Blastmap Surface

Updated: October 28, 2024

Product Description

Blastmap software is BME’s flagship blast design application, used by blast engineering professionals globally. Blastmap allows you to design blast patterns using its powerful tools. You can import survey data, add hole and deck parameters, specify rock types and layers, add the initiation timing design (electronic and non-electrics) and download a variety of reporting templates. Blastmap software can be used as a simulation tool for initiation timing contours, burden relief time, and hole firing sequence. With Blastmap, you’ll have a 360° view of the blast design in 3D.

Primary Benefits

  • Design a blast pattern or import an existing design from a 3rd party application.
  • Seamless integration with BME's Xplolog block data recording and AXXIS systems.
  • Detailed and a variety of reporting options available.
  • Add initiation timing design (electronic and non-electric).

 

Features

  • Import survey data of the blast block geometry, holes and surfaces.
  • Ability to import pit surfaces and triangulate hole collar elevations.
  • Import wizard to import any .txt or .xlsx data file from 3rd party software.
  • Design a blast from scratch, generate patterns, specify hole diameters and depths, add explosives, and initiation timing.
  • Specify rock types and layers. Ability to add any explosive and rock type to the program database.
  • Supports electronic and non-electric timing designs.
  • Optimised for use with AXXIS electronic delay detonators. Import or export AXXIS electronic delay detonator IDs and design timing.
  • Charge and timing designs can be based on actual hole locations.
  • Powerful contouring capabilities for blast timing, surface and floor elevations, vibration maps and energy distribution in a blast (multi- screen display capability).
  • Multiple explosive deck loading and timing capability for designing specialised blasts, such as multiple seam, through seam, stratified rock, and environmental control.
  • Import or export planned data to Xplolog blast capturing software.
  • 360 view of the blast design in 3D.
  • Export design information to a .csv file. This allows for integration with 3rd party software such as drill navigation software for drilling according to the design.
  • Blast analysis tools include hole firing sequence simulation, timing contours (angle of initiation), and burden relief time.
  • Blast modelling tools include fragmentation distribution prediction models (that can be calibrated with measured distributions), vibration prediction model, wave interference model to optimise timing for either vibration control or fragmentation, and prediction of the blasted rock radius.
  • Calculate costs and quantities based on actual drilling and explosive loading information.
  • Reporting capabilities for blast design and communicating critical design issues such as costs, quantities and energy.
