Client Challenge
Faced with the critical task of ensuring the stability of their tailing dam, our client encountered significant hurdles in installing monitoring sensors along the dam wall. Conventional methods, such as manual installation or heavy machinery deployment, were either impractical or excessively costly due to the terrain’s softness and inaccessibility.
Our Solutions
HELIX Neptune can access any terrain, including areas deemed unsafe for human intervention. Equipped with advanced technology, it can install piezometer array sensors with precision and efficiency. Utilizing RTK-level GPS accuracy, the robot navigates the terrain, drags cables to the required length, and pushes sensors into the ground at designated locations. This process eliminates the need for human involvement, significantly reducing safety risks and operational costs.
Client Results
By employing Copperstone Technologies’ solution, our client achieved remarkable results. They successfully installed sensors along the dam wall, enhancing their ability to monitor dam stability effectively. The cost-effective and safe nature of the solution enabled the client to overcome previous barriers, facilitating operational efficiency and project advancement. Additionally, our client experienced peace of mind knowing that their tailings dam was under continuous monitoring without compromising on safety or budget.
