Real-time Mining Monitoring System
|
|
| |
Introduction
 A leading provider in the mining industry has recently upgraded its mining monitoring
systems for use in mineral exploration, underground mining,
surface mining, and specific areas of the construction
industry, such as quarrying, tunneling, demolition, and
recycling. In order to collect all production and environmental
monitoring information simultaneously, and ensure continuous
monitoring, they decided to set up a real-time monitoring
network that integrates the video stream into the SCADA
system. Since the mining production process involves many
harsh environmental factors, the customer needed an industrial
yet rugged video networking solution that can withstand
these kinds of hazards. This application adopts Moxa's
industrial video encoder and industrial Ethernet switch
to build an extremely reliable and stable surveillance
system.
System Description
For
underground tunneling applications, the customer needed
a product that is rugged enough to create a monitoring
network system that is guaranteed to run continuously.
In addition, wireless networking is an ideal choice for
subterranean applications due to its easy deployment and
greater flexibility. In this case, the customer used four
analog cameras, a VPort 351 industrial video encoder, and
a wireless AP on each mining vehicle to monitor the mining
conditions around the vehicle. The video and data are sent
back to a remote control center. The DIN-Rail mounting
capability, -40 to 75C wide operating temperature range,
and IP30 casing make the Moxa VPort 351-T industrial video
encoder a rugged, yet reliable remote video surveillance
solution for connecting mining applications to an existing
Ethernet network.
Since the remote central control room uses a SCADA system to monitor and control all other devices, video streams from the surveillance cameras are also included in this system by using Moxa's flexible VPort Software Development Kit (SDK) to get the benefits of centralized operation. Moxa's VPort SDK is a user-friendly, customized tool for integrating VPort series video encoders into a comprehensive monitoring and control system. Users can monitor mining sites in real-time from each vehicle at the same time, and provide a better way to control all anomalous events and conditions. |
