Collision Awareness Systems
A modern mining operation must safeguard the efficient movement of materials and equipment. Protecting mobile equipment from collision, ensuring vehicles are loaded and unloaded efficiently and safely, and managing the loading of transport vehicles are all major requirements on any mining site. SICK will support you by providing system solutions to efficiently material and equipment.
TPS-30100 and TPS-20200 – Truck Positioning System and Tunnel Positioning System
Large mining haul trucks are often involved in dangerous situations such as unintentional vehicle-to-object collisions or road departures. The vehicles are also involved in situations where unnecessary wear and damage is caused by reckless driving techniques. SICK provides solutions in effectively detecting and assisting the operator in these dangerous situations.
• Intelligent Front-end Collision Warning reduces vehicle accidents
• Road Departure Warning detects an operator’s accidently or intentional driving habits and reacts accordingly
• Reverse Assist assists an operator to perform a quick, efficient and perfect unloading process
• Integrated System of sensors, computer hardware and software makes installation easy on both new and retrofit vehicles
• Open Ethernet communication interface coordinates with existing on-board and fleet management systems
EPS-10000 – Excavator Protection System
Shovels and excavators perform highly sophisticated tasks. The sequence of digging at the high wall, slewing with a full bucket and loading trucks, can cause visibility to be impaired due to huge blind spots and dust. SICK offers the solution which allows the operator to concentrate fully on the task at hand, while providing information necessary to optimize these tasks.
• Intelligent Rear-end Collision Warning reduces vehicle accidents through complete rotation
• Integrated System of sensors, computer hardware and software makes installation easy on both new and retrofit vehicles
• Open Ethernet communication interface coordinates with existing on-board and fleet management systems
WPS-10000 – Wheel Loader Protection System
In order to protect wheel loaders and dozers from blind spots and to assist the prevention of reversing maneuver damage, SICK offers solutions maximizing the protection of these vehicles.
• Intelligent Rear-end Collision Warning reduces vehicle accidents through complete articulation
• Integrated System of sensors, computer hardware and software makes installation easy on both new and retrofit vehicles
• Open Ethernet communication interface coordinates with existing on-board and fleet management systems
