Equipment and Technology
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.
