Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) Hazard Monitoring System
At TORCULAX, we are currently dedicating our efforts to the ongoing development of a cutting-edge Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) Hazard Monitoring System. This revolutionary solution incorporates wearable technology, tool-mounted sensors, and a sophisticated cloud-based platform to elevate the standards of HAVS risk management.
System Overview:
Wearable Technology: Our robust, ATEX-rated wearable devices are tailored for operatives, capturing critical data such as trigger time, tools utilized, and cumulative HAV tri-axial acceleration points. Through an enhanced synchronization process with worker devices, we ensure reliable data upload to our cloud-based platform. Advanced algorithms distinguish between not-worn, broken, and instances with no vibration exposure. Real-time warnings are issued to operatives approaching individual exposure limits, ensuring proactive risk mitigation.
Tool-Mounted Sensors: Compact ATEX-rated sensors, seamlessly attached to powered tools, provide accurate recording of vibration intensity. Designed with minimal impact on both tool operation and operator freedom of movement, these sensors uphold precision without compromising efficiency.
Cloud-Based Platform: Our proprietary platform features a user-friendly interface empowering safety team to review and analyse operative data effortlessly. Activities are automatically date-stamped, and robust data storage capabilities facilitate offline data uploads.
Functional and Technical Features:
Minimal Dependencies on Human Actions: We implement automated data capture and synchronization processes to diminish reliance on operative input, streamlining the monitoring workflow.
Reliable Data Uploads: Ensuring robust data storage capabilities, our system holds information until reliable network connectivity is available, minimizing data loss.
Long Hardware Life: Our hardware is meticulously designed for durability, guaranteeing a usable life exceeding 3 years.
Compact and Easily Replaceable: Featuring a compact design that avoids interference with tools or operator movement, our components are easily replaceable and repairable, minimizing downtime.
Accurate Daily Recording: Our system provides objective recording of tools used, trigger time, and cumulative HAV aggregate points, ensuring precision in data collection.
ATEX Rating and Durability: All components, including chargers, boast ATEX rating, and are crafted to withstand challenging environmental conditions.
Battery Life and Charging: Designed with robust battery life for a minimum of 12 hours of operation, our devices can be charged from vehicle electrics without compromising ATEX rating, ensuring continuous and uninterrupted usage.
