A subsidiary of Delta Dunia Makmur, PT Bukit Teknologi Digital (BTech), has partnered with The University of Queensland (UQ) to enhance innovation and sustainability in the mining sector.
BTech's President Director, Endang Veronica, stated that this collaboration marks an important milestone in the company's journey to deliver cutting-edge technological solutions for the mining industry.
"Collaboration with The University of Queensland strengthens our commitment to innovation and sets new standards for reliability and sustainability in the industry," said Endang, as quoted on Sunday (November 17).
This partnership will focus on developing a framework for Asset Health Indicators, which will provide accurate estimates of the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of critical heavy equipment components. This will enhance maintenance efficiency, reduce unexpected downtime, and lower repair costs.
The University of Queensland was chosen due to its status as a leading research university with a strong focus on high-quality, cross-disciplinary global collaborations with both public and private organizations.
The university's School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering has deep expertise in mining-related research, particularly in the areas of RUL and Predictive Maintenance.
Earlier, Delta Dunia Group also signed an umbrella agreement with the university on September 20, 2024, as part of a broader initiative to strengthen research and innovation collaboration between Indonesia and Australia.
This collaboration is expected to provide significant benefits for stakeholders in both countries, accelerating progress in sustainable mining practices and technological innovation.
