World’s largest bucket wheel excavator

Automatic Block Cutting on Crawler Bucket Wheel Excavator: A multifunctional solution for the world’s largest bucket wheel excavator (240.000m³/day).

The indurad solution provides collision avoidance data and detects any object on either side of the bucket wheel.

At the same time, the system provides cutting depth control and thus increase the productivity of the machine.

indurad proved in a benchmarking field test – comparing indurad radar sensors against a leading industrial laser scanner – that, the standard deviation between radar and laser was only 0.03m, respectively. RWE considers the accuracy of indurad’s radars equal to that of laser sensors. RWE choose to install indurad because of the significantly higher availability offered by radar’s reliable performance under adverse conditions.
