Pitram 4.10 Increases Stability and Performance

MICROMINE is pleased to announce the release of Pitram 4.10, delivering major new features and functionality for users.

Pitram is the market leading fleet management and mine control solution assisting mining operations to record, manage and process mine site data in near real-time. It provides mine managers with an overall view of the current mine status through the acquisition of key mining data relating to equipment, personnel and materials and is suitable for underground and surface mine construction, development and production.

“Pitram 4.10 includes a number of enhancements specifically focused on improving stability and performance, which means users will have more control over their operations.” Pitram Product Strategy Manager Gareth Dean commented on the release.

Pitram 4.10 includes 35 new major features and over 650 improvements across the Pitram solution.

Some of the key highlights for the Pitram 4.10 release include the removal of compatibility mode to support modern browsers, a new non-critical faults panel entry and commenting in maintenance view, improved IIS connectivity and major performance improvements to Pitram Mobile. Pitram Restful Integration Service (PRIS) functionality has been extended for personnel and reference data elements.

Extensive development work has also taken place to enhance the shift planner function, which now includes multiple shift roster functionality. Earlier versions of Pitram were only able to operate in a single shift roster mode. In the enhanced version, the shift planner function has been extended to support multiple shift rosters.

“A major feature of this release is the multiple shift rosters functionality. Mining is a 24hr operation with shift handovers and overlap covered by more than one shift, we introduced this functionality to ensure accurate capture and reporting of production” Mr. Dean commented

Previously, Pitram was supported by Internet Explorer browser (IE10 and IE 11) and required the compatibility mode to be turned on. Enhancements in version 4.10 allow all Pitram modules not using Microsoft Silverlight to be displayed and used in other popular browsers, such as Chrome, Edge or Mozilla Firefox.

The Pitram development team has also redesigned and replaced the mobile database in Pitram Mobile to improve the overall performance of the application. The improved database will save time for users, increase efficiencies and allow for a more streamlined user experience.

Pitram 4.10 also assists clients with stabilising mobile installs, increasing data transfer and improving the overall stability of the mobile platform. Current analysis has shown reference data to have improved significantly, with some instances taking only 14% of the original data transfer and processing time.
