatsu KOMTRAX, John Deere TimberManager, Volvo CareTrack — vendor telematics ingested into a unified asset graph. TimesFM forecasts fluid temperatures, vibration trends, and remaining-useful-life on rotating components. Predictive maintenance triggers shop visits before the failure happens, reclaiming uptime that's measured in shifts, not minutes.
Mining + construction
The mobile-mining-equipment market is growing from $75B in 2026 to a projected $97.5B by 2030 — driven by autonomous-fleet investment, emission reduction, and smart-mining initiatives. Construction is following the same curve at a lag. Ipnops Industry provides the intelligence layer above the OEM autonomy stack so the operator's view doesn't fragment by vendor.
Forestry harvesters + forwarders
Ponsse Opti 5G, John Deere TimberMatic, Komatsu Forest Machine Control — control systems already integrate GPS, telematics, and analytics. Ipnops Industry adds the cross-fleet intelligence layer: which harvesters need preventive servicing first, which forest blocks are highest-yield given current weather, where the bottlenecks are between cut and forwarding.
Marine + rail
Heavy-marine assets (dredgers, port cranes, tugs) and rail (locomotives, MOW equipment) increasingly look like the mining/construction telemetry pattern. The platform abstracts these into the same asset graph and runs the same predictive-maintenance + dispatch-optimisation stack across them.
Operator + remote-supervision UX
Heavy machinery typically retains a human in the supervisory loop, not the cab. The platform's UX is designed for the supervisor: concurrent fleet view, anomaly triage, route adjustment, scheduled preventive-service injection, and a replay of every dispatch decision the autonomy layer made.
How a deployment runs
From OEM telematics to fleet autonomy.
- 01
Phase 1: Telematics ingestion (CAT VisionLink, Komatsu KOMTRAX, Deere ops centre, Volvo CareTrack). Unified asset graph. Read-only baseline.
- 02
Phase 2: Predictive-maintenance triggers across fleet. Cross-vendor anomaly detection on rotating-component vibration + acoustic + thermal signatures.
- 03
Phase 3: OEM-autonomy orchestration: Cat MineStar / Komatsu Frontrunner / Sandvik AutoMine commands brokered by the agent under the customer's mine-plan + safety envelope.
- 04
Phase 4: Cross-vendor mixed-fleet operation, shift-handoff automation, preventive-service interleaving, replay-grade decision logs.
