Dragline Simulation
The Dragline Simulator first developed in 1981 has evolved over the last 33 years. Filling the need for an effective cross-section planning tool, the Dragline Simulator has solved mining issues in the most complex operations in Australia. The Dragline Simulator incorporates powerful blasting analysis and simulation. Using a parametric approach to blast definition ensures accurate and fast blast simulation. Dump constraint planning is fast and effective due to innovative 2.5D modelling. Planning with the Dragline Simulator reduces planning time and empowers the engineer. It provides a superior result by examining many options.
Features
-
Flexible Multi-Pass Planning.
Handling multi-pass planning is made simple using intuitive stage by stage display. This allows the engineer to both focus on the problem and communicate the solution effectively.
-
User Controlled Cross-Section Planning.
The engineer enjoys unparalleled design flexibility with the Dragline Simulator.
2.5D Volumes.
The innovative 2.5D design allows the Engineer to handle 3D problems in a fraction of the time taken for 3D modelling. Designs allow for corners, ramps, end-walls and carrying waste. This makes access design possible without generating a full 3D model.
Equipment, Fleet & System Productivity.
Cross sectioning power is matched with the unrivalled flexibility of spreadsheet calculation. The result is powerful and auditable.
Realistic Blast Shape Generation.
Blast shape generation is fast and uncomplicated. Blast parameters can be obtained from previous studies or derived from actual blasts onsite. Blast simulation can simulate the effect of changing pit geometry or blasting attributes.
Cross-Section Import
The Dragline Simulator can import any DXF. In addition sections can be modified and duplicated to meet the requirements of the engineer.
Differential Swell Factors.
Modelled swell factors are fully adjustable to model varying mining methods. Each swell factor is modelled and stored with the dump section.
