HxGN MinePlan Schedule Optimizer
About HxGN MinePlan Schedule Optimizer
MinePlan Schedule Optimizer uses optimisation algorithms to determine the best mining sequence for maximum value extraction, supporting both long-term strategic scheduling and detailed tactical planning. It enables simulation of different operational scenarios — testing equipment configurations, processing capacities, and market conditions to identify robust schedules.
The tool supports stochastic planning approaches for handling geological uncertainty and market unpredictability, enabling mine planners to assess schedule risk and develop contingency strategies. It integrates with MinePlan 3D block models for comprehensive scheduling workflows and connects to Hexagon's operational systems for schedule-to-execution alignment.
Schedule Optimizer is part of the HxGN MinePlan suite and targets planning engineers at medium to large mining operations who need to optimise complex multi-variable scheduling problems across long planning horizons.

Akselos Integra
by Akselos
Akselos Integra creates sensor-calibrated, physics-based digital twins of complex engineering structures. For mining, this means creating digital replicas of stackers, reclaimers, and shiploaders — the critical bulk materials handling equipment that operates continuously at mine sites and ports and represents enormous capital investment.
AnyLogic
by AnyLogic
AnyLogic provides virtual environments for analysis, testing, and optimisation of mining activities. The Fluid Library simplifies simulation of bulk material logistics and mining processes. Users model everything from excavation plans and equipment utilisation to load-and-haul operations, processing plant logistics, and mine-to-port supply chains across commodity types.
AVEVA Dynamic Simulation
by AVEVA
AVEVA Dynamic Simulation (formerly known as DYNSIM) models real-time, time-dependent behaviour of industrial processes using first-principles equipment models with rigorous thermodynamic and fluid flow calculations. It supports engineering validation, control system testing, and operator training by replicating dynamic plant conditions during startup, shutdown, normal, and emergency operations.
