In the development of new technologies, we strive for maximum safety, performance and reliability while maintaining efficient operation of the extraction, processing and material handling equipment. Engineering services and simulation software from ESI ITI support you reliably in the development and optimization of your machinery along the entire process chain of mining activities.
Moving large amounts of bulk materials in mining poses extreme challenges to man and machinery. Whether for surface or underground mining, with continuous techniques or “Truck and Shovel” – such machinery is often part of entire process chains. High functional and operational safety as well as low levels of vibration, little wear effects and high energy efficiency during operation are key factors in the global competition between manufacturers as well as operators of mining and bulk material handling equipment.
In order to master the enormous challenges efficiently, engineers have been working with one of the leading simulations tools – SimulationX – and ESI ITI’s engineering services in the development of extraction, processing and material handling equipment for years. For an optimized design, they simulate hard rock, typical operating modes and critical situations, such as emergency shutdown under full load – all in a digital model, fast and without putting personnel or equipment at risk.
As a CAE engineer, software developer or control engineer, you can pursue your work and check your results in real-time all on a virtual basis even before the actual product is made. Ensure the success of your product and compare your experiences and measured data with the results from the multiphysical simulation in SimulationX. The accuracy and validity of the data will convince you.
Benefit from our experience and make your product development more efficient! Together we bring your mining and bulk material handling equipment to fruition much faster and get it out the door. We know the requirements from many different projects and have the skills to apply modern development approaches to your machinery in your specific product development environment.

Siemens Minerals utilizes ESI’s SimulationX to optimize belt conveyors. Romonta analyzes vibrational behavior in bucket wheel excavators during normal operation. Tenova Takraf increases power density of large drives and masters the dynamics of sophisticated conveyor belts already in the design phase. ABB uses simulation for drive optimizations and virtual commissioning of drive and control systems in their extraction equipment to ensure their quality and timely completion.
