TWO EXCELLENT SCAN STRATEGIES
Stockpile measurement can be achieved through two primary methods, which can also be employed in combination. For stockpiles managed by tripper cars, A-frame reclaimers, or similar equipment, a position sensor and a 2D radar are integrated into the handling equipment. As the equipment moves, it continuously captures data, generating a 3D image of the stockpile in real-time. Alternatively, in situations where continuous scanning is required or no handling equipment is present, fixed 3D radars are strategically installed above the bulk material to provide accurate and consistent measurements.

RADAR SENSORS
UNPRECEDENTED RESULTS IN DUSTY CONDITIONS
A-FRAME STACKER / RECLAIMER
3D, cutting assistance, collision avoidance
The solution utilizes an iLDR-H 1D-radar for accurate linear measurement of the travel position of the A-frame reclaimer. Additionally, 2D-radar sensors installed on the portal measure the stockpile in 3D, track the machine-to-material clearance, and provide input for cutting assistance during the process. It sets the basis to stacking homogeneous piles, through optimized material distribution and arrangement, for improved efficiency and uniformity.

TRIPPER CAR
volumetric measurement and linear position
By combining 2D radar sensors with 1D linear measurement devices, the system generates a precise 3D surface representation of the entire stockpile. Leveraging this data, the system can automatically control the movement of trippers to ensure the creation of homogeneous piles.

FIXED SENSOR INSTALL
3D inventory information at all times
Regardless of the position of the tripper car, this option provides accurate inventory information at all times.
Sensors can be installed inside buildings – for example, under walkways or on other structures. All sensors are connected via Ethernet to a central processing unit, which then makes the information available company-wide.

3D MODEL
advanced 3D inventory information
iStockpile offers a comprehensive 3D representation of the stockpile derived from radar data. This valuable information can be seamlessly integrated and shared with PLC and SCADA systems.
Moreover, the user-friendly Human-Machine Interface (HMI) provides a fully rotatable 3D image of the stockpile. Users can define specific areas, such as draw points and material qualities, and obtain essential data like volumes, maximum and minimum fill levels, and more, for these designated areas. This intuitive interface empowers users with precise insights and control over stockpile management and facilitates effective decision-making.

4D VOXEL MODEL
linking 3D stockpile with material parameters
This software feature details the 3D model into a voxel model. Each voxel can be associated with data such as stacking time, material quality, or other.
Taken together, this provides accurate information about where specific material is located on the stockpile, enabling informed operational decisions.

5D FLOW MODEL
simulation of material flow
This software add-on leverages data from other modules to accurately calculate the quality of material on the feeders.
By utilizing the 3D model and the 4D Voxel software, it performs simulations of the material flow through the pile, offering valuable insights into the dynamics of material movement.
This feature facilitates the determination of available material quality for each feeder, forming the foundation for precise material blending. By utilizing this model, blending can be predicted and optimized, leading to improved material consistency and overall operational efficiency.
