Casestudie TM Bowser-oplossingen

TM Bowser Solutions was founded over 30 years ago and was created, says T&M, with the sole purpose of working with customers to create and run bowsers that solve challenges. Our way is our customers’ way – we always work as a team. We understand that sites cannot run without water or fuel, and so we build bowsers with one purpose in mind: to deliver fuel and water to construction crews in the safest and fastest way possible.’

Installation for TM Bowser Solutions

Our desire to innovate and drive improvement has seen the team at TM solve a range of challenges that otherwise threaten to slow or halt the progression of major projects.’
Een duidelijke betrokkenheid bij de klant, waarvoor veeleisende technologie nodig is om aan de opdracht te voldoen!
The T&M camerasysteem comprises:

  • 8ch opname-eenheid (DVR) met 1TB SSD-opslag (met ondersteuning voor maximaal 4TB)
  • 5 x camera's waarvan 1x gericht op de bestuurder
  • 7-inch LCD-scherm
  • CitySafe linksaf alarm
  • StepProtect-nabijheidssensorsysteem
  • 3 x AI-camera's – Progressief Veilig Systeem

Laten we elk systeem in een logische volgorde bespreken.

Recording System for TM Bowser Solutions

Starting with the recording system, the lads in the TM workshop have created a special tamperproof DVR cover (right), preventing fiddling fingers! Data is stored on a 1TB SSD, giving plenty of storage space. A key aspect of the TrafficAngel DVR is its suspension-protected drive. Before this feature, all DVRs ran the risk of freezing or losing data if the vehicle encountered potholes or jarring road surfaces. Solid state drives (SSD) combined with suspension means TM’s data is safe, no matter the road shock!

Reversing Camera for TM Bowser Solutions

De reversing camera is double-sealed and IP69K-rated (the top rating available short of explosion-proof!) The screws are stainless steel, NOT aluminium, which tends to corrode, turning to powder in the threads, making ongoing servicing and/or replacement an avoidably annoying chore.

The camera has excellent night-time/pitch dark vision, and the refresh rate means it also records well to the DVR at dawn and dusk, a weak spot in many other camera systems out there.

Front Camera for T&M Bowser Solutions

De camera aan de voorkant is our torpedo camera, which gives suitable coverage across the front with the necessary pixel quality to ensure number plates and other important details are written to the DVR without the distortion that can occur on many systems where moving objects are captured.

As you can see from the picture, it’s also small and unobtrusive, and it’s sturdy enough to get knocked by thermos flasks clip clipboards, etc, etc, and live on!

StepProtect-sensorsysteem

T&M also fits our StepProtect sensor system. However, with the advent of TfL’s Progressive Safe System, this has superseded the DVS sensor requirement, and T&M will likely disable this going forward, opting for TrafficAngel’s AI Camera-based PSS solution instead.

StepProtect certainly has its place, though for customers looking to reduce nearside blindspot damage, and many of our customers have saved £££££ in replacement steps and body work as the system warns them when they’re about to hit that blind-spot bollard!

7 inch beeldscherm

Ons 4ch 7 inch monitor (9 inch is also available) has a button lock feature as well as auto-dimming for night driving. A key feature of the screen however is the mount. So many times, a screen and camera system will be let down by the flimsy bracket securing the monitor in the cab.

Onze houder is zo ontworpen dat de bestuurder slechts één vlinderschroef hoeft aan te draaien, wat snelle en nauwkeurige draai- en hoekaanpassingen mogelijk maakt voor elke bestuurder. Draai de vlinder vast en ER beweegt NIETS! Klanten ZIJN DOL op de betrouwbaarheid van ons scherm en houder!

Progressief Veilig Systeem

Moving on to our Progressief Veilig Systeem (the next gen October 2024 DVS requirement for vehicles 12 tonnes and over entering London), right we see our AI corner camera, below right the driver display, and below the passenger A-pillar pedestrian warning display, no wires showing and all looking factory fit!

Below, we see the black AI side camera, which is being fitted to work alongside the existing white non-AI side camera. But an integrated solution is also available where the AI cameras are used as part of the recording system.

Lastly, we see the left turn alarm, safely tucked away but positioned to give out a clear 97dB spoken left turn warning to pedestrians and cyclists in the blind spot. Our alarm is IP69K and resistant to high-pressure water jets, making it a reliable choice for construction vehicles, etc.
