traffic-lines vehicle differentiation system

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document discusses a vehicle detection system designed to protect road structures such as bridges and roads from damage caused by overloaded vehicles. The increase in vehicle numbers and weights has surpassed the original design estimates for these structures, necessitating innovative solutions to prevent further damage.

Challenges and Requirements
The primary challenge is to prevent overloaded vehicles from passing through vulnerable structures without causing full road closures. The system must detect overloaded vehicles in real-time, at any speed, with high reliability and accuracy, ensuring 100% protection.

System Components and Functionality

Size Measurement: Utilizes cameras and scanners to measure vehicle dimensions (height, width, length) and identify potential overloads. License plate recognition is used for identifying responsible parties.
Weight Measurement: Employs weighbridges and induction loops to measure vehicle weight in motion, distinguishing axle weights accurately.
Vehicle Diversion: Automatically redirects overloaded vehicles before they reach protected structures, minimizing traffic disruption.

Operational Process
The system triggers an alarm when a vehicle exceeds set weight limits. Overloaded vehicles are stopped and diverted using traffic lights, barriers, and LED signs, with supervision by monitoring personnel.

Benefits

Reliable and accurate measurements under various conditions.
Continuous operation with 24/7 service and automatic diversion within 30 seconds.
Data documentation and retention for up to one year.

Installation and Development
The system can be installed in less than 30 days and is designed for continuous development and adaptation. It includes components like sign bridges, cameras, and renewable energy sources.

Conclusion
The vehicle detection system offers a comprehensive solution for protecting road structures from damage due to overloaded vehicles, ensuring safety and minimizing traffic disruptions.

traffic-lines vehicle differentiation system-3

Identification and diversion of traffic violaters The volume of traffic has been growing steadily for years and many motorway structures are reaching their load limits. In order to minimise stresses and ensure safe continued use, the traffic-lines vehicle differentiation system records all road users with overloads and excess dimensions using precise measurements. The interaction of these different measurement methods guarantees that the vehicle is recognised according to the specified parameters (weight, dimensions, axle load). The data can be used for stocktaking or, in combination with Module...

2-way system of the vehicle detection system Transmitted data per vehicle during travel Dimension (Length, Width, Height) Licence plate Respective Axle weight Traffic continues without interruption. The traffic violator is either diverted or redirected for further inspection. Total weight When is an alarm triggered? The first component is responsible for the weight measurement of moving vehicles (WIM - Weigh in Motion). To differentiate which axles belong to a vehicle, an induction loop is integrated into the road. This loop detects when and for how long a vehicle is positioned over the sensor....
