TECHNOLOGY specialist Quvo Limited has announced the launch of its UK and Ireland partnership with Blickfeld.
The company has been set up by brothers Allan and Ross Kane, two well-known figures in the waste and recycling industry. The partnership with Blickfeld allows Quvo to exclusively offer the German manufacturer’s LiDAR solutions, described as a high-tech system for the ‘accurate and instant’ measuring of material quantities in stockpiles.
The system can be used in quarries, material recycling facilities, port, bulk handling, and waste applications.
Using LiDAR technology, Quvo’s mapping system can measure the volume and density of materials in stockpiles, providing insights into stock levels and enabling businesses to make more informed decisions about inventory management.
The technology is said to allow companies to save time and money by streamlining the surveying process and reducing the need for manual measurements and inspections.
“We are thrilled to be appointed as the official UK and Ireland partners for Blickfeld’s LiDAR solutions, which we believe will be a game-changer for businesses across a range of industries,” said Allan Kane, MD of Quvo Limited.
“Our system offers a high level of accuracy and precision, as well as a fast and efficient way to measure material quantities in real-time. This means that businesses can quickly and accurately keep track of material stockpiles helping to drive efficiency and reduce costs.”
Quvo revealed its mapping system uses a continuous process of 3D scanning and ‘highly advanced’ software to constantly calculate the volume of a stockpile. The constant recording of the material allows instantaneous adjustments to the volume should material be added or removed with the data visible online in real time, or available on demand.
Quvo has already installed three systems for Scottish clients handling a variety of waste materials. All three companies are said to be reporting instant gains. Levenseat and Cireco, two of the first customers to add the technology, have since placed multiple orders for additional systems.
