Optimine is partnering with West81 Engineering to build a hardware-in-the-loop simulation. This simulation setup uses MATLAB Simulink, a safety-rated PLC, and a control algorithm. This solution improves controllability and speed of the dumping cycle used in a mining operation.
Built by Dan Young, Nate Marttunen, Caitlin Fuller, Joseph Petrasek, Iva Stefanovic, and Vince Ventresca from Optimine. Advised by Dr. Alan Wassyng from McMaster and John Stapleton from West81 Engineering.
