Right-size Your Fleet Before You Commit the Capital.

Fleet sizing decisions in underground mining are rarely tested before the commitment is made. Adding a truck seems logical. But underground, congestion often costs more than the extra capacity gains. Rate-based scheduling tools can't show you that before the machine is on site.

This simulation study shows how idoba.sim can be used to evaluate truck, loader, and production front interactions underground and how agent-based simulation can surface the queuing patterns, idle time, and throughput constraints that fixed-rate calculations often miss.

The guide is for mining people making decisions about the mine.

The Experience of Operators, Encoded in Software.

We build purpose-built industrial AI and simulation products for mining and metals. We combine operational experience with site data and specialist models to bring critical operating decisions forward, giving site teams more time to investigate, compare, and act while they can still change the outcome.
