Crane automation for efficient UXO removal operations
For the execution of UXO removal operations, Bodac approached Seatools for the delivery of a crane monitoring and automation solution. By taking the DipMate Pro backhoe dredging monitoring and control system as a basis, the system was further extended with custom developed functionalities such as AHC, tool verticality, and automatic grid survey. With automatic grid survey, the survey tool is automatically positioned by means of controlling slew, boom, stick, and tool arm along a defined pattern. By drawing extensively upon our advanced simulation capabilities, the project was delivered successfully within a short time span which allowed Bodac to perform safe and cost efficient UXO removal operations.
