SK Godelius
Chilean mining automation and robotics firm specializing in teleoperation, remote control, and autonomous systems for open-pit and underground mining.
SK Godelius is an engineering and robotics company headquartered in Las Condes, Santiago de Chile, founded in 2011 as part of the Sigdo Koppers Group — one of Chile's largest industrial conglomerates. The company was established at a time when advances in artificial intelligence, unstructured robotics, high-capacity networks, and low-latency communications were making entirely new modes of mining operation viable.
SK Godelius conceives, develops, manufactures, integrates, implements, and operates engineering solutions related to automation, teleoperation, robotization, and the connectivity of large machines, vehicles, robots, and processes in both open-pit and underground mining environments. The company's mission is to improve the safety, productivity, and sustainability of mining operations through advanced technology.
Core service areas include teleoperation of heavy mining equipment (bucketwheels, stackers, spreaders), robotic inspection and sampling systems for hazardous environments, mine site network connectivity infrastructure, and autonomous systems integration. SK Godelius is recognized as a global leader in teleoperated projects for the mining sector.
The company has delivered significant projects for major mining operators. Deployed systems include remote operation of bucketwheels for Codelco at Chuquicamata mine, stackers for Codelco at Chuquicamata and Radomiro Tomic mine sites, BHP's Spence mine site, and spreaders for Codelco at the Gabriela Mistral mine site — all in Chile.
SK Godelius has expanded internationally, maintaining offices in Canada (at NORCAT innovation hub in Sudbury, Ontario) and Australia, enabling the company to serve mining operations across the Americas and beyond. In Canada, the company has signed agreements with Vale for operations in the Sudbury region. The company showcased its robotics capabilities at Expomin 2025, Latin America's largest mining exhibition.
As a subsidiary of Sigdo Koppers, SK Godelius benefits from the financial strength and industrial network of a large Chilean conglomerate while maintaining focused expertise in the narrow but critical domain of mining robotics and remote automation.
