SICK’s LiDAR sensors are constantly developed to ensure they meet industry standards. SICK is helping to keep the mining industry moving through its sensor and digital solutions. A mine is a worksite with a lot of moving parts, so it is imperative that workers keep all guards on machinery and equipment, and act confidently from the remote operating centres. To tackle the challenges and a more sustainable future, remote sensing solutions are required. One of these technologies is LiDAR (light detection and ranging). LiDAR sensors are not a new product in the industry, but companies like SICK are constantly developing them to ensure they meet the standards and evolving needs of the sector. “There are a lot of LiDAR products on the market, but SICK has a reputation for having fit-for-purpose sensors for the mining space,” SICK market product manager Tim Baron told Australian Mining . “Harsh environments like mining need reliable products that will continue to operate no matter what the space throws at them. SICK understands this, so we develop our products accordingly.” A mine site can use a LiDAR sensor for multiple applications. The technology can capture geological data to create 3D models, scan the surrounding […]
