by WRAL TechWire — June 1, 2021 . AURORA – The Canadian company Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE, TSX: NTR) will install the Cat® Command for Dozing remote-control system at its phosphate facility in Aurora, N.C., in a move that the company calls a first-in-the-industry implementation that will enhance worker safety and improve reliability. The technology enables workers to operate bulldozers from an indoor control station, removing workers from potential risk. Nutrien’s Aurora, N.C. facility is the largest mining site to implement this non-line of sight remote-control system for D8 bulldozers, the company said in a statement. “We’ve also experienced other benefits, such as a better environment for operators and improved productivity and reliability,” said Mike Dirham, Vice President of Nutrien’s Phosphate Operations, in a statement. “We’re excited to continue using technology at our sites to improve our ability to reduce risks and reliably produce the phosphate products our customers need.”
