A heat wave is settling over Quebec for the next few days!

*** Notice to all workers on construction sites *** 

Attention au coup de chaleur; adaptez votre rythme de travail et prenez des pauses, de préférence à l’ombre ou dans un endroit frais.

​How to prevent heat stroke

Tips to prevent heat stroke!

• Drink at least a glass of water every 10, 15 or 20 minutes, even if you are not thirsty.
• Wear light clothing, light colored, preferably cotton (promotes sweat evaporation).
• Cover your head to work outside.
• Adjust your work pace according to your acclimatization to the heat and climatic conditions (e.g. heat, humidity, sunshine).
• Take breaks (hourly, and for an appropriate length of time) in the shade or in a cool place.

Reducing costs is a top priority for operators of large vehicles and a puncture can lead to big problems. Vehicles are a key element of business and just one puncture can throw smoothly planned operations into chaos!

OKO Mining is primarily designed for use off the highway. It can be used on road for slower-moving trucks and service vehicles, and is often used in countries with bad road surfaces; it is preferred to other sealants for use inside inner tubes. 

OKO Minier tire sealant is the solution to your problem.

OKO Mining seals larger holes still and even protects against cuts of a larger size. Whereas, OKO OFF Road is suffi cient for most construction sites and even mining vehicles, OKO Mining should be chosen for the severest puncturing environments

OKO Off Road and OKO Mining sealants are ideal for & function well in:

• Skip Loaders
• Front Wheel Loaders & Tractors;
• Industrial Handling vehicles & Fork Lift vehicles;
• All Large Heavy Industrial Vehicles & All Terrain vehicles

OKO punture free – All the benefits 

• Eliminates expensive downtime of vehicles & idle operators.
• Reduces expensive call-out charges and puncture repair costs.
• Increases the useful life of a tyre.
• Effective for all un-ballasted pneumatic tyres.
• Due to a multi-sealing capability, it seals hole after hole, with minimum pressure loss, again and again.
• Reduces the occurrence of tyre damage caused by run-fl at situations.
• Helps combat tyre under-infl ation.
• Lasts the useful life of a tyre thus giving long-standing protection.
• Suitable for all heavy vehicles and pneumatic tyres.
• OKO Tyre sealants are safe to use & harmless to tyre structures and rubber. COSHH friendly. Non-Flammable and Non-Hazardous. OKO is safe to handle and store. No special training required in its use.

Your target: Zero accidents

• Enhances safety, working conditions & productivity
• Protects against the risk of people/vehicle collisions
• Proven in the field, to be the most efficient collision avoidance solution on the largest installed base of industrial vehicles*.
• Based on studies carried out by Safety Authorities

Using Artificial Intelligence, Blaxtair distinguishes, in real time, a person from an obstacle/object and alerts the driver to the danger, without sounding unecessary alarms.

Enhanced pedestrian safety

• With its ability to differentiate pedestrians and obstacles in real time, Blaxtair alerts the driver to the danger and helps to prevent serious accidents on industrial sites.
• Cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology reinforces the message to employees and business partners, that safety is your top priority.

Increased productivity and better working conditions

• Blaxtair generates only relevant alerts for the driver, avoiding nuisance alarms and alarm fatigue.
• Avoids incurring costs related to downtime, workplace accidents or fatalities.

Highly robust & easy to install

• Operational in harsh and tough environments, e.g. strong vibration, high impacts, wide temperature variance (-40°C to +75°C), glare, mud, snow, fog.
• Waterproof and dustproof (IP69K sensor head).
• Compatible with all types and brands of industrial vehicles (forklift trucks, wheel loaders, excavators, dumpers, etc).
• Customisable detection zones.
• Multiple configurations and options, as required.

BLAXTAIR 3 main elements

1. Stereoscopic sensor head: captures 3D images

2. Processing unit: recognises and localises people in danger thanks to AI algorithms

3. Alert devices: LCD display or LED/Buzzer alerts the driver through visual and audible alarms if a person is detected in the defined danger zone.

Did you know? DID YOU KNOW? The NBS radar RA827 uses reliable 77 GHz high frequency microwave technology

The NBS radar is a collision avoidance system to prevent collisions between machinery and objects / pedestrians. It is mainly used on heavy equipment and commercial vehicles. It is mainly used on heavy equipment and commercial vehicles, It provides a visual and audible alert to operators to avoid any potential danger and allow them to take the appropriate measures in advance.

Blind spots represent a great hazard for workers, because there are zones that do not appear in the field of vision of the driver. Restricted vision due to blind spots is the main cause of major and deadly accidents on the work site. NBS Radar system eliminates blind spots for the driver.

Radar detection system specifications

• Antenna Beam Angle: 120°
• High frequency radar technology 77 GHz
• Detection distance: 0.1 ~ 40m
• Up to 5 detection zones
• Configue by computer or mobile phone (optional)
• Support one or two sensors application
• Screen optional (7” or 10.1”), image alarm overlapping
• System high definition 1080P
