Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009103305A1] Disclosed is a method for controlling longwall coal mining operations comprising a face conveyor (20), at least one extraction machine (22), and a hydraulic shield support. In said method, at least one sensor (17) is arranged on the shield support frames (10) in order to sense solid-borne noise data generated by the intervention of the extraction machine (21) in coal (35) and/or country rock (28, 29), and a cut of the extraction machine (22) into the country rock (28, 29) is determined in a computer unit that is connected thereafter on the basis of the recorded oscillation data corresponding to the generated solid-borne noise.
