IN 2020 TELEDYNE PDS BROUGHT YOU

We are constantly developing new application to fit our customers needs and match the market requirement. Here are some of last year’s upgrades.

Extended simulator with many new sensors added

The PDS simulator is in use by many customers while dry testing the survey setup in the lab. Is will give you the possibility to simulate many sensors types (GPS, Heading, Dredge guidance, Sonars, …) and sensor variations. We keep extending the simulator with sensor types and we will add variations on an as needed basis. We encourage you to use the simulator and get your survey preparations done more efficiently. Contact us directly at pds@teledyne.com if you would like to learn more.

Added dredge and construction features & utilities

As we care about our customers work, we extend the features to suit our customer’s needs over and over again. This is just a small set of improvements added: Jet dredge application dual pipe and calibration; Wirecrane Jib support; Excavator drilling tool and support; Excavator grab configuration for block placement; Calibration for Ripper and Hammer; Alarm to keep distance between linkages, tracks and cabins of 2 or more operating cranes at the same vessel; Clamshell configuration improved; Support for Artic Boom and Support for multi-layer winches for Plough.

Implemented dredge applications for:

Pile placement using grippers

Extension on the existing PDS Pile drive application. In this method the pile is placed in grippers and the position of the pile is measured by laser scanners. PDS calculates the position, depth, and inclination of the pile, to visualize, guide and register the pile placement.

Vibratory pile drive support

Extension on the existing PDS Pile drive application. In this method an excavator pile vibratory drill drives the pile into the ground. PDS can calculates the position, depth, and inclination of the pile, to visualize, guide and register the pile placement.

Support for Trimble TIN file format

Our intrinsic support for file formats in PDS is quite extensive. However, we do get request for adding more formats; either direct support or import the format and make an already supported format from it. We have added the Trimble TIN format to co-exist next to the regular industry standard TIN format PDS already supported. If you have requests or demands, please contact us at pds@teledyne.com

Support for additional sensors

Teledyne PDS is an optimized solution for both Teledyne Marine products and almost all other available systems in the market from recognized manufacturers.

We have recently added the following sensors to the Teledyne PDS portfolio:
