Deswik.LHS

Landform & Haulage

Understand material movement like never before with scenario-based modeling and analysis.

Key Features

INDUSTRY-LEADING HAULAGE MODELING
Deterministic model for every block of material captures variability and peak requirements for haulage and dump inventory. Exposes issues hidden by averaging single hauls across large volumes in traditional methods.
TRUCK-LIMITED HAULAGE
Dynamically models the mining and dump schedules based on the current truck fleet. TLH is also appropriate for modeling mixed-fleet haulage scenarios.
MANAGED SCENARIOS
Scenario manager gives efficient evaluation of haulage variables, refine strategies and identify value drivers. Multiple materials in each scenario; map ROM and waste with rejects and tailings hauled or pumped in-pit.
NEW LANDFORM AND HAULAGE OPTIONS
Incorporate conveyor systems with fixed and mobile conveyor load points, modeling interaction with normal truck haulage circuits. Include trolley assist haulage options into landform scenarios.
SUPERIOR SCHEDULING FUNCTIONALITY
Input material movement schedules from multiple sources – Deswik.Sched, Deswik.Blend flow log, .csv and others. Automated updating of Deswik.Sched files with key output haulage information for reporting.
EXPANDED SCOPE AND ACCURACY
Model dragline, cast blast and dozer dumps as well as standard truck haulage or fixed and mobile conveyors. Calibrate theoretical cycle times against GPS logs of truck hauls for accurate models set to site conditions.
DETAILED DESIGN AND HAUL PATH MODELING
Generate precise in-pit and out of pit dump design solids through Deswik.CAD; trimmed to survey or detailed short term designs. Dynamic haul paths, stop signs and speed limits, rolling resistance, congestion and release dates.
POWERFUL COMMUNICATION TOOLS
Report all aspects of a haulage scenario from mining block to haul routes to dump block via animations and tabular reports. Customize reporting of individual or macro haul data, stage plan surfaces and contour plots.
ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING
Mining and dump disturbance reporting. Rehabilitation forecasting and selective material placement (acid mine drainage, tailings, etc.). Mine closure surface tools; wet weather event simulation and catchment reporting.
