HOW SCAN~LINK'S ARMOUR SYSTEM WORKS

  • 1. Effortless Setup & Maintenance-Free Operation

    Workers are equipped with passive RFID tags embedded in their PPE, while machinery is outfitted with a compact antenna and an in-cab display. The 3.0 system’s smaller hardware ensures easy installation across various equipment types, with zero maintenance required.

  • 2. Real-Time Hazard Detection

    The 3.0 Armour System allows for customizable detection zones, including full 360º coverage. 


    When a tagged worker enters the zone, operators receive clear audio and visual alerts, while external alarms warn the worker. The 3.0 system’s improved range and reliability ensure consistent detection, even in challenging environments.

  • 3. Actionable Safety Insights

    If a worker enters the detection zone, the system instantly provides both audible and visual alerts to the equipment operator and the worker, preventing an incident before it occurs.


PROVEN PERFORMANCE IN REAL-WORLD WORKSITES
