In modern mine operations there is  zero tolerance towards accidents, and Safemine is a vital part of this policy. Safemine is much more than a Proximity Warning System (PWS). A PWS is prone to false alarms as it only sees proximity, and does not assess the probability of a collision. This results in driver distraction and indifference.

Accident Prevention

Safemine uses high end algorithms to predict and prevent accidents, based on the movement of all vehicles. Safemine monitors safe driving habits, vehicle tilt and much more.

Track Stationary Objects

Internal maps hold information about the position of known stationary obstacles and generates alarms when these positions are approached. These maps may be updated over-the-air.

Black Box Feature

In case of accidents, Safemine’s Black Box capability enables movement logs to be downloaded, displayed in Google Earth, and analysed by Safemine engineers, should the worst happen.

Instant data transmission

Safemine is much more than a GPS tracking system. Tracking solutions are of no use in accident prevention. Transmission delays and GSM network unreliability makes such systems useless in a safety first environment. Safemine uses GPS for positioning, but broadcasts communications between vehicles wirelessly. Zero transmission lag, instant updates at literally light speed.

High Quality Installations

The installation includes all hardware and cables needed, and one software package with dongle is supplied. All cables, cable joins and fittings are of highest quality giving the overall best result possible with the lowest maintenance requirements.

Full Range of Sensors Available

Fuel sensors are always included. They are mounted in the fuel tanks to give accurate reporting of fuel levels, fuel theft and fuel consumption.

Other sensors include

• step sensors for passenger counting on buses,
• flow sensors for fuel and water deliveries,
• water-in-oil sensors for fuel tankers,
• contact sensors for doors and tanker truck manhole covers,
• RFID readers for driver/salesmen ID card and trailer ID
• temperature sensors for freezer compartments,
• moisture sensors for fresh fruit and dry cargo holds,
• load sensors for dump trucks and articulators,
• and much more.

Track across borders

The data unit can be fitted with up to 8 SIM cards, giving across border tracking without the need for unreliable and expensive roaming solutions.

Full Dispatcher Software

The software package is installed on a PC on the customer premises allowing the dispatcher fast and easy access to the vehicles positions and all the information being monitored. Extensive reporting is included and data can be exported to third party software.

The software can be installed at any number of locations, but additional dongles will be required if it is to be used simultaneously at more than one location.

Fuel reporting includes fills and drains with locations of events shown on map, and fuel economy (L/100km) calculations. There is also trip and stop reporting, all geofencing tools, full safety reporting, alarms and much more.

The Logistics Module allows route planning with location arrival and departure, stop intervals and alarms for deviations from planned schedules. Schedules can be printed out in the morning, given to the driver, then monitored live and reports made on return.

All installed sensors have dedicated data tabs and reports. All reports can be exported to spreadsheets – powerful and convenient.

Extensive customisation is possible to match individual requirements.

Service Levels

TekCare offers the client a choice of service levels, ranging from completely autonomous operation of the software to a complete bureau service where all surveillance and supervision is carried out by TekCare. The recurring monthly fees are dependant on the service level chosen.

Cell Site Fuel Management

A low cost solution to monitoring generator fuel levels at e.g. telecoms cell sites, quarries and mine sites. The Data Unit can be set up to monitor generator running time and can easily calculate fuel usage per hour.

Delivery tankers can be fitted with fuel sensors in their bulk tanks. The software provides simple joint reports allowing easy side-by-side auditing of fuel deliveries to the cell sites, all on the same platform.

Features

• Eliminate fuel theft from unattended generator fuel tanks;
• Optimise supply logistics and eliminate wasted trips to sites with a sufficient supply of fuel;
• Generate supply reports directly comparing side-by-side tanker deliveries to generator tank receipts;
• Receive alarms from sites with fuel shortage;
• Generate reports on generator running hours, phase voltages, site access and more;
• Add on engine sensors and receiving alarms when the generator is running out of limits;
• Receive alarms on failed switchover when mains current returns;
• Add fuel flow sensors and get actual figures at the generator to monitor fuel diversions from remote tanks;
• prepare for monitoring of PV and wind power generation;

This module meets the special requirements of bus companies. In addition to the normal tracking features the buses are fitted with step sensors and door open sensors allowing the company to follow the entry of passengers on the bus. This gives control of the revenue inflow expected from each route and allows optimisation of routes and times based on actual passenger data.

Features:

• Daily and interval reports on passenger numbers on each vehicle;
• Live tracking of passenger numbers on buses as they travel their routes;
• Algorithms that take account of double stepping by single passengers;
• Algorithm that prevents counting when bus is stopped at rest stops with doors opened;
• Complete fuel usage control with reports on filling, drainage and fuel economy;
• Controls route and time deviations with route templates and driver/conductor ID logging;
• Monitor egine RPM, coolant temperature, luggage compartment and much more;
• Option for 8 SIM card holder for easy cross border tracking with no requirement for roaming;

Use the Logistics Module to plan and monitor deliveries

Powerful software lets you use all the benefits of TekCare’s Fleet Management Solution. The driver is issued a sheet with instructions in the morning. This is printed directly from the software, and based on that a report can be issued upon return to depot. No discussion, no fuss.

Just peace of mind.

Powerful reporting

Delivery reports can be printed easily and compared to the receipts. Full safety reports can be issued daily at the touch of a button. Every other type of report you require is found as standard in the software. All reports can be exported into spreadsheets. Fast and easy, but most of all:

Powerful enough for even the most demanding management requirements.

Easy auditing and powerful planning tool

If the storage tanks are equipped with fuel sensors the reports of deliveries can be side-by-side with the reports of receipts at the client locations. This setup also makes it so easy to monitor client fuel levels.
