Meet the Innovation in Safety Award Entrants: INDURAD GMH – ISILO3D
In the countdown to this year’s Innovation in Safety Award Ceremony we are sharing each of the entries that we received. Whilst there can only be one winner of the award itself, the wide range of entries means that there are ideas that will appeal to different readers directly or may be the inspiration for your own next step change for safety.
We will introduce you all to all of the entries before the Award Ceremony on 23 February.
Today’s entry is:
INDURAD GMH – ISILO3D
Each year, an unknown number of Silos and Domes collapse due to improper material filling and unloading procedures.
The Indurad system is based on a compact 3D radar sensor, the Indurad Scanning Dynamic Radar – Premium (iSDR-P) in combination with our Indurad Radar Processing Unit – Field (iRPU-F). Indurad has developed a stand-alone product called iSilo3D to continuously measure the surface of the material in the domes & silos. This information is visualized and a certain set of parameters is passed to PLC / SCADA systems. Alarm parameters are then set in the PLC / SCADA system.
However, the innovation goes beyond being a safety system but also providing normal operations with a set of data for better controlling and utilizing the silos. In the case of a copper mine in Chile, this resulted in the decision not to build a new storage facility as the existing one could be better utilized using a solution to scan the material which was previously prohibited due to safety concerns.
The 3D inventory data also goes to a visualisation and directly to customer’s business tools (like BI tools and also ERP systems).
