|---|---|
Vertical | Material from the Schedule Solid will be depleted vertically and repositioned in the void that exists between the Production Surface and Schedule Solid. This method honours the volume of the void and the volume filling it. Once the void has been filled, any excess material will occupy the footprint of the original solid but at a reduced height. 
|
Horizontal | Material from the Schedule Solid will be depleted horizontally and repositioned in the void that exists between the Production Surface and Schedule Solid. Material will fill the void in the opposite direction as the solid is being depleted. This method honours the volume of the void and the volume filling into it. Once the void has been filled, any excess material will be left at its original height but occupy a reduced footprint of the original solid. Note the software does its best to guess the direction; the user has no direct control over direction. 
|
Forced | Material from the Schedule Solid will be repositioned in the void that exists between the Production Surface and Schedule Solid. This method does not honour the volume of the void and the volume of material going into it. Once the void has been filled, any excess material will be thrown away.  |
Haul Infinity
Battery Trucks
Haul Infinity now has support for a new feature, handling trucks that use batteries as a power source instead of the conventional diesel (or some other form of hydrocarbon), including supporting the concept of regenerative braking.
The support for these trucks includes both the tracking of battery usage over a haulage cycle:
...
The support also includes accounting for the time taken to recharge the trucks between hauls if needed, and including this in the cycle time analysis:
...
These values are also then exported to Production Scheduler and Tactical Scheduler for analysis of factors such as the total number of recharges in a given period.
