Queue Management
Reduce wait times and congestion to deploy your fleet when and where needed most.
Overview
REDUCE WAIT TIMES AND CONGESTION TO DEPLOY YOUR FLEET WHEN AND WHERE NEEDED MOST
Frequent mining equipment breakdowns are common with harsh operating conditions and heavy loads on-site. However, when these breakdowns are poorly managed, they leave a knock-on effect in the load and haul process with traffic congestion and queues at various loading points. The consequences of these long queues add up quickly, compounding in delays and reduced efficiency across your mining operations.
Effective communication with dispatchers, comprehensive mine planning, training for equipment operators, and analysis of real-time data are crucial ingredients to coordinating load and haul processes to manage long queues. With sufficient contingency planning and risk mitigation to account for scenarios including weather conditions, equipment breakdowns and uneven distributions of material at loading points, mine operators can more proactively prevent delays.
