Our products
We create not only specialized solutions for specific customers, but also products for individual industries on our own Amalgama Platform.
MineTwin — software for simulation and planning of mining operations
MineTwin is a configurable simulation-based decision support tool for underground and open-pit mines.
Typical challenges addressed
- Determination the real achievable production capacity of open-pit or underground mine
- Validation of mine plan feasibility
- Evaluation operational improvements
- Quantification of return on investment
- Planning of the mining equipment fleet modernization
- Planning of mining operations for all time horizons: from shift to several years
- Weekly generation of work orders
MineTwin Consider real operational constraints and parameters:
- Development and production mining
- Dynamic evaluation of stopes reachability
- Flexible rules of shift-to-shift scheduling
- Drilling, blasting and bolting
- Loading and bogging, vehicle priorities and bypass positions
- Road surface quality and slopes
- Transloading and using intermediate ore buffers
- Queuing in front of ore passes
- Scheduling rail operations and rail transportation
- Dependencies between processes in the same stope and between stopes
- Delays caused by de-watering, ventilation setup and other supporting activities
PlantTwin — a decision support tool for multiproduct manufacturing plants
PlantTwin supports decision making for strategic and medium-term production planning of factory shops, enterprises and groups of enterprises.
Typical challenges addressed
- Evaluating adequacy of productive capacity of a shop, enterprise or group of enterprises for production target delivery
- Justification of investment in modernization of existing and creation of new production facilities
- Generating a feasible schedule to complete production plan on time
- Validation of production plan feasibility using simulation modelling and Monte-Carlo analysis
- Scenario analysis of work distribution and coordination policies between plants of a holding company
PlantTwin considers:
- Hierarchical BOMs structure
- Production routes, including assembly operations
- Setup and cleaning durations
- Operating schedule of factory shops, production units and personnel
- Operations of external contractors
- Consumption and replenishment of purchased component stocks
- Sizes of production batches
- Equipment maintenance and repair schedules
- Products transportation parameters
- Buffers and storage facilities capacity
Amalgama Platform
Amalgama Platform — a framework for creating enterprise-ready simulation models and scheduling systems
Amalgama Platform is a framework for development of enterprise-ready simulation models and domain-specific decision support tools in Java programming language. The platform includes a Java simulation engine, a scheduling library, and several other libraries and Eclipse IDE plug-ins.
Program Features
- Paradigm-free approach and lightweight simulation API
- Solutions are based on structured data models, not ad-hoc point-and-click designs
- Has built-in algorithms and building blocks for scheduling logic of any complexity
- Allows to build cross-platform domain-specific simulation applications, like MineTwin, and PlantTwin
- Compatible with enterprise Java technologies
- Has functionality for unit testing of simulation models
