Title of treatise: Cost management of the availability and utilization of mining earth moving equipment Name of author: E J P Balt Name of study leader: Mr G Basson Institution: Faculty of Engineering Built Environment Information Technology University of Pretoria Date: January 2007 The cost structure for the maintenance and repair contract is based on an equipment availability of ninety
The availability and the utilisation of drill rigs have great impact on the output of a mine. These can be optimised by reducing the downtimes and operational delays to ensure high availability
Equipment used in the mining facility of Barrick Gold requires regular maintenance and The confidence intervals of the equipment queue time and utilization have been studied in detail by varying the number of bays used. and 5) maximize equipment availability (Cmore consortium meeting, 2007). A detailed simulation model has been
From equation 3, it is obvious that availability and utilization directly affect the production, Figure 3 also shows the synchronism amongst availability, utilization and production. As such, with the diminishing values of availability and utilization, the production from draglines has also revealed down trend.

The production performance of mining equipment depends on its availability and utilization. Hence it is necessary to determine the percentage availability and utilization of machinery with an aim to improve the same. Different mines are following different terms and maintaining different information.

Equipment utilization, sometimes referred to as asset utilization, is a measurement of the use and performance of site machinery, which assists businesses to improve jobsite productivity and reduce the cost of equipment rental and project delays.
mining equipment: a case study by H. Fourie* 54''121 In mechanized mining, poor equipment efficiency (availability, utilization, productivity, and quality) can endanger the success of the operation. This case study will show how an initiative to improve equipment performance developed into a comprehensive turnaround plan for the mine that placed
Availability is an Operations parameter as, presumably, if the equipment is available 85% of the time, we are producing at 85% of the equipment''s technical limit. This usually equates to the financial performance of the asset.
Thus the availability and utilization of tools and equipment deserve serious attention for effective teaching and learning of garment making. Ozoagulu (1998) in Eze (2005) posited that to give training that will have impact on students, require an effective utilization of tools and equipment. Nigerian
What is TEEP? TEEP (Total Effective Equipment Performance) is a performance metric that provides insights as to the true capacity of your manufacturing operation. It takes account both Equipment Losses (as measured by OEE) and Schedule Losses (as measured by Utilization).. TEEP is calculated by multiplying four factors: Availability, Performance, Quality, and Utilization.
mining equipment i s usually measured using parameters such as availability and utilisation. International Journal of Science, Environme nt ISSN (O)
that the actual utilization percentage achieved by the equipment is significantly lower than the provided availability percentage of the equipment. The main data collection method used was observing the maintenance and repair activities pertaining to the mining earth moving equipment and the phenomena being researched.
Maintenance is the factor that offers mining companies the best opportunity to influence and control the performance and availability of their equipment, say Abelardo Flores and Jim McCerty, coauthors of Performance Metrics for Mobile Mining Equipment, a guideline created to assist mining equipment users in the
Equipment services being performed at short notice, in an unplanned manner, increasing the downtime associated with these services. These better mining organisations are beginning to focus less on the traditional measures of equipment performance availability and utilisation, and are starting structured programs to address reliability issues.
Conducting an availability assessment can be an extremely useful tool for mine operators in effort to reduce operating and production costs. For example, an increase of availability in a piece of equipment by 1 % may result in a profit gain between %. Equipment availability is typically calculated using the equation below:
