Micromine and Loadscan join Forces for Real-Time, Precision Payload Management in Mining Operations Enhanced Accuracy and [...]
How can I optimize truck loading?
Trucking and haulage operations are increasingly turning to Loadscan and taking advantage of 3D volume profiling to get more material on their trucks without [...]
How does load volume scanning work?
Load volume scanning works by having the vehicles drive below an elevated scan head. The scanning process is fully automated and will provide volumetric [...]
How many yards in my truck?
The most accurate method of determining truck volume is to use a 3D volume scanner. Volumetric scanning is also often faster and more cost [...]
How can I calculate volume / how many tonnes of material on the truck?
The most accurate method of determining truck volume is to use a 3D volume scanner. Volumetric scanning is also often faster and more cost [...]
Our mine is located in a harsh environment – will this affect the load volume scanner?
The Loadscan LVS is a robust system, built tough for even the harshest mining environments. It will continue to work and deliver accurate results [...]
Will the load volume scanner (LVS) work if the load is heaped above the sides of the truck?
Yes, as long as the top of the load is well clear of the scan-head and there is some drop-off below the level of [...]
Can the load volume scanner (LVS) scan covered loads?
No, loads must be uncovered during the volumetric scanning process.
Can I scan material in a car trailer or small utility vehicles or pickup?
Not usually. However, we can scan small town or mini trucks with standard tray configurations as the minimum capacity for an accurate volume scan [...]
Can I scan material in a tractor trailer?
Yes, generally. The trailer must meet the minimum size requirements and be of an open, regular shape.
Is the LVS affected by steam rising from the load (e.g. compost or bark chips)?
If the quantity of steam is enough to significantly disturb the visibility of the load surface, then a "Visual Pollution" error will be reported and [...]
