Real time 3D stockyard visualisations that track and predict grade

Predict and address off-spec shipments before they are filled

Intuitive tools help ensure delivery on specification
Designed and implemented for the mining industry

Capabilities

StacksOn™ is driving savings worth millions

1.

Intuitive Visualisation

Immersive visualization and smooth controls lead to excellent operational awareness and minimal learning curve.

2.

Detailed Tooling

The user can get detailed information about any product in the yard by simply pointing at it.

  • Grade distribution graphs
  • Custom region selection
  • Stacked time selection
  • Reclaim batch prediction
3.

Accurate & Reliable

  • Proven to have impressively accurate modelling of product location and analyte distribution
  • Provides what is likely the most accurate stockyard tonnages you have access to
4.

Intuitive Yard Investigations

  • Direct grade, operability and reclaim rate comparisons between current operation and proposed operation
  • Allows you to know the exact changes to grade that will accompany a yard philosophy change before implementing
  • Has led to impressive increases in yard throughput in the real word
5.

Real Time Data

Real time data to keep you informed:

  • Real time feed of the material composition each reclaimer is reclaiming
  • Likely the most accurate tonnages you have access to per stockpile and bench
  • Material properties per stockpile and bench
  • Material properties per reclaim batch including predicted reclaim batch
6.

Sophisticated Predictions

Know what you will get before you start reclaiming:

  • StacksOn™ is able to provide the statistics for a batch before it is reclaimed
  • Make changes to hit your grade targets before committing
  • Compare multiple different reclaim algorithms, parameters and stockpile blends to ensure optimal reclaiming of stockpiles
7.

Track Any Number of Material Properties

StacksOn™ can track many different material properties into and out of the stockyard including:

  • Product type
  • Product grade
  • Contaminants
  • Stacked time

Case Study

Visibility = profitability

StacksOnTM is in active use across a number of stockyards increasing throughput and reducing product variability.

Ship Tonnes Faster

BHP wanted to speed up their train loading times, increase their yard capacity and limit the number of times their mobile machines were waiting for a place to stack and reclaim.

“StacksOn™ allows better decision making, and improved stability and performance, and we’re seeing improved product stability and better visibility of mine to plant grade.“
Pieter Fourie
Manager Processing Production in Jimblebar

01. The Discovery Phase

StacksOn™ was able to accurately model what the yard would have looked like if the exact same product was stacked at the exact same rate but using the new yard operating philosophy.

02. The Process

StacksOn™ produced a video and interactive graph and tabulated breakdown showing the actual chemical breakdown of each rake alongside what that rake would have contained if the exact same product was stacked and reclaimed in the proposed operation.

03. The Result

The client reported a significant reduction in the average amount of time the reclaimer took to fill a train as well as a reduction in overall grade variability within the stockyard thanks to StacksOn™.
