How Wingtra Gen One II Drone Offers Smart Solutions for Mining

Wingtra drones offer solutions for a variety of job sites. Broken Arrow, a Utah-based construction company, is tackling unique challenges using the Wingtra Gen One II drone in the west desert of Utah.

In this episode of The Track, Dave Cummins, SVP of Construction for Broken Arrow, joins Dennis Howard to share his success with Wingtra drones. Broken Arrow does a mixture of work, including niche jobs like clay mining.

Mining clay from a desert floor requires collecting and moving the material a number of times. This calls for a high degree of precision to avoid wasting valuable product. For instance, Dave shares how there is a clay deposit approximately five to six feet deep. Beneath this clay lies sand, which could contaminate the clay if disturbed.

To prevent this, the Wingtra Gen One II drone measures surfaces and monitors quantities, keeping operators informed about the volumes they are moving, ensuring balanced, efficient operations. With their Wingtra drone, guesswork and estimation are things of the past for Broken Arrow. Out in the clay flats of Utah’s west desert, RDO Equipment Co., Broken Arrow and Wingtra are a perfect combination for a unique job.
