Guinea produces around 50 tons of gold annually, in addition, it is estimated that its potential reserves of this material range from 700 tons, making Guinea the seventh largest producer of gold in all of Africa.
With an approximate area of 245,000km2, the industry accounts for more than 37% of the country's GDP, where mining is a key contributor to economic growth and job creation in West Africa, making gold an important commodity in Guinea, as international exploration funding in the country is increasing significantly.
A common feature in gold mines are deposits with coarse-grained sediments that are transported with dumper vehicles, or in other words, trucks that have a tilting box to load and unload large earth movements in quarries, tunnels or as in this case, mines. To be able to control and manage these earth movements more efficiently, Giropes installed a weighbridge managed by a GST2 terminal with connection to the G2Automatic software and UHF reader kit that reads and records the access credentials of the vehicles, turning the scale into a self-managed station that does not need an extra operator to manage it.
The weighing station is complemented by a CCTV and ANPR camera system that provides visual control of the vehicle license plates. In addition, it includes the Gestruck software that will allow them to remotely manage the terminal from any PC.
GST2 Terminal
Transform your bridge scale into self-managed stations
Self-service weighing terminals allow heavy vehicle drivers to weigh their loads without the presence of a scale operator.
The GST2 is a terminal with various hardware add-ons that provide added value to the weighing process, such as RFID readers or vandal-proof intercoms, as well as accessories that complement and provide security to the process, such as CCTV cameras or lifting barriers.
Its installation is fully adaptable to the required height depending on the type of vehicle that will pass through the scale and is available in two versions: stainless steel and painted steel.
By using terminals that automate the weighbridges, drivers can perform all weighing operations without the need for external assistance, thus boosting efficiency and the flow of vehicles to monitor.
At Giropes we are specialists not only in the manufacture and installation of scales, but we also have experts who advise and recommend the best options according to the needs of each project, as well as specialist technicians who travel to perform any type of maintenance or tuning and a remote helpdesk team capable of managing any type of incident or resolving doubts that may arise related to our software.
