Ore Blending and Grade Control at ROM Stockpile

Ore Blending and Grade Control at ROM Stockpile

The GroundHog ROM Loader Software is a powerful solution designed to streamline material handling in mining operations by integrating seamlessly with wheel loaders. Equipped with VEI sensors, it tracks the bucket’s weight and position with precision, ensuring accurate loading and unloading. The system automates the blend sequence, helping to optimize the correct mix of materials. Additionally, it keeps track of stockpile balances and monitors the payload being transported to the crusher. By implementing real-time monitoring and a Time Utilization Model, GroundHog maximizes efficiency, reduces errors, and enhances productivity.

Key functionalities include:

  1. Precise Bucket Tracking: Real-time bucket position and weight tracking using VEI sensors.
  2. Automated Blend Management: Ensures proper material sequencing for optimized mill throughput.
  3. Stockpile Management: Automatically deducts material from the stockpile once moved to the crusher.
  4. Time Utilization Model: Tracks vehicle breakdowns, operator downtime, and operational shifts, improving overall productivity.

This software not only improves operational efficiency but also reduces material handling errors, thereby enhancing the overall performance of mining sites.
