Command Stockpile

Manage your machines. Manage your Stockpile

Carlson Command is a command-and-control monitoring and data management system that transmits data between machines and the office, increasing safety and productivity throughout the mine site.

Regardless of how big or small the site is, managers can see and monitor multiple machines in multiple views, including plan view, from any location that has an internet connection.

View each machine’s position, monitor cut/fill and elevation in real time and instant message your operators from the office without leaving your desk.

For sites without remote connectivity, data can be stored in the machine and copied to a USB drive for post analysis. Alternatively, contact your local Aptella branch to discuss our site connection solutions.

Carlson Command facilitates:

  • Productivity analysis
  • Historical playback
  • On-site proximity warnings
  • Avoidance zones

Command adheres to Carlson’s Open Positioning Architecture (OPA), supporting open data share.

Features:

  • Automatically updated cut/fill colour map
  • Machine real time position, cut/fill, elevation
  • Operator management and in-cab monitoring
  • Activity, downtime, delay/idle monitoring, reporting and analysis
  • Create grade projects
  • Multiple site management
  • Multiple site views
  • Output of updated existing surface
  • GPS status monitoring and reporting
  • User friendly, easy to learn
  • Data editing and data management
  • Office tools for creating offline data
  • Reports output to Excel
  • Grade project management on rovers (view/delete)
  • Monitor and report all grade alerts

Carlson stockpile machine guidance provides positional data relative to stockpile design and infrastructure. Its GPS system allows for productive work around the clock and in all weather conditions.

Carlson MineGrade Stockpile is an integrated system using Carlson’s easy-to-use operator control box.
