Hi Antony

Production of earthworks is controlled by the disposal rate of the excavated material.

This is calculated by the volume of the haul units and the distance travelled - controlled by the capacity of the haul roads.

Once that has been established the excavating kit can be set from the manufacturers catalogues - set at 120% of the disposal rate.

The digger can wait a bit but the disposal must be non stop.

Best regards
