Load Volume Measurement System
Measuring truck load volumes dynamically and fully automatically
The load volume measurement system measures the load volume of truck loads on flatbed loading areas or the remaining loading volume of dump trucks in a single pass and without the need for the vehicle to come to a stop. Having precise data on load volumes is especially important for loads with an unknown moisture content, for example, to determine the dry weight. The vehicle is scanned up to 100 times per second using eye-safe 2D LiDAR sensors. The 3D model created from the collected measurement data serves as the basis for calculating the load volume. The system reliably identifies irrelevant vehicle parts and fasteners and excludes them automatically.
Benefits
Shorter measurement process thanks to the automated volume calculation without the vehicle stopping
Single pass – no comparative measurement required
Effective volume values thanks to the exclusion of irrelevant vehicle parts through intelligent detection of the loading area
Volume data for further processing available in a matter of seconds
Easy installation, maintenance, and operation
No installations in the road surface necessary
Ready for use around the clock and without operators
