Truck & Loader
Haulage Fleet Productivity
Evaluation Tool Analysis

With over 300 licencees world-wide, Runge’s TALPAC Software has long been
accepted as the industry standard for determining the productivity and
economics of truck and loader haulage systems.
Within TALPAC, the haul route for the truck can be specified, the truck type selected from the
database and operating limitations, including speed limit, set.

This system is flexible in allowing each user to determine loading strategy, material characteristics and work
roster applicable to the fleet.
