Weir Motion Metrics™ offers a modern, reliable and accurate solution for analysing the size of mined particles, one that does not interrupt operations and requires no reference gauges.
Monitoring systems for mining excavators, wheel loaders and dumpers increase worker safety and operational productivity – they even detect the wear level of teeth on excavator buckets and loader buckets, as well as the size of loaded particles and their volume.
Products in the Motion Metrics™ range include ShovelMetrics™, LoaderMetrics™, BeltMetrics™, TruckMetrics™ and PortaMetrics™ – a complete ecosystem for mines that integrates key data solutions, creates a detailed overview of mining productivity and efficiency, increases safety and eliminates operational downtime.
ShovelMetrics Gen 3™ is the most advanced monitoring service for mining excavators fitted with a shovel bucket. It uses artificial intelligence and computer vision – cutting-edge 3D imaging technology supporting all excavators, loaders, buckets and shovels. It is a fully managed service that includes precise and reliable monitoring of machines and equipment, including detection of a missing tooth or bucket edge.
These features minimise service downtime and protect both your equipment and your employees.
LoaderMetrics™ uses artificial intelligence and thermal detection of missing teeth for all types of wheel loader buckets. A patented lens-cleaning system, controlled either remotely or by the operator, ensures accurate performance even in the most demanding conditions and environments.
All products meet or exceed military standards for temperature, shock, vibration and dusty environments.
TruckMetrics™ – a complete solution for monitoring vehicle loading that provides boulder detection, particle size analysis, load profiling and volume scanning without interrupting production. It uses TruckMetrics™ lenses fitted with an automatic cleaning system.
Thanks to artificial intelligence and a 3D stereo camera mounted on a gantry above the truck, it monitors the roadway and provides real-time video analysis.
BeltMetrics™ uses artificial intelligence and 3D stereo imaging to analyse the size and volume of material carried on conveyor belts – without calibration or object scaling.
PortaMetrics™ Gen 2 builds on eight years of success with the original device – it offers a more powerful and accurate solution for fragmentation analysis, using artificial intelligence and 3D imaging to provide accurate data without the need for a reference scale object. The device can be used to verify blast results or to ensure coverage of locations where no other particle-size analysis systems are installed.
The PortaMetrics system is recommended for both surface and underground operations with adequate lighting.
