Crushers

Every project must have at least one crusher, which represents a transformation of an input material (such as mined tonnes) into an output material (such as product tonnes).

List of crushers used in a project is given in the Crushers step.

Report Feedable Stocks

Used to select if crusher will be used to report feedable stock.

If one crusher is predecessor to another, then feedable stocks will report tonnes that are before the first crusher at both crushers.

Example: Blasted blocks in the pit will be reported as feedable for a primary crusher as well as the main plant. This is because the tonnes must go through the primary to get through to the main plant.

To add crushers:

  • Go to Haul Infinity > Network tab:

    • Select a node, right-click and promote to Crusher.

  • Go to back to APS > Setup tab > Site Lists step > Crushers field:

    • press the blue plus icon to add a crusher.

  • Go to the Setup tab > Crushers step:

    • select a capacity field from the drop-down.

Crushers must be represented by a node in Haul Infinity. The node name must follow the convention “Crushers/myCrusherName”.
