Hardrock-Ready. Level-9 Certified. Proven.

The only Level-9 compliant Collision Prevention System purpose-built for South African Hardrock mines. Designed for fiery seams, Hardrock dust, wet roadways, and zero tolerance for risk.

ProXYmus Hardrock is the latest-generation, South African-designed Level-9 Collision Prevention System built exclusively for the harsh underground Hardrock environment. Using  advanced multi-sensor RF technology, it delivers centimetre-level proximity detection between all mining vehicles and personnel — even in wet roadways, and harsh mining conditions.

With dynamic zone shaping, predictive algorithms and virtually zero nuisance alarms, ProXYmus Hardrock is the most accurate, reliable and cost-effective solution for South African collieries to achieve full MHSA / DMR Level-9 compliance, at a fraction of the cost of imported systems.
