Laser Scanner For Heavy Duty Truck Battery-Swap Station

Optical sensor enable enterprises with intelligent production and operation. LGA60 laser scanner developed by Shenzhen ESPE was applied in heavy duty truck battery-swap station, and improve the working efficient.

Application case

Heavy duty truck batter swap stations as a very important part of new energy automotive, are usually set up in thermal power plants, mines, steel mills, freight ports, medium and short distance trunk line and other places to supply battery charging and swpping services for heavy-duty trucks.

In order to improve advantages of medium and heavy truck battery swpping, namely high efficiency, cost reduction, flexibility and safety, industry association has also proposed unified technical specifications for the construction of shared battery swapping vehicles and batter swapping stations for electric medium and heavy trucks.

So heavy truck battery swapping stations have higher requirements for more efficient and intelligent battery swapping.

Requirement of project

Correctly guide the trucks enter swaping area. As the battery of vehicle is heavy and require intelligent lifting for battery swap operations.

Problem

Achieving accurate automatic operation through induction detection.

1. It need to guide vehicle enter swapping area rightly.

2. The battery needs to be identified and accurately positioned so that the intelligent lifting mahcine can grab it.

3. Check if the battery with any fault.
   

ESPE solution

1. Scanner scan stablly outdoor, and the point cloud data is not lost.

   ESPE LGA60 laser scanner can resist strong light <100000 lux, can work well to position battery and without influence by sunshine.

   
   

2. Accurate recognition of shiny black batter surface.

      For shiny black anti-corrosion paint on the battery surface, ESPE LGA60 laser scanner is different from other 

      brand products (lost cloud point data or poor repetition accuracy), and optimizes the algorithm for this      

     surface charateristic and is suitable for scanning and positioning of batteries for outdoor heavy truck battery

     replacement.

Application effect

This project intelligently detect vehicle and battery, and ensure accurate  operation at vehicle guiding, locating battery and battery fault identification. so as to reduce the cost and increase efficiency.

In addition, Shenzhen ESPE LGA60 safety laser scanner can be also applied to safety protection & detetcion complicated indoor industrial environment, as well as changeable outdoor environments.

Indoor complicated safety protection.

LGA60 safey laser scanner is equipped with software, can customize and plan safety protection areas in industrial scenarios.

Application in harsh environment.

LGA60 safety scanner with special surface coating technology and multiple echo processing technology, can cope with scenes such as dust, power and outdoor rain and foggy weather.
