Bulk material handling certainly challenges cameras, as they are exposed to the dusty, corrosive and at times explosive environments. In many cases cameras are hard to reach, or doing so requires costly interruption to the operation.
ToughEye™ cameras are self-cleaning, standalone, and are designed for highly corrosive or explosive environments.
They bring visibility to your transfer points and chutes to see material build up ahead of time and prevent clogs, while providing clear visibility around your shiploaders and stacker/reclaimers to prevent incidents.
They also reduce the number of steps for your train car dumper carryback removal and they do so without adding to your maintenance effort.
Material chute clogging
Implement predictive maintenance for your chutes and material transfer points by clearly spotting and removing material buildup before it turns into a clog - our customers have achieved 60% reduction in downtime with zero camera upkeep
Eliminate “confined space” work by alleviating the need for your personnel to get into hazardous confined spaces for inspection
Stackers & reclaimers
Currently, the vantage point is often compromised because cameras need to be installed away from the point of interest to avoid dust and to allow easy access. ToughEye™ cameras are self-cleaning and require zero upkeep, which means:
Install at the optimal vantage point regardless of dust
Place in hard-to-access locations that were previously unavailable
shiploader operations
Cameras currently need to be installed away from the point of interest to avoid dust and allow easy access, but often this compromises the vantage point. ToughEye™ cameras are self-cleaning and require zero upkeep, so they can:
Prevent shiploader collision with the vessel and elevate safety through installation at the ideal vantage point
Allow operational continuity through reduced downtime
rotary car dumper Carryback Removal
ToughEye™ can significantly increase the efficiency of carryback removal because, unlike regular cameras, ToughEye™ can be installed looking up into the train car when the car is flipped.
Clearly identify carryback in the same step as dumping when the car is flipped
Remove carryback efficiently without the intermediate step of flipping the car back up for inspection
Install your camera where it gives you the optimal vantage points without worrying about access or keeping the camera clean
silo overfill
Reduce downtime and increase site safety
Retain clear vision even in dirty or dusty applications
Ensure peace of mind with a fail-safe solution in circumstances that cause sensors to malfunction
loading bay monitoring
Increase operational efficiency and reduce product loss
Overloading or under-loading leads to efficiency loss
Clear visual feedback allows optimal loading
Separating Personnel from Hazards
If cameras used for remote monitoring require in-person maintenance, then the site does not realize the full benefit of remote monitoring. ToughEye™ cameras:
Increase site safety with remote monitoring - no in-person upkeep required
Perform reliable remote inspection and separate your personnel from toxic environments (ex: lead/zinc/uranium), which would require breathing apparatus
Reduce confined space and at-height work for site personnel
