TALPAC-3D
About TALPAC-3D
TALPAC-3D investigates fleet options, builds fleets, and accurately forecasts future productivity for open pit mining operations. It is the modern evolution of RPMGlobal's legacy TALPAC product — originally released in 1979 and now updated with a game-inspired 3D user interface that makes fleet productivity modeling significantly more accessible.
TALPAC-3D calculates equipment productivity over operating hours, shifts, and years, including total cycle time components: travel, dump, spot, loading, and queue. It differs from HAULSIM in that it is a faster productivity calculation tool rather than a full discrete event simulator — making it the entry-level simulation product in RPMGlobal's Intelligent Simulation suite and a stepping stone toward HAULSIM's full DES capabilities.
The software targets mining engineers and planners who need rapid fleet productivity estimates for feasibility, budgeting, or operational benchmarking. It is particularly useful for early-stage project planning and for operations that do not require the complexity of a full DES model.

3DEXPERIENCE GEOVIA
by Dassault Systèmes
The 3DEXPERIENCE GEOVIA platform is Dassault's next-generation cloud-based mining solution providing a comprehensive, real-time view of mine business activity and operations. It hosts specialised roles covering the full mine lifecycle: Geology Modeler, Pit Optimizer, Strategic Mine Planner, Surface and Underground Mine Designer, and a full suite of caving roles including Cave Footprint Finder, Cave Planning Manager, Cave Scheduler, and Cave Management System.
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.
