Mine scheduling

Powerful scheduling solutions to integrate and optimize strategic, tactical and operational plans

Successful mine scheduling is the heartbeat of every efficient operation. Truly integrated schedules span all planning horizons and combine tasks - not only production. With Epiroc's range of scheduling and optimization tools our customers employ advanced capabilities to develop the best possible schedules in the least amount of time.

Get the most from your current resources through smart utilization algorithms and reporting

Go beyond production scheduling to avoid conflicts with construction teams, maintenance and other interruptions

Optimize for NPV, grade, load & haul and more with with powerful, fast modeling and 3D simulation

Improve short-term planning and operational control by digitally integrating planning and operational feedback

Products for Mine scheduling

Enterprise scheduling and visualization for smarter mining

Epiroc EPS is a class-leading enterprise production scheduler designed for underground and open-pit mining operations. It combines powerful Gantt chart scheduling with advanced 3D visualization, animation, and optimization capabilities. It delivers a unified platform for planning, evaluating, and communicating mine schedules across all horizons – from life-of-mine to shift-level execution.

Epiroc EPServer supports multiple users on a single schedule, enabling seamless integration of long-term and short-term scheduling horizons to minimize discrepancies and provide detailed information for informed decision-making on long-term KPIs influenced by short-term factors.

Integrate design, scheduling, and work management into ERP systems like SAP and Microsoft Dynamics for seamless operational alignment.

Visually inspect designs, critical paths, and sequencing with dynamic geometry-task linking and animated extraction sequences.

Leverage Elytica for NPV maximization, blending, equipment utilization, and predictive modelling – while evaluating geological block models in real time.

Schedule with precision. Visualize with clarity. Optimize with confidence.

Epiroc EPS empowers mining operations to integrate technical and financial planning, visualize and animate schedules, and optimize resource utilization. With dynamic connectivity, intuitive interfaces, and robust reporting, EPS transforms scheduling into a strategic advantage.
