MEWP overhead obstacle collision risk

Overhead Obstacles Threaten Safety at Heights

Operators working on Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWP) face severe collision risks with overhead structures, pipes, and concrete ceilings. Blind spots and misjudgments can lead to devastating industrial accidents and equipment damage.

The solution: An active warning and automatic-stop system that monitors the airspace above the platform continuously, taking immediate action to prevent collisions.

DasIoT MEWP cloud monitoring platform overview

How It Works

Continuous active scanning protects operators throughout every stage of ascension.

01

Platform Rises

The MEWP operator begins ascending toward work area.

02

Sensors Scan

Four ultrasonic sensors continuously scan the space above.

03

Obstacle Detected

Audible & visual warning alerts when obstacle is near.

04

Automatic Stop

The lift platform halts automatically before entering 500mm danger zone.

05

Data Upload to Cloud

Event data is uploaded to the cloud in real time for remote monitoring and analysis.

System Components

Hardware engineered for high performance on site, combined with smart cloud integration.

SENSOR UNIT DasRP 4-in-1 Ultrasonic Sensor Head

4-in-1 Ultrasonic Sensor Head

The sensor head houses four ultrasonic transceivers and mounts at the highest point of the platform via a robust yellow pole.

  • Four ultrasonic transceivers
  • Real-time overhead obstacle detection
  • Integrated audible warning alarm
  • Machine-stop trigger alarm signal
  • Adjustable detection range up to 3m
GATEWAY DasRP gateway unit

Gateway Installed on MEWP

Integrated into the lift platform, the gateway receives detection signals from the sensor head in real time and transmits data to the cloud platform over a cloud connection, providing real-time monitoring and remote management.

  • Real-time cloud transmission
  • Online / offline status broadcasting
  • Alert and automatic-stop event reporting
  • Precision GPS location tracking
  • Remote management dashboard access

Engineered for Extreme Safety

Every detail developed and calibrated to fulfill rigorous jobsite compliance standards.

Real-Time Detection

High-frequency ultrasonic waves detect obstacles instantly up to 3 meters above.

Four-Sensor Coverage

Four individual transducers monitor the space above the work platform.

0.8s Fast Response

Ultrafast feedback loop triggers system response under a second from contact threat.

Automatic Machine Stop

The lift platform halts automatically before entering 500mm danger zone.

Audible Alarm Warnings

Equipped with high-pitched alarms to alert operators immediately.

Cloud Status Monitoring

Synchronizes device status to the cloud.
