Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Imagine you are tasked with evaluating a new autonomous excavator. You have the following KPIs: ROP of 12 meters/hour, VPC of 2.5 m³, a fuel efficiency of 6 liters/m³, and a downtime ratio of 15%. Create a performance summary assessing its effectiveness against a traditional excavator.

💡 Hint: Consider how each KPI impacts the overall productivity.

Challenge 2 Hard

You need to set benchmarks for a new autonomous drilling system going into a construction project. What factors would you consider when establishing these benchmarks, and why are simulation tools essential in this process?

💡 Hint: Think about both the technical and operational aspects of the benchmarks.
