Operator Independent Truck Dispatch System (OITDS) for open-cast mines

OITDS (Operator Independent Truck Dispatch System) assigns every dumper to the best shovel in real time using GPS and a dispatch algorithm, not operator judgement. At Indian open-cast cement and steel mines, Minocular OITDS has raised fleet and excavator efficiency by 8 to 17% and cut operating costs by 2.5 to 9%.

The dispatch loop, automated.

Every dumper reports its position and payload as it works. The engine re-plans the whole loop of load, haul, dump and return, and sends the next assignment to the cab before the operator has to ask for it.

Hardware in the cab. Intelligence in the cloud.
