TS. Truck Types

Every project must have at least one truck type, which is used to calculate fleet numbers, engine hours and fuel burn.

Truck Types step overview

To add a truck type:

  1. Go to Haul Infinity > Trucks step.

    1. Find or import a truck definition, example CAT785.

    2. Remove any spaces from the truck name. 

  2. Go to the Setup tab in ATS > Truck Types step.

    1. Press the green plus icon to add a new truck.

    2. Rename it to match the Haul Infinity name.

  • Column Availability Types to Specify is used to convert calendar time to productive time and engine hours. 

  • Column Cycle Time Factor Field is used to read a value from the block model, so cycle times can be factored faster or slower for different areas. 

  • Flag in Adjust Cycle Time Factor by Time introduces a new row in the calendar, so cycle times can be factored faster or slower in different periods (ie. wet weather period). 

Truck definitions must be present in Haul Infinity in order for the scheduler to reference them.
