Studio UG 4.2 introduces smarter planning capabilities, faster processing and 3D visualization, expanded MSO 5.1 optimization tools, and a range of usability improvements across design, data, wireframe and interface workflows.
This update brings further enhancements to its Haulage Network tool and now the haulage network dependencies automatically identify links between drives and stopes, significantly reducing dependencies setup for complex underground schedules. Planning workflows have also been improved with advanced derived activity controls, FXS profile-wall alignment, a refreshed Dependencies screen, clearer dependency labels, faster Studio UG to DTS synchronization and better validation for design strings.
MSO 5.1 now provides all capabilities from the legacy MSO, with full support for Prism framework, testing and conditional simulation tools, room and pillar stope splitting, Level ID mapping and improved online help. The new MSO automatically converts legacy MSO scenarios, making it as simple as possible to migrate!
Significant performance improvements make key processes such as ADDMOD, COPY, COMBMOD, DILUTMOD, SLIMOD and REBLOCK, MODTRI, COMBTRI and others faster and more reliable, with no changes required to existing macros or workflows.
The 3D window performance is now also much improved after a range of optimizations have been made, while the new Create Multiple Sections tool lets you generate and save parallel or string-based section sets directly in the 3D environment.
You will also find new and improved commands for wireframes, DTMs, key field support for Boolean design commands, strings, outlines, along with simplified selection settings, multi-overlay management, standardized ribbons and continued documentation updates.
About Studio UG
Studio UG is an integrated underground design and scheduling solution that provides mine engineers a streamlined experience from data preparation to scheduled activities. Its intuitive workflow supports long- and short-term planners, offering powerful tools for stope/reserves optimisation, mine design, planning, evaluation, and reporting. Studio UG features a unique single-step process for generating all scheduled activities from source data, ensuring efficiency and robustness for underground operations. Studio UG incorporates mine standards into templates, allowing multiple mine planners to work simultaneously and avoid redundancies, while synchronised block model views and point cloud representations help them visualise all aspects of the underground mine. Integrated scheduling features enable rapid updates with design changes, preserving manual interventions and enhancing productivity.
