Nanotechnological sensor monitors metal detachments from mechanical mining shovels in real time. The solution improves processes and the safety of workers. It also increases the useful life of mining equipment. A problem present in the crushing process is the grinding of metallic elements from the teeth of mechanical mining shovels. For this reason, Cedenna presented a new technological solution to detect the fall of these teeth, avoiding accidents and work stoppages.

"When we think of Christmas, the last thing that usually comes to mind is nanotechnology. Twinkling lights, perfectly wrapped presents, shiny ornaments on the tree and cutting-edge gadgets seem more like the product of Christmas magic than scientific advances. However, this invisible magic has a name: nanotechnology."
