Queuing theory aims firstly to describe a queuing system, and secondly, to find a balance between service and customers (short or non-existent queues equate to satisfied customers) and economic considerations (additional servers come at a cost).

We secured a project at one of South Africa’s leading animal feed manufacturers, having a production capacity of approximately 1 million tons per year. They have seven strategically located mills and five depots across the country

In this project, a simulation model was completed for large stockpile operations and train loading facility within South Africa. The model included train arrivals, loading, slots, capacity evaluation and schedule optimisation.

How Predictive Asset Intelligence Improved Reliability and Reduced Unplanned Downtime at Africa's Largest Gold Mine

An Anglo-American Platinum (Anglo)’s room and pillar platinum mine is in the process of designing two new declines. As part of this process a dynamic simulation model for both rock and personnel logistics was commissioned. SET was appointed to develop these models.
