Customer testimonial

"SHOTPlus makes it alot easier to calculate and visualise delay intervals, particularly in single hole blasting. It has saved me from late job hours trying to optimise the delays manually. SHOTPlus is easy to use and easy to convert the drill plan between our drill rig supplier's blast design software."
