iDome provides accurate and live 3D inventory control for all types of domes and ROM pads, adding value to a wide range of bulk material handling processes. Domes and ROM pads are critical buffer zones in bulk material handling processes and are essential for effectively connecting primary crushed ore to further process steps.
The iDome solution ensures reliable process control and automation of both the infeed and outfeed processes. It is the foundation for all future upstream and downstream automation and digitization.
The underlying robust and precise indurad radar technology makes iDome the reliable data source for material handling optimization/automation in any dome.
iDome is the ultimate reliable solution for volume assessment, material behavior monitoring, and level control, suitable for any type of dome.

Multiple distributed radar sensors comprehensively cover the entire surface of the stockpile, allowing for real-time calculation of the actual volume with a refresh rate of approximately one minute for the entire stockpile.
The radar sensors generate a high-resolution image of the pile, enabling them to deliver inventory information with over 99% accuracy.
See the volume of your material at any time, including historical data. The data is available on a browser as well as on industrial interfaces.
inventory measurement you can trust
always up to date, required for automation
Full 3D visualization to users through a web browser, utilizing the latest visualization technologies. This feature allows users to rotate, zoom, and explore the material flow and behavior effectively. Additionally, historical loop playback is available, enabling the review of past data.
The exceptional accuracy of our system, combined with the elimination of the need for data interpolation, provides a true-to-life view of the process and bulk material, ensuring a comprehensive and reliable understanding of operations.

iDome allows for the definition of rows of feeders or individual feeders, and subsequently calculates the total amount of available material, including dead stock, and the height of the material above each feeder.
This information holds significant importance in production scheduling and helps minimize feeder wear, as it enables the maintenance of a certain material bed on top, optimizing the overall feeding process.

allows maintaining material layers to protect feeders
The iDome solution possesses the capability to visually detect and calculate dead stock and holes. This proactive feature empowers operations to take timely actions against these issues before they escalate into critical problems.
Furthermore, the system offers valuable process data that aids in synchronizing pile loading and unloading activities. By optimizing this coordination, it reduces material compaction and minimizes increased stickiness that can lead to rat holes and larger than necessary dead stock. This holistic approach ensures better operational efficiency and prevents potential material handling challenges.

The system is equipped with the capability to set alarms when material conditions exceed predefined limits. For instance, alarms can be triggered if the material is overfilled, underfilled, or if a stack deviates from its intended shape and poses safety concerns.
These thresholds can be conveniently set manually within the software or dynamically calculated based on specific material properties. This flexibility ensures effective monitoring and timely alerts, safeguarding safety and operational integrity.

Steel plant Stockyard Homogenization
indurad has provided Posco Pohang in Korea with both a 3D Stockpile scanning, Stacker Automation and 4D Quality and blending model.
Automatic Block Cutting on Crawler Bucket Wheel Excavator: A multifunctional solution for the world’s largest bucket wheel excavator (240.000m³/day).
The indurad solution provides collision avoidance data and detects any object on either side of the bucket wheel.
At the same time, the system provides cutting depth control and thus increase the productivity of the machine.
indurad proved in a benchmarking field test – comparing indurad radar sensors against a leading industrial laser scanner – that, the standard deviation between radar and laser was only 0.03m, respectively. RWE considers the accuracy of indurad’s radars equal to that of laser sensors. RWE choose to install indurad because of the significantly higher availability offered by radar’s reliable performance under adverse conditions.
