1 Load and Haul Fleet Selection Based on Fixed Plant Production

2 Load and Haul Fleet Selection Based on Fixed Plant Production

3 Ways to Estimate Productivity !!

4 The typical view is machine centred …

5 What are we going to do ? Review an approach which uses Crusher Output to drive fleet selection. Use a simple spreadsheet to manage this process e.g. no bunching or cycle mismatch included. Tie in the relevant concepts of earth and rock moving into this process. Seek to reinforces the outlook that You can’t Manage what you don’t Measure !

6 Key Questions Addressed
What are the Production Targets and Rates for Fixed Plant? How much Time is Available? What Primary Load & Haul Production is required? How much of an Hour does the Loading Tool spend Loading? What is the Load Area Production Rate ? What are the Cycle Times for Haulers and Loading Tool? What is the Match of Loading Tool and Haulers ? What is the Key Characteristic of the Material? What does our Reality look like?

13 Work Days per Year Full Days 220 days Partial Days 48 days
Partial Day Factor 0.50

14 Load & Haul Work Hours per Day

15 Load & Haul Work Hours per Day
Load and Haul Scheduled Hours / Day 10 hours less Non Operational Time Mobilisation Toolbox Talk - Inspect - Transit minutes Transit - Refuel - Shut Down 20 minutes Breaks including Transit time AM / PM Breaks minutes Lunch minutes Subtotal of Non Operational Time hours less Non Primary Load and Haul Stock movement hours Overburden hours Subtotal Non-Primary Load and Haul hours Work Hours per Day hours

16 Job Efficiency / Work Minutes per Work Hour
Job Efficiency is one of the most complex elements of estimating production since it is influenced by factors such as operator skill, minor repairs and adjustments, personal delays and delays caused by job layout. An approximation of efficiency, if no job data is available, is given below. Efficiency Operation Working Hour Factor Day 50 minute hour Night 45 minute hour These factors do not account for delays due to weather or machine downtime for maintenance and repairs.You must account for such factors based on experience and local conditions. What about time lost for watering the load area ?

24 Bucket Fill Factor (BFF) BFF as % of Heaped Capacity
Material Moist Loam Sand and Gravel Mix Rock - Well Blasted Rock - Poorly Blasted 12 –20mm Aggregate BFF as % of Heaped Capacity A % B % C % % This overhead gives a rough idea of the kinds of fill factors you can expect in various types of materials. This can also be found in the Performance Handbook. When doing calculations, we typically use the midpoint of the range. A B C BFF for Wheel Loader buckets tend to be 5 – 10 % higher than Excavator buckets due to different angles of repose for SAE rating. PHB 42 Pages 4-156, 9-161
