Detection

      We are using reconnaissance drones to survey designated territory, detect the landmines, unexploded ordnance (UXO) and mark their positions. Unmanned      Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are remotely controlled at a reliable communication distance of up to 10 km by the phone/laptop/remote control devices.

   UAV drones:

     – Work duration on full battery charge : 18-70 min.

     – Working altitude 30cm-2 m above ground, for most effective coverage  . 

     – Max speed 1-8 m/s

     – Radius of detection up to 2m. 

     – Detection method: photo / video / magnitometer

         Upon completion of area survey, the minefield map is being created for the following mine removal or detonating in place.

  • UAV types:

       – Magnetometers

       – Ground Penetrating Radar

     UAV magnetometers

          Detect metallic pieces up to  1,5 m deep

          Scans area up to 10 ha per day ( 8 – hr shift)  

       Transmits surveyed area to operator’s laptop computer

  • Photo Surveying UAV

    Creates digital imaging map of the area     

    Photo coverage 10 ha per day ( 8 – hr shift)

      Resolution 15-20 MP 

                                                         

               Safe Removal/Disposal

      State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SESU) is using demining Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) to remove, dispose , detonate in place the land mines , UXO and bombs. UGV machines are remotely controlled at a reliable communication distance of up to 5000 m by the phone/laptop/remote control devices.

  Clearing of all conventional antipersonnel and antitank land mines and IED removal assistance

  • Mine clearance width 2.6m
  • Mine clearance depth 300/350 mm
  • Working efficiency (max) 5,000 / 6,000 sq m/hour
  • Blast resistance 9 kg TNT
  • Engine TATRA T3C-928-81 turbo
  • Working speed 9 km/h
  • Remote control range 5,000 m
  • Remote control battery life 11 hr.

      Upon completion of land mine removal & disposal the Ukrainian government to officially commission the assigned piece of land for common use.

       In a process of landmines & UXO removal from the ground we are using demining  robots.   

   –   The robot delivers a charge for controlled   detonation, delivery of tracer cats to determine the nature of an object, video reconnaissance of a route or object.

   –   Carrying capacity up to 50 kg

   –   3-way manipulator arm with grip

   –   Gripper lifting capacity up to 3 kg

   –    Remote control

   –    Video monitor

   –    Signal transmission up to 300 m of direct operation, or up to 150 m through obstacles/buildings.

                   Detonation in place
