The Fixed Installation Scanner (FiX1) from Carlson provides a simple, automated method for obtaining volumetric results of stockpiles in many different applications.
The FiX1 system can be scheduled to scan, process and deliver a result without any user intervention. With remote connectivity through Cellular and Wi-Fi networks, the FiX1 can be permanently installed into inaccessible areas. It can be left to carry out volumetric scans that are triggered manually or by a user-defined schedule to automate a scan and provide continuous calculations.
Hands-Free and Safe Stockpile Surveying
- Monitor and measure remotely using the FiX1 Web UI all while improving safety in potentially hazardous environments
Automate Volumetric Calculations
- Schedule repeating scans and automate the delivery of volumetric results
Base Scans off of Historical data
- Pre-existing base data can be uploaded to provide a geo-referenced ‘floor’ from which to compute volumes
Advantages
- Automated delivery of volumetric results
- Provides stockpile volume information or detailed scans in geographically remote areas without assigning manpower and measurement tools
- After installation, no knowledge of surveying, data processing or point cloud manipulation is required by users
- Improves safety by removing the need for feet on the ground in potentially hazardous areas, such as quarries or open pit mining
- Identify trends in material stockpiling or usage
- Multiple units can be connected in a network to allow the monitoring of large stockpiles or distinct unrelated locations within a site
