With Vulcan 9 we’ve provided tools that make customers’ work easier and have also set up a platform to deliver wow factor in the future. “Maptek maintains its focus on providing operations with decision support tools that play a key role in driving productivity improvements,” concluded Gonzalez. A new algorithm provides a better estimation for distances based on actual bench geometry at the time of mine haulage.
Strip ratios can be calculated from user-defined block model variables, and strip ratio calculations can be limited to a lowest mineable level, based on elevation, depth, surface or horizon floor.Įnhanced parameters for haul segments take into account the effect of rolling resistance as well as gradient on haulage route times. Pit solids can be cut up by the highwall templates, block lines, and horizons to enable individual solids to be created for reserving against a Vulcan HARP model. The Locally Varying Anisotropy (LVA) method can be applied to account for arbitrary search paths for grade estimation, improving results when modelling complex stratiform orebodies.Įnhancements to underground ring design and underground mine design tools are also included.Ī new tool for designing highwall ramps will save time, with the sequence of designs saved and easily replicated on different strips. Instead of re-running reserves based on a new design, a single mouse-over on a point shows new reserve information.Ī new expressions tool assigns the properties of an object as attributes, for example, tonnage and grade from a block model can be stored against the design object and updated on demand. Any edits are automatically updated in the downstream process. When creating the truck library, there is a step where i am asked to define truck speeds uphill and downhill according to the grade of the road. The new object attributes feature in Vulcan 9 means that unlimited information about an object is available on demand for making better decisions. Hi All, I am trying to run a Route Cycle estimation within Maptek Vulcan Haulage profile module. Geologists can spend more time refining interpretations, rather than generating basic models. Users will be able to combine implicit modelling with existing Vulcan tools to create their own approach for generating complex 3D surfaces. The amount of data users can load and manipulate is only restricted by their hardware.” “Vulcan 9 has new and improved capabilities for modelling, object attribution, underground design, and a completely new graphics engine.
“Vulcan 9 gives users the freedom to apply their expertise to solve tasks in the way they want,” said Vulcan Product Manager, Eric Gonzalez.
MAPTEK VULCAN UNITS SOFTWARE
New functionality in Vulcan 9 targets specific applications in resource modelling and underground design alongside improvements to software architecture to manage massive databases. Maptek has announced the latest version of its Vulcan software, version 9.
