Mine Scheduling Software Upgrade
Gemcom Software International has
released Gemcom MineSched 7.1, the latest
version of its scheduling software for
surface and underground mines. Gemcom
says MineSched provides mining companies
with the capabilities they need to
develop economic, easy-to-mine schedules.
MineSched 7.1 further builds on the
system’s ease-of-use by adding industryand
user-requested enhancements that
make it simpler to operate. In this version,
surface mine schedulers have the ability
to calculate truck hours directly in the
software. This enables more accurate calculation
of fleet requirements, possibly
leading to cost savings where fleet requirements
can be reduced through more efficient
scheduling. Other MineSched 7.1
improvements include integration of all
tasks related to development and production
scheduling into the same 3-D environment;
enhanced interactive graphical
sequencing; new truck haulage capabilities;
and generation of reports on truck
hours and fleet requirements in the dashboard,
allowing for quick analysis of
changing requirements over the life of the
schedule.
