Integrated Haulage Analysis & Fleet Budgeting
GeoMine-HaulCalc (HaulCalc), provides a detailed analysis of haul routes and is an ideal fleet budgeting tool: it can be used to determine the truck fleet required to meet a target production rate or the achievable production rate based on a given truck fleet.
This module is comprised of a Road Network Manager, Fleet Manager and Haul Route Analyzer. The Road Network Manager adds a suite of road generation and editing tools to the GeoMine platform; the Fleet Manager features an extensible truck database, and the Haul Route Analyzer partitions a given road network into road segments and performs route analysis on user-selected routes.
HaulCalc Key Benefits
- Fast and Pragmatic:Analyses a haul route within seconds based on the fleet requirement and actual route conditions.
- Easy-to-Use: A suite of automatic and interactive tools for in-pit ramp generation and surface road generation make it a breeze to construct multiple alternative road networks for haulage analysis.
- Extensible: The ability to add new truck types to the built-in truck database and the allowance for multiple road networks means wide adaptability.
- Supportive:Tailored training and professional services to customize our software to suit your deposit.
