SOLIDAT SLDL6300 Laser Stockpile Scanner Realizes Stockpile Reserve Monitoring and Visualized Intelligent Management

As a globally leading innovator in radar and laser-based automation technology, SOLIDAT Applied Technologies Ltd is headquartered in Coventry, England, United Kingdom. Rooted in the local profound ecosystem of advanced manufacturing and the cluster advantages of aerospace and digital technology industries, we have long focused on core technical pain points in bulk material handling across mining, ports, power generation, infrastructure and other sectors. In the full process of commodity production and distribution, real-time inventory visualization and management are key links determining supply chain efficiency. However, industry chronicles such as inefficient manual surveys, inadequate GPS estimation accuracy, and weak environmental interference tolerance in traditional stockpile measurement are prone to frequent supply chain bottlenecks, restricting production capacity release. To address this, we are proud to launch the SLDL6300 Laser Coal Pile Scanner. Integrating laser triangulation ranging technology, 3D point cloud modeling algorithms, and industrial-grade intelligent sensing modules, it not only achieves precise measurement of stockpile volume and reserves but also seamlessly collaborates with stockyard automation systems. From three core dimensions of measurement precision, environmental adaptability, and scenario scalability, it redefines the industry standards for bulk storage measurement, delivering an intelligent measurement solution that combines technological sophistication and practicality for global customers.

Core Technical Advantages: Redefining the Benchmark for Precision and Collaboration in Stockpile Measurement

Backed by cutting-edge technical parameters, the SLDL6300 Laser Coal Pile Scanner is tailor-made for extreme industrial environments and complex supply chain scenarios, achieving triple breakthroughs in performance, stability, and collaboration:

• High-precision sensing system: Equipped with a Class 1 eye-safe laser emission module (905 nm wavelength), balancing measurement safety and signal penetration. The 360° omnidirectional scanning design, combined with a high-density data acquisition capability of 20,000 points per second, enables full-coverage measurement of irregular stockpile shapes. Even in complex working conditions such as steep craters and rat holes beyond the natural angle of repose, it can accurately capture 3D data. With a measuring range of 120 meters (under 10% reflectivity conditions), it adapts to diverse scenarios such as large coal yards, mine stockpiles, and port storage. Boasting a scanning accuracy of ≤2 cm, volume measurement error of ＜0.5%, horizontal angle accuracy of 0.01°, and vertical angle accuracy of 0.09°, it provides high-confidence data support for production scheduling, inventory accounting, and trade settlements.
• Industrial-grade environmental adaptability: Adopting an IP67 dustproof and waterproof encapsulation design, paired with an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding structure, it can withstand erosion from harsh working conditions such as high dust, rain, snow, and high temperature/humidity. The wide operating temperature range of -40℃ to 60℃ ensures continuous and stable operation in extreme climatic environments such as cold-region permafrost and tropical open-air sites, without the need for additional protective measures, perfectly matching the extensive operation scenarios of the bulk material handling industry.
• Intelligent operation and collaboration capability: Weighing only 3.8 kg with a compact size (145×145×302 mm), the device can be deployed and operated by a single person. The semi-automatic workflow simplifies redundant steps-manual rotation of the laser telescope triggers automatic scanning, and collected data is stored in on-board high-speed memory in real time. The supporting specialized 3D modeling software enables one-click processing of point cloud data, quickly generating a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and automatically calculating key parameters such as volume, area, and average height, completely replacing inefficient manual single-point measurement and data fitting. Furthermore, it supports seamless connection with SOLIDAT stockyard automation systems. Through multi-source fusion of GPS, radar, and encoders, it builds a complete digital twin model of operations for customers, realizing remote stockyard operation, zoned stockpile control, and dynamic inventory traceability.

Full-Scenario Application Implementation: Empowering End-to-End Digital Transformation of the Supply Chain 

With strong technical adaptability and scenario scalability, the SLDL6300 Laser Coal Pile Scanner has achieved large-scale implementation across multiple industries and supply chain links worldwide, serving as a core technical pillar for enterprises' digital transformation:

• Power Industry: Dynamic inventory checking of coal yards and precise accounting of fuel consumption for thermal power enterprises. Combined with data traceability functions, it optimizes procurement and inventory turnover plans, reduces capital occupation costs, and avoids supply disruptions caused by distorted inventory data.
• Mining Industry: Real-time monitoring of mine stockpile reserves and 3D digital modeling, providing visual decision-making basis for mining planning and production scheduling. It also supports reliable measurement of dead stock (long-term stored materials), helping formulate precise processing timetables and improving resource utilization efficiency.
• Port and Logistics Industry: Dynamic volume monitoring of bulk material stockyards and zoned stockpile control, collaborating with ship loaders, reclaimers and other equipment to achieve coordinated operations, alleviating the pressure of limited port storage capacity and reducing supply chain bottlenecks.
• Infrastructure and Chemical Sectors: 3D scanning of large engineering structures, precise measurement of earthwork volume, and capacity calibration of hoppers and legal measurement containers, ensuring the fairness and accuracy of project settlements and trade settlements, and reducing commercial risks.
