— ABSTRACT Despite the upward trend in using semi-mobile in-pit crushing and conveying system (SMIPCC), some mining companies still hesitate to use SMIPCC in their operations. Therefore, a framework is needed to facilitate decision-making between SMIPCC and truck and shovel system (TS) and satisfy the location and relocation time …
— In-Pit Crushing and Conveying (IPCC) systems are receiving more attention today due to current characteristics of open-pit mining operations and what is expected to occur in the future. Today, it has become more necessary than ever to reduce the cost of truck haulage, which accounts for roughly half the operating costs of mining operation.
This work used scenario analysis to determine the optimum transition depth between a truck and shovel (TS) system and a SMIPCC system, and indicates that the second scenario, at a depth of 335 m, results in the lowest cumulative discounted cost (CDC). One of the most challenging aspects in semi-mobile in-pit crushing and conveying (SMIPCC) system …

Semi-Mobile In-Pit Crushing and Conveying (SMIPCC) systems are similar to fixed systems in that the crushing unit remains in one location for a period of time, with a conventional truck haulage method feeding it. However, the time that the crushing unit remains in place is significantly shorter. Crushers are designed to be modular, such that ...

— The group pointed out that in competent material, natural pockets are enough for a semi-mobile installation, being "strategically located in the pit to reduce the haul distance of dump trucks", with the crushing plant matched to truck size.ThyssenKrupp has a unique IPCC heritage, having put in arguably the first mobile IPCC system at ...
— In-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC) systems have attracted more interest among miners as an alternative to the conventional truck-shovel transportation system. The semi-mobile IPCC (SMIPCC) system is a well-suited type of IPCC system in open-pit mining projects because of its relocation nature.
One of the most challenging aspects in semi-mobile in-pit crushing and conveying (SMIPCC) system design is determining the optimum depth at which to change from a purely truck-based haulage system to a conveyor-based haulage system. We used scenario analysis to determine the optimum transition depth between a truck and shovel (TS) …
