Literature Review: Application of WipWare Technology

Kim Coyle •
Blast on a bench face

WipWare’s fragmentation analysis technologies have been widely applied across various mining operations to solve critical challenges. These were associated with material flow, fragmentation consistency, energy use, and overall process efficiency. I came across Tom Palangio‘s works on numerous case studies highlighting the effectiveness of WipWare‘s tools. These tools optimized blasting practices and downstream processing. This review presents a summary of several influential studies and industrial applications of WipWare technology.

Photographic Fragmentation Analysis

Selbaie Mine, Joutel, Quebec, Canada

In the mid-1990s, Selbaie Mine utilized photographic fragmentation analysis using WipFrag to assess explosive performance and optimize blasting patterns. The integration of WipWare technology enabled the mine to monitor and control several key performance indicators. Some of these indicators included energy consumption for crushing, loading rates, haul truck payloads, secondary blasting costs, and maintenance expenditures. Fragmentation data revealed a more comprehensive understanding of the effects of blast results on overall mining cost structures. This information allowed the mine to better manage ore processing operations. They could quantify the true cost of mineral handling based on fragment size.

Significant Pattern Optimization

INCO Coleman Mine, Sudbury, Ontario, Canada

INCO’s Coleman Mine used WipFrag during a detailed study in 1994, resulting in significant pattern improvement. The original tight blast pattern (5ft x 10ft) yielded a characteristic size (Xc) of 0.617 m, with substantial oversize material requiring re-blasting. Progressive expansion of the blast pattern to 6ft x 10ft and eventually 7ft x 10ft not only improved fragmentation (Xc = 0.318 m) but also reduced oversize entirely. WipFrag data was instrumental in determining optimal fragmentation, with INCO realizing up to 40% blast pattern expansion and 80% cost savings. Additionally, the technology allowed for reductions in fines generation, further streamlining ore handling and improving crusher feed quality.

Correlate Ore Fragmentation and Hardness with Mill Performance

Highland Valley Copper, Logan Lake, British Columbia, Canada

At Highland Valley Copper (HVC), the team used WipWare tools to correlate ore fragmentation and hardness with mill performance. WipWare’s WipFrag software, Reflex vehicle analysis system and Solo conveyor analysis system played a central role in tracking ore size distributions from the pit through to the mill feed. This enabled real-time optimization of crusher and mill settings. The mine’s dispatch system integrated fragmentation data to guide stockpile management and minimize feed segregation. WipFrag analysis revealed that feed consistency across the grinding lines could be improved by adjusting feeder ratios. This capability to quantify fragmentation effects allowed HVC to perform cost benefit analyses and optimize the balance between blast quality and mill throughput.

Detonator Timing Accuracy and Improved Fragmentation using WipFrag

Bartley and Trousselle – Ogdensburg, New York, USA

At Benchmark Materials Quarry, Bartley and Trousselle demonstrated the link between detonator timing accuracy and improved fragmentation using WipFrag. Digital programmable detonators yielded superior blast uniformity and reduced vibration levels. WipWare’s image analysis facilitated the evaluation of blast performance improvements by providing accurate fragmentation size distribution data.

The Effects of Improved Fragmentation on Mechanical Performance and Power Usage in the Crushing Circuit

Lafarge Canada Inc. – Exshaw, Alberta, Canada

Lafarge’s Exshaw operations applied WipFrag to examine the effects of improved fragmentation on mechanical performance and power usage in the crushing circuit. A redesigned blast using 102 mm holes led to more uniform fragmentation. This resulted in a 16% increase in crusher throughput and a 30% reduction in power consumption. WipWare data also informed decisions related to equipment selection (e.g., drill bits) and wall control, leading to improved safety and reduced vibration impacts on neighboring communities.

Cost-Effective and Reliable Fragmentation Assessment Tool

Barkley and Carter – Evaluation of Optical Sizing Methods

Barkley and Carter evaluated WipFrag as both a cost-effective and reliable fragmentation assessment tool. Their work highlighted that previous blast optimization efforts were constrained by the lack of efficient sizing techniques. In contrast, WipFrag enables meaningful decision-making in blast modeling, mining method selection, and economic planning. The study underscored the significance of image-based sampling frequency, particularly in varied muck pile conditions, to derive actionable insights on crusher performance and feed consistency.

Assess Fragmentation and Stemming Uniformity

Chiappetta, Treleaven, and Smith – Panama Canal Expansion

During the expansion of the Panama Canal, WipFrag was employed to assess fragmentation and stemming uniformity in complex geological and logistical conditions. The integration of WipWare into blasting operations enabled engineers to both track blast outcomes and support adaptive design decisions in real time. In a project characterized by not only marine traffic but also saturated zones and tight deadlines, the technology provided essential support in achieving controlled fragmentation and predictable material handling.

Conclusion

These reviewed case studies emphasize WipWare’s critical role in improving the efficiency and economics of mining operations. Through accurate and real time fragmentation analysis, WipWare technologies facilitate optimization across the mine to mill value chain. From reducing energy consumption and equipment wear, to improving blast designs and minimizing fines, WipWare’s technologies offer robust solutions to a range of material flow problems in both surface and underground mining environments. These outcomes underscore the value of fragmentation analysis in modern mining practice, unquestionably supporting data-driven decision making and continuous process improvement.

WipWare Proudly Celebrates Over 30 Years of Innovation

Kim Coyle •

From a dusty DOS computer to AI-powered, real-time fragmentation analysis systems… WipWare has been at the forefront of fragmentation analysis for over 30 years of innovation, transforming how the world measures particle size.

The Beginning

From humble beginnings to global impact, we’ve come a long way. This year, we’re celebrating over 30 years of innovation in fragmentation analysis. Along the way, we’re taking a look back at the milestones. These milestones shaped us and the journey of making particle size analysis smarter, faster, and easier than ever.

Before WipWare was WipWare, our founder Tom Palangio was in the field with North Bay DuPont. He was tackling real-world challenges with innovative thinking and a practical mindset.

Below is a photo of Tom from our archives. He was working on a project that would spark the idea for our very first product in fragmentation analysis: WipFrag.

Solving a Global Problem

Traditionally, describing blast results in mines and quarries was limited to vague terms like “good,” “fair,” or “poor.” Manual sieving and particle counting were too costly and impractical until a team of passionate pioneers changed the game.

WipFrag was born in 1986 from groundbreaking collaboration between Franklin Geotechnical, DuPont/ETI, and the University of Waterloo. It was the world’s first digital image analysis software for measuring rock fragmentation.

Three images of rocks from a muckpile, one with a measuring tape, 4th image is the particle size distribution curve from first versoion of WipFrag

Leveraging advancements in imaging and computer processing, they created a revolutionary tool. A digital method to analyze muckpile photos or video frames to produce a detailed fragmentation size distribution curve.

The name itself carries the legacy: Waterloo Image Enhancement Process for Fragmentation or “WIEP,” later shortened to just “WipFrag.”

Since then, our journey has been marked by bold ideas, hard-earned field experience, and a commitment to excellence that has brought us to where we are today. Tom Palangio, with his explosive expertise, innovative leadership, and close collaboration with Dr. Norbert Maerz and Dr. John Franklin laid the groundwork for much of what we now take for granted in automated material analysis.

First Trials

Thanks to real-world testing in 1980s-1990s at INCO’s Copper Cliff and Coleman underground operations and Highland Valley Copper in BC, WipFrag proved its worth boosting productivity, reducing oversize, and optimizing blast patterns. Results included a 40% pattern expansion and 10% increase in mill throughput milestones that cemented WipFrag’s value in the mining industry.

We owe this innovation to the visionaries who asked, “What if we could measure fragmentation automatically?” and then made it possible. Hats off to the original developers and researchers whose dedication paved the way for what WipWare is today, 30 years strong and still leading the future of photoanalysis technology.

WipJoint and System 1

In 1990, WipJoint was introduced for measuring in-situ rock apparent block size and joint orientation.

Our journey into real-time automated analysis systems began in 1998, led by Thomas W. Palangio, the founder’s son, as he joined the company and introduced our first hardware systems. System 1 was released in 1998 with one camera for online analysis: a well-received innovation for the mining industry. The very next year, System 2 was rolled out, boasting the capacity to integrate 12 cameras for real-time analysis.

Then another year later in 2000, WipFrag 2 was developed, building on the success of the first WipFrag.

In this 2007 photo, WipWare team members gather around the first Solo system — a major step forward in automated material analysis. Originally built for conveyor belts and later adapted for vehicle loads, this early unit was the seed of what would become today’s Solo 6 ve Reflex 6 systems — smarter, faster, and tougher than ever.

Pictured here are two faces still leading WipWare forward today:

  • Thomas Palangio (right), now our Chief Technical Officer and Vice President of Technology
  • Kevin DeVuono (back right), now our Head Programmer

WipFrag 3 joined the arsenal in 2014 with drone and GIS capabilities, serving as HMI for our real-time analysis systems. With WipFrag now in the palm of your hand since 2016, WipWare makes it easier than ever for field personnel to assess blast fragmentation instantly, anywhere, anytime and share it across platforms for end-to-end mine-to-mill optimization.

WipFrag Goes Mobile

In 2016, WipWare brought WipFrag to mobile devices — putting fragmentation analysis directly into the hands of field personnel.

For the first time, users could capture and process muckpile images using the camera on their phone or tablet, with the option to sync and share results across devices for further analysis.
This leap in accessibility made data collection faster, easier, and more flexible — using tools people already carried with them.
Designed for the real world — and it redefined the standard.

Pit to Plant Fragmentation Analysis

In 2018 Tom Palangio, President of WipWare enjoyed an interview with Crownsmen Ortakları at the CIM in Vancouver. During this interview, Tom discussed how innovation, being a disruptor in the early years and providing excellent leadership has shaped WipWare into the company it is today.

WipFrag 4 Released in 2020

In 2020, WipFrag became easier than ever for field personnel to assess blast fragmentation instantly, anywhere, anytime and share it across platforms for end-to-end mine-to-mill optimization.

WipWare'in hacimsel özelliği nasıl çalışır ve size nasıl para kazandırabilir?

WipWare, her ikisini de algılamak için hassas bant derinliği algılama lazerleri kullanır
A) Önceki Solo modellerinde olduğu gibi boş kayışlar
B) Konveyör bant üzerindeki malzemenin derinliği
When you tie the material depth information with the conveyor belt speed and your belt weightometer reading, you are able to extract the specific gravity of the material passing. Having the specific gravity information will allow you to determine whether the material passing is waste or ore-bearing material. 
Bir kireçtaşı operasyonunda yapılan ön testlerde WipWare, hacimsel hesaplamalar ile kayış ağırlık ölçer okumaları arasında 94% korelasyonuna ulaşmayı başardı.
Bir operasyon, bu bilgiyi, atık malzemenin kırma işlemine girmesini engellemek için kullanabilir, bu da bakım ve enerji maliyetlerinde önemli miktarda para tasarrufu sağlar.
Volumetrics users have the added benefit of receiving accurate particle sizing results as well as another new feature allowing you to detect contamination.
Boyut, şekil, hacim ve kontaminasyon algılama verilerinin gerçek zamanlı olarak sorunsuz bir şekilde yayınlanmasıyla, WipWare'in otomatik teknolojileri, rakiplerinden üç kat daha fazla doğru veri ölçümü sağlıyor.

What has WipWare technology been used for?

WipWare'de, işimizin çoğunu bu iki sektör oluşturduğundan, genellikle kendimizi bir madencilik ve agrega teknolojisi sağlayıcısı olarak adlandırıyoruz. Fotoanaliz teknolojilerinin güzelliği, uygun bir görüntü ile ürünlerimizin mikron malzemeden gezegenlere kadar her şeyi analiz edebilmesidir. Otomatik parçacık boyutlandırmanın madencilik ve agrega endüstrisinin çok önemli bir parçası olduğunu hepimiz biliyoruz, ancak göreceğiniz gibi, malzeme boyutu yalnızca kayalar için önemli değildir. İşte çalışmaktan zevk aldığımız harika uygulamalardan bazıları:
 Pebbles with a ruler to measure size in the bottom left corner
Mars Merak Gezgini: There may not be any mining on Mars (that we know of), but the Curiosity rover is taking pictures that are being analyzed for oversized obstacle detection. What a great way to identify and steer clear of obstacles and keep Curiosity roaming.
Omlet. That’s right, I said scrambled eggs. A food supplier from the US contacted us looking to optimize the fluffiness and fragmentation of the scrambled eggs they use. I’ll never look at scrambled eggs the same way ever again.
İşlenmiş kimberlit: Getting out of our chef’s apron and putting our hard hats back on, we have been working very closely with multiple diamond companies around the world to accurately analyze the process kimberlite material on their conveyor belts. What’s so incredible about this application? Well, it’s pretty normal, except for the fact that the material ranges from as low as 1.2mm (0.0472440″ for our Imperial friends). Once again, if a suitable image can be captured, WipWare can analyze it.
…And of course, we work with hundreds of applications that deal with broken screen detections, contamination, quality control procedures, pre- and post- crusher optimization and SAG mill throughput applications.

How can I see analysis (the) data?

Both Delta (Solo 6 and Reflex 6) and WipFrag produce a percentage passing curve visible after each virtual sieve analysis. It also saves the data to a CSV (comma-separated values) file. Each sieve analysis produces a new line in the CSV file that represents the results from the sieve.
Bu CSV dosyası şunları içerir:
– Timestamp (Year/Month/Day/Hour/Minute/Second)
– D-values (XX% passed the specified size – Ex. 90% of the material passes 13.87 inches[352.30mm])
– User specified size classes (% passing or retained at the specified size)
– Block (amount of particle detected)
– Min, Max, Mean, St. Dev, Mode
– Sphericity (The shape of the material – 0=Linear Objects 1=Perfectly Round)
– Coverage (How much of the image is used)
– Calibration Values (b, Xmax, X50, Xc and n)
– EDP values (Edge Detection Values)
– Calibration factors
– System info (CPU temp, Board temp, Voltage checks)
– System uptime
– Camera setting at the time of the image.
– Modbus and OPC poll rate
– Vehicle Identification Information (Reflex Only)
Delta (Solo 6 and Reflex 6) can e-mail these CSV files automatically as well as an average of the entire day on one passing curve. It also has a trending graph in the lower section of the software interface which trends the data for the current day.
Ayrıca Delta, bilgileri tarihçinize, PLC'nize veya HMI'nıza iletmek için bir Modbus veya OPC bağlantısı kullanarak analiz bilgilerinin çıktısını alma yeteneğine sahiptir.Chart with rocks on the left, chart on the right, System analysis at the bottom

WipWare Fotoanaliz Sistemleri için hangi düzenli bakım gereklidir?

Sistemlerimiz için gereken tek düzenli bakım, lens ve ışıkların mümkün olduğunca az toz/kir ile temiz olmasını sağlamaktır.
Sistemin temizlenmesinin gerekeceği sıklık, çalıştığı ortama bağlı olacaktır:
ORTAM/ FREKANS 
Çok tozlu 1-3 hafta
Orta derecede toz 2-6 hafta
Az veya hiç toz 4-8 hafta
Yöntem 1: Su hortumu 
The first method is the most common. Using a water hose, simply spray down the system ensuring the lens is clean and free of any noticeable dust or dirt. If possible, use a squeegee to remove any droplets that may remain on the lens. Doing this helps prevent dust from collecting in the droplets that remain which could leave deposits on the lens that interfere with image capture. Since our systems are completely waterproof this method is usually the easiest and most effective way to clean the lens. It can also be done without having to shut down the conveyor belt.
Yöntem 2: Nemli bezi/kağıt havluyu temizleyin 
Diğer bir seçenek ise temiz nemli bir bez veya su veya Windex ile kağıt havlu kullanmaktır. Temiz bir mikrofiber bez kullanmak ideal olacaktır, ancak bunları maden sahalarında bulmak zor olabilir. Merceği silerken sert bastırmamaya çalışın, çok fazla basınç uygulanırsa biriken toz mercekte çizikler bırakabilir. Not: Sıfırın altındaki Sıcaklıklarda, merceğe donacağı ve yetersiz görüntü kalitesine neden olacağı için su veya Windex kullanmaktan kaçının. Doğru sıfırın altındaki sıcaklık için derecelendirilmiş standart ön cam yıkayıcı kullanmanızı öneririz.
Yöntem 3: Basınçlı hava 
It’s also acceptable to use compressed air from a can or hose to dust off our systems. This method works well but will kick up a lot more dust than the liquid methods. We recommend using a dust mask when using compressed air to clean off out systems.

Can Delta (Solo 6 and Reflex 6) store the images captured by automated systems?

Basit cevap evet.
The computer can store up to 1000MB worth of images without any issues. Once beyond this point the hard drive could start having problems accessing the image folder causing the computer to run slower than normal, so the oldest images are overwritten automatically.
Not: Tüm parçacık boyutu verileri, çok daha küçük boyutlu bir CSV dosyasında tutulur ve verileri daha uzun bir zaman çizelgesinde saklamanıza olanak tanır.
Sistemlerimizin çoğu 1,2 MP kamera kullanır ve görüntülerin her biri ortalama 180 KB olduğundan, 1000 MB depolama alanı yaklaşık 5600 görüntüyü barındırabilir.
Running 24 hours per day the system can roughly save the following number of images:
Her 20 saniyede 1 fotoğraf çekiyorsanız, günde 4.320 görüntünüz olur. ~31,2 saat
Her 20 saniyede 2 fotoğraf çekiyorsanız, günde 8.640 görüntünüz olur. ~15,5 saat
Her 20 saniyede 3 fotoğraf çekiyorsanız, günde 12.960 görüntünüz olur. ~10,3 saat

When should I apply Calibration to my analysis?

To calibrate, or not to calibrate; that is the question. And it’s an important question to ask prior to installing your online bulk material analysis system, regardless of the industry you’re in. Let’s help you figure out why calibration may or may not be your best bet, and whether you will see value in calibrating your system.
Görüntü tabanlı kaya parçalanma analizi teknolojisindeki eksikliklerden biri, bir konveyör bant üzerinde çalışan altta yatan malzemenin analiz edilememesidir. Bu nedenle, normal koşullarda, kalibrasyon olmadan, görüntü analizi kullanılırken ince malzeme tipik olarak yetersiz temsil edilir. Aynı şey blast parçalanma analizi için de söylenebilir ama buna biraz sonra yazının devamında değineceğim.
Fotoğraf analiz teknolojileri malzemeyi üst katmanda temsil ediyorsa ve alttaki malzemeyi yetersiz temsil ediyorsa, bir işlem bu eksikliği kalibre ederek telafi edebilir. (Kalibrasyonla ilgili nasıl yapılır kılavuzu için bu bağlantıya bakın).
The way I see it, without sounding too much like a broken record, calibrated photo analysis technologies take the best of both worlds: Quantity and quality.
Take the following scenario as an example: Company ABC wants to adjust the SAG feed based on particle size analysis. By doing so, they need to know when to draw fine material from the stockpile and when to draw coarser material. Calibration allows for the proper “mix” of bulk material in order to optimize the process.
The Swebrec and Rosin-Rammler functions are great for adjusting the distribution curve to accurately compensate for fine material… But what if you are looking strictly at the coarse sizes, say, for oversize detection?
If this is the case, you may want to reconsider the calibration process.
Allow me to explain:
A calibrated system is making certain assumptions about material underneath the top layer and may even bias your coarse material fractions when trying to adjust the distribution curve. So, if you are planning on having a conveyor belt shut down if it detects material over x size, you may want to reconsider taking the chance of biasing your results. Instead, an uncalibrated system is going to get you very useful data that will allow you to stop/start/act on out-of-spec readings and optimize your process.
What are other reasons why clients don’t calibrate?
Malzeme çok büyük olduğunda, malzemeyi manuel olarak örneklemek çok daha zordur ve bu, maliyet açısından engelleyici olabilir. Bu sorun çoğunlukla, patlatma optimizasyonunun büyük ölçüde malzeme boyutundaki göreli değişiklikleri algılamaya dayandığı uygulamanın patlatma ucunda ortaya çıkar.
Kırıcı sonrası analiz için, bazı müşteriler malzeme boyutundaki nispi artışlarla astar aşınmasını tespit eder, bu nedenle kalibrasyonu gereksiz kılar.
Özetle, kalibrasyonun madencilik ve agrega endüstrilerinde ve daha spesifik olarak, daha ince malzeme boyutları çıkmazın gerekli bir parçası olduğu durumlarda kesinlikle kullanımları vardır; ancak, kalibre edilmemiş sistemler, sürecinizi optimize etmede ve göreli değişimi izlemede hala çok faydalıdır.
