Mincom MineScape - Drill & Blast
Mincom MineScape Drill & Blast provides the blast design engineer with an interactive 3D CAD environment within which an optimum blast can be quickly laid out, and the holes projected to the surfaces. Hole layout reports can be exported to GPS-equipped drill rigs. Drill & Blast is integrated with MineScape to produce quick blast exclusion zones.
Mincom MineScape Drill & Blast:
- Creates designs from current survey/mine plans utilizing the geological model and outputs directly to survey data recorders and/or board drill systems. There is therefore no possibility of errors from data currency or transcription.
- Provides total CAD directed control over every aspect of blast pattern charging down to individual hole components.
- Includes a full range of standard plots and reports, plus the ability to design site-specific output.
- Ensures the reliability of results through the rigorous application of PPV (peak particle velocity) calculations, including powder factors.
- Tests a variety of patterns and charging options to optimize blast performance. A standardized, professional report is produced.
- Decreases the time required to design new blasts while improving reliability and control over layout and charging.
- Complies with requirements for PPV calculations and enables the ready tracking of consumables and results against a plan.
- Provides the capability to rapidly test and verify a range of charging and pattern options to determine an optimum design.
