In this study, we proposed a diagnostics and assessment model for mining sites that can evaluate the smart mining technology level in a systematic and structured way. For this, the maturity of the smart mining was defined, and detailed assessment items of the diagnostics and assessment model for smart mining were derived by considering the smart factory diagnostics and assessment model (KS X 9001-3) used in the manufacturing industry. While maintaining the existing system, the existing 46 detailed assessment items were modified to be suitable for mining. As a result, a total of 29 detailed assessment items were derived in the areas of promotion strategy, process, information system and automation, and performance. Based on this, a questionnaire was designed to diagnose the level of smart mining technology, and assessment was performed by applying it to domestic iron mines. The level of smart mining technology in the study area was found to be level 2, and it could be inferred that it was about 40% lower than the average smart level of the general manufacturing industry. In addition, by using the developed model, it was possible to recognize the weak points of the mine at each stage of the introduction, operation, and advancement of smart mining, and to suggest investment and improvement directions.

Smart Factory is one of the fastest developing and changing fourth industrial revolution fields. In particular, the degree of introduction and maturity level in the smart factory is an important part. In this paper, a cluster analysis of companies introduced smart factory was performed based on a new maturity assessment model. The 68% of 193 companies surveyed were at the basic level, with only 21% being the middle one. Most SMEs cited lack of funds as the main reason for not entering the middle one. As a result of the cluster analysis, it was found that all clusters had similar patterns but grouped into one of three levels of high, middle, and low depending on maturity level of smart factory operation, and process domain had the highest maturity and data domain was lowest among the 6 domains. Through this, analysis of more specific and quantified maturity levels can be performed using 6-domain smart factory maturity evaluation model.
