Proximity Detection
System
The STRACON Tech Proximity Detection System uses Ultra Wide Band (UWB) technology to provide accurate results in operations. This intelligent and effective system is notable for its accessibility and easy installation, allowing its use on people, mining vehicles, and various objects such as rocks, slopes, and cliffs. The implementation of this advanced technology not only enhances safety but also optimizes mining operations.
Quellaveco, Peru
More than 20% of accidents in mines are caused by impacts or collisions with moving vehicles.
Our challenge was to develop a highly accurate system at a low cost, for short-term use, with the same or superior functionalities as market applications.
Objective
To implement a proximity detection system that allows for quick adoption and adaptation in any mining environment, ensuring that safety is never compromised.
Solution
Our solution includes three types of devices: tags for people, vehicles, and objects. Each of these devices is designed to offer superior performance and ensure safety in various situations.
Benefits
- Easy installation, the devices can be configured on any type of mining vehicle and adapted to each person and object on the operation site in a matter of minutes.
- Tag for People: 30 hours of uninterrupted operation autonomy and high precision.
- PDS System for Mining Vehicles: detects the proximity of equipped people and objects, generating audible and visual alerts.
- Tag for Objects: provides an additional layer of safety and continuous monitoring.
