Industrial Applications
Thanks to its 130 m range, 190° field of view, and ability to operate in harsh weather conditions, the LMS511-15100 Heavy Duty is ideal for high-reliability industrial applications:
Port Gate and Container Yard Monitoring
130 m range enables full monitoring of truck lanes at port entrances, automatic detection of unregistered vehicles, and container dimension measurement even in bright sunlight or heavy rain. Performs reliably where cameras fail due to dust or poor lighting.
Outdoor AGV / Robot Navigation
Provides real-time environmental mapping for safe navigation of AGVs in outdoor warehouses, yards, and factory grounds. Integrated heating ensures continuous operation in winter conditions.
Perimeter Security and Factory Protection
190° scanning angle and 10 configurable monitoring fields allow creation of multiple warning and safety stop zones. Ideal for virtual fencing, perimeter surveillance, and intrusion detection.
Distance & Profile Measurement in Heavy Industry
In mining, cement, and steel plants — where dust and extreme temperatures are common — the IP67 rating and integrated heating enable volume measurement on conveyor belts, silo level monitoring, and blockage detection from a distance.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
Vehicle detection, classification, speed measurement, and trajectory tracking. Built-in fog and particle filters significantly reduce false positives in adverse weather.
