Cubic Platform
Know where every tonne came from, where it is, and where it’s going
Cubic is a physics-based digital twin for bulk material operations. Combining first-principles simulation with material intelligence, Cubic helps engineers and operators understand, predict and optimise the movement of bulk materials throughout an entire process.
Bulk materials are still a black box
Every day, industrial plants move thousands of tonnes of material through conveyors, crushers, stockpiles, silos and processing equipment. They know what goes in. They know what comes out. But what happens in between is often estimated using spreadsheets, residence time models, level sensors and operator experience. That uncertainty affects inventory, blending, production, planning and traceability.
Cubic makes the invisible visible.
One platform. Four capabilities.
Physics-Based Simulation
Build digital models of complete bulk material handling systems.
Simulate particle flow, segregation, mixing, breakage, fluid interaction and thermal processes using industrial-scale physics.
Material Intelligence
Track material throughout your operation.
Every parcel carries its own history, allowing complete visibility into material origin, movement, mixing and destination.
Know exactly where material came from—and where it ultimately ends up.
Digital Twin
Transform simulations into living operational models.
Combine plant configuration, inventory and operational history to create a continuously evolving representation of your process.
Understand what’s happening today—not just what happened yesterday.
Planning & Prediction
Test operational changes before making them in the real plant.
Forecast inventory, throughput and bottlenecks. Explore “what-if” scenarios and compare alternative operating strategies with confidence.
Cubic answers questions
Material Intelligence
Every particle has a history. Traditional inventory systems treat material as a single number. Cubic treats material as individual parcels that move, mix and evolve throughout your operation. This enables capabilities that were previously impossible.
Material Genealogy
Trace every parcel from source to destination.
Batch Traceability
Locate every batch throughout the plant and downstream process.
Material Age
Visualise residence time and inventory ageing.
Mixing & Segregation
Understand where materials combine—and where they separate.
From Simulation to Operations
Traditional engineering software is used during plant design. Traditional operational software reports what has already happened. Cubic connects these two worlds.
