MOBA Latest Automation Systems for Higher Performance and Efficiency

This year MOBA is launching two of its latest automation systems. MDS-2000 for drilling machine and Vision Link 2D for excavators in addition to the recently launched GS-506 motor grader leveling system for earthmoving and the Big Sonic-Ski® for sensor pavers. Together with the MOBA-matic controller, the Big Sonic-Ski, that eliminates the painstaking string line method, is the most flexible leveling system for sensor pavers. Also on display will be the new HMI concept for the OEMs who wish to upgrade their operating panels. These systems will be on display at Excon 2011 from Nov 23^rd to 27^th at Bangalore, India. One will find MOBA at stall No: 40 in German Pavilion, Hall 1.

Imagine, what makes an F-1 race car run smoother even at a thrilling speed of 380 km/hr. It’s not just the car but also a very smooth road to maintain stability.

The country’s first ever F1-race track is ready with its debut F1-race at Buddh International Circuit, Greater Noida in the capital city, New Delhi. This track is built with the latest German technology by MOBA Big Sonic-Ski® that has made it possible to achieve such an excellent riding quality. The racers would love such a track.

This technology eliminates the use of string line while laying the BC layers where smoothening of the road is taken care over road waves, which make the top surface super fine. The innovating measuring method with five ultrasonic sensors and its reliability make the Sonic-Ski together with the MOBA-matic controller a state of the art system for leveling control. With the MOBA Big Sonic-Ski® non-contact averaging system, made using three such Sonic-Ski® over a length of 13 meters the paver produces the smoothest road surface by averaging out irregularities over long distance and thus improves the mat quality even when the reference is less than perfect. Resurfacing of the roads could not be this easy, even with ongoing traffic as the Big Sonic-Ski does not require string line. MOBA has delivered four sets of Big Sonic-Ski® system for the prestigious F-1 race track and several to end users and esteemed OEMs for highway projects as well.

MOBA MDS-2000 for Drill/Pile Rigs – More efficiency by increasing working speed, reducing cost and improving quality

The MDS-2000 system for drilling machine is developed to meet the growing demands of the construction and mining industry. It is best characterized by its control accuracy, modular architecture, and its new HMI with graphic interface. It provides the highest level of precision and allows for more effective and efficient drilling. This means the same work can be completed much faster and a precisely.

Key features of the system are:

• Precision of depth and angle of mast inclination
• Stores each drill hole data for transparent billing
• Drilling can be stoped automatically
• Engine and work data logging extracted in USB pen drive
• Operator-friendly and robust HMI for harsh environment
• GSM and GPS based data telemetry

Vision Link 2D & Vision 3D system for Excavators

There is an increased awareness of using automation systems on excavators which not only assists the operator but also increases the overall efficiency of the job, thus saving fuel and meeting tight deadlines. The use of slope sensors and trigonometry helps determine the absolute position of the excavator arm, boom and bucket. Critical job sites can be well-handled without damaging the machine. 2D graphic interface helps the operator understand the position of bucket on the ground better. Special jobs like dredging slope cutting and blind excavation can be accurately achieved with ease.

Key features are:

• Absolute bucket position/movement on in-cabin touch screen HMI
• Helps prevent under/over excavation
• Extremely necessary in job sites where bucket is not visible
• 3D terrain maps with GPS connectivity
• Upgradable to full 3D with dual GNSS and machine location
