More Information
Summary:A system for mining site production planning includes a control system configured to specify a problem-solving technique and associated optimization problem for a mining site by setting production goals for each of loading tools, processors and production arcs of the mining site, sorting the production arcs in an order based on travel distances, and modifying the order of the sorted production arcs based on the production goals for each of the loading tools, processors and production arcs. In addition, target values are set for each of the loading tools, processors and production arcs according to the order of the sorted production arcs. The control system is further configured to solve the optimization problem to produce production values for each of the loading tools, processors and production arcs based on the target values.
