The aim of the project is to develop a prototype of the longwall shearer control system in order to eliminate or minimize undesirable and unplanned downtime in production due to exceeding the permissible gas emission values in mining areas of deep coal and lignite mines by monitoring the production process and the environment and appropriate to these conditions control of the equipment performance.
