RCT is thrilled to announce the release of their new Control Master ATX2200 series remote control system.
Safety and efficiency are key issues for the mining industry. Control systems such as the CM ATX2200 series enable the operators to control mobile mining equipment from a safe distance either by Line-of-Sight, Teleremote or Guidance control.
The response to the considerable improvements to the weight, comfort and ease of use of the newly release device from an experienced mining professional was positively summed up with the exclamation, “This is awesome, I could use it all day”.
The light weight, robust and ergonomic design, assists in enabling Line-of-Sight operators to work more productively for longer periods of time. The use of familiar graphics and international symbols clearly displayed on a colour monitor with audible alarms enables easy operator feedback and control, while the 16 hours of extended battery life is a key improvement, allowing continuous use over an extended period of time.
The newly released Control Master ATX2200 series remotes incorporate technology which is compliant in all regions across the globe and has been specifically designed to meet key industry requirements.
It provides a simple and cost effective path towards full automation, being geared for Line-of-Sight and Portable Remote Control, to Teleremote and Guidance applications.

The new ATX2200 series demonstrates this with relevance for mining projects today, while providing a clear path for future improvements and technology advancements. It maintains RCT’s roadmap of technology continuity to assist customers in improving their mining production through remote control solutions.
