Vehicle Activated Speed Signs and MVIS 

Written by

In the world of quarry operations, safety is paramount. With heavy machinery, large vehicles, and personnel working in often challenging environments, maintaining safety standards is crucial. One of the key advancements in promoting safety within quarries is the implementation of Vehicle Activated Speed Signs (VASS) and Mobile Visual Information Systems (MVIS). 

Vehicle Activated Speed Signs (VASS)

What is Vehicle Activated Speed Signs? 

Vehicle Activated Speed Signs, often referred to as VASS, are electronic signs placed strategically within quarry sites or can be trailer mounted to ensure slowed traffic site wide, meaning you can monitor and display the speed of approaching vehicles. These signs are equipped with sensors that detect the speed of an approaching vehicle and display it to the driver in real-time. If the vehicle exceeds the safe speed limit, the sign may flash or display a warning, alerting the driver to slow down. These solutions can also be fitted with Solar Panels, meaning that when strategically placed they can have run times months longer than a pole mounted solution.

The MVIS VASS sign also has the added benefit of ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition), allowing the site to capture the number plate of any offending vehicle.  The online platform allows the safety team to run a report that captures the information, showing the speed and number plate, allowing the team to contact the haulier to discuss the speeding incident with clearly defined data. 

Benefits of VASS in Quarries: 

  • Enhanced Safety Awareness: By providing real-time feedback to drivers, VASS helps raise awareness about speed limits and encourage adherence to safety guidelines. 
  • Reduced Accidents: Speeding is a common cause of accidents in quarries. VASS can help mitigate this risk by prompting drivers to maintain safe speeds. 
  • Compliance Monitoring: Quarry managers can use data collected from VASS to monitor compliance with speed limits and identify areas or times where speeding incidents are more prevalent.

The Impact on Quarry Safety

The implementation of Vehicle Activated Speed Signs represents a significant step forward in enhancing safety within the quarry sector. By leveraging advanced technology to monitor vehicle speeds and conduct thorough inspections of data, quarries can effectively reduce the risk of accidents, improve compliance with safety regulations, and create a safer working environment for all personnel. 

Conclusion 

As technology continues to evolve, so does its application in industrial sectors such as quarry operations. Vehicle Activated Speed Signs Systems exemplify how innovative solutions can address longstanding safety challenges. By investing in these technologies, quarry operators not only prioritize the well-being of their workforce but also contribute to more efficient and sustainable operations overall.

Small Footprint. Big Impact.

Written by

Developed back in 2016, the HD Compact  was the first portable VMS of its size available to the UK market.  

With over eight years of Research & Development, the HD Compact has undergone significant development since that first version. The latest version boasts many new features, such as integrated solar power, and the clever addition of a chevron frame, perfect for over height work. 

Here, we shine the spotlight on 4 of the many aspects that make the HD Compact excel in urban environments. 

  1. Small Footprint

As our smallest portable VMS, the HD Compact boasts an impressively small footprint. Urban environments often have limited space for construction work or road maintenance, so when it comes to messaging, how site managers use that space is of critical concern. 

With the HD Compact, site managers do not need to compromise on messaging in the same way as they would for static signs. Using web browser or a mobile device, operators can programme or change messaging quickly and easily, creating cycled messages too that can communicate multiple messages using the same sign. 

HD Compact VMS

This allows more detailed information to be communicated without taking up any more space, leaving room for other equipment that may help to increase safety, or simply by keeping the site’s area small, reducing the risk to workers, pedestrians and drivers.

  1. HD Display

Whilst this is a small unit, the HD Compact still boasts an impressive 28 x 28 matrix with a 20mm pixel pitch. This allows for the display to show a wide range of messaging and pictograms, enabling site managers to break down language barriers and communicate important messages effectively. 

The display also features fully compliant EN12966 red and white dual colour LEDs, allowing messages to contain emphasis and display effective pictograms. 

HD Compact

Using bright dynamic signs instead of dull static ones offers an obvious advantage in that messages are clear and stand out more, especially in the dark, which could help to increase safety at any time of the day.

  1. Solar Power

Integrating solar power with our HD Compact was a development that brought it in line with our other portable VMS, making our full VMS range solar powered. Due to the HD Compact’s very low power demands, solar power is a powerful addition to the unit, allowing it to offer highly extended run times under the right conditions. 

The addition of solar power reduces the need for battery changes which can be a health and safety issue for any TSCO, having extra bodies on the ground in road works. It also helps cut the project’s carbon footprint too. Reduced battery changes means, a reduced number of trips from our nearest depot to the sign and then back again, minimising fuel use. This could be important for a company’s corporate social responsibility goals, as well as helping to cut down emissions seen in town and city centre’s, increasing safety for everyone. 

This clever Solar Powered Compact base can also be adapted to replace the HD screen, with our small CCTV unit making it a truly multi-functional product. 

  1. Data Collection Radar

Like all our solar powered VMS, the HD Compact comes integrated with a Data Collection Radar that can collect traffic trend data on time, date and speed. 

In urban environments, this can be of great use for planning and safety, allowing site managers to report on levels of traffic around the work site, which can highlight risks and allow them to act on those risks. 

HD Compact VMS BaseHD Compact VMS Analytics

Combined with the sign’s messaging capability, the Data Collection Radar makes this unit a perfect solution to deploy in the lead up to works being done, giving drivers warning of the disruption as well as collecting data on levels of traffic, allowing site managers to address risks before work even starts. 

If you would like to speak to our friendly team about buying a HD Compact, you can call MVIS on 01629 580 570 or you can email us at: sales@m-vis.co.uk. 

Enhancing Safety and Efficiency: Why Quarries Need Mobile Visual Information Systems Products 

Written by

In the realm of quarry operations, safety and efficiency are paramount concerns. Integrating Mobile Visual Information Systems (MVIS) products addresses these challenges head-on, offering many benefits that significantly enhance operational processes and quarry safety protocols.

Let’s delve into why quarries should prioritize the adoption of MVIS Intelligent Quarry Systems (IQS): 

Real-time Visibility and Monitoring 

Quarries are dynamic environments where constant movement of heavy machinery, personnel, and materials occurs. MVIS products such as the Compact Portable CCTV Solution and Portable Solar Powered Site & Compound CCTV cameras, provide real-time visibility across the site. This capability allows quarry managers and operators to monitor operations remotely, identify potential hazards, and promptly respond to emergencies. 

Improved Safety Protocols 

Safety is non-negotiable in quarries due to the inherent risks associated with heavy equipment and challenging terrain. These MVIS products enhance safety protocols: 

The MVIS PORTABLE VMS-A and PORTABLE VMS-C. They can be used to display safety messages to quarry personnel and visitors to ensure all safety procedures are adhered to. Allowing the health & safety team to provide relevant live messaging on any safety concerns, planned blasting or restricted areas. 

Access 

Quarries are dangerous places. Employees who work at the quarry are aware of the location’s hazards. Visitors to the site, however, are often ignorant about quarries’ dangers.   

By using the MVIS SOLAR-POWERED BARRIER you can use the whitelist/Blacklist functionality to allow on site staff members, but ensure visitors stop and report to reception prior to entering site, this ensures only access to those you want on site. 

Mobile Visual Information Systems (MVIS) products are not merely technological upgrades for quarries; they are essential tools that enhance safety and streamline operations. By investing in MVIS products, quarries can achieve significant improvements in efficiency, mitigate risks, and ultimately create safer working environments for their personnel. Embracing these innovations is not just about keeping up with industry trends but about prioritizing the well-being of everyone involved in quarry operations.

Hillhead Show: Solar-Powered Solutions for the Quarry Industry

Written by

2 years ago, MVIS first attended the Hillhead Exhibition Show. Since then we have been doing market research into the quarry sector, ensuring the products we exhibited were right for you. Giving us one of our most successful trade shows to date.  

Why did it prove so successful?

When we visited the Hillhead show two years ago, we were unsure as to what the needs of the quarry industry were, realising that our products had a use but were not solving a problem. Over the 2 years of research, we were able to pinpoint any unsolved problems that the quarry industry may have with their traffic management, meaning we were able to help rectify them.

We are certain that the products showcased are perfect for sites as they are robust, portable and solar powered. Delegates also assured us how appropriate our products are as they were open to sharing interest in our products.

Especially one of our newest Solutions. The Vehicle Activated Speed Sign (VASS), During Hillhead we have been monitoring the speed of people coming past our sign, some of them sharing in the fun and seeing how fast they could go, reaching speeds of 10-15MPH at full sprint. But this Speed Sign is clearly not designed to see the speed of people at trade shows.

It was purpose made to monitor speeds of vehicles and alert sites to people who are speeding with the in-built ANPR Camera. Allowing the Quarry team to produce a report to give the drivers a warning, also capturing serial speeding vehicles and drivers.

Having time to prepare and research has ensured we have been able to take products that are going to help keep the quarry industry safe.

Another of our new innovations which proved incredibly popular was our Solar Powered Barrier. This clever solution provides quarry owners with a robust security solution complete with ANPR activation, to not only improve safety in quarries but also enhance productivity. With solar and battery power, the barrier is able to perform up to 900 operations per day.

Hillhead Show: Solar-Powered Solutions for the Quarry Industry

A Show of MVIS Firsts

New Partners

This year at Hillhead we have welcomed new partners onto our stand. Intelligent Traffic Solutions (ITS), integrating their traffic lights with the new MVIS Solar Barrier and Solar Gates with their Stop-Go remote controlled system.

Ben’s First Hillhead

It is also the first Hillhead Exhibition for Marketing Executive, Ben Ashman, who has been able to walk around the show looking into potential future products, how our competitors have done on their stands and gaining important intel into the quarry sector.
Having never done the show before but hosting at the NEC Ben had this to say:

“This show is unlike anything I have ever seen; I am used to the NEC or other indoor settings. It has been refreshing to do an exhibition outside and all of the people within the sector are so friendly. All of them have been happy to give me intel as to what they need for their quarries, construction and recycling sites. The people I have met have been open books and happy to advise on what is needed. There is no better way to do market research than getting stuck in”

Scott’s First MVIS Show

This year we have had the honour of hosting our new Group CEO, Scott Paton. Scott visited us to meet potential new customers and experience what an MVIS show is all about. Showing him our purpose for these shows: Market Research, Talking to customers, new and existing, and getting our presence into new sectors. Also being there to over-see the integration of the new products and make himself known as the new Group CEO of a growing Intelligent Quarry Solutions company.

To Conclude

MVIS have had yet another successful trip to the Hillhead Exhibition show, ensuring that we are moving in the right direction with the quarry industry. As opposed to shoehorning products in that have no need.

We have been happy to introduce new partners and staff onto the stand at the show seeing if there is a need for VMS in this sector.

The team are already eager to return to Hillhead. Bringing more Ice Scrapers next time!

Festivals and Events: Struggles and Solutions for Advertising

Written by

Of all the Sectors affected recently with economic changes, the Events Sector has been hit the hardest. 

Why Is That? 

With issues such as the ‘Cost of Living Crisis‘, people are not allocating parts of their monthly budget towards Events. Because of this, Events companies and Festivals are struggling to bring in the important revenue that can be allocated towards advertising. 

The Effect. 

Without Events budgets being allocated to advertising, they are receiving no exposure. Meaning people are not informed of events being hosted in local areas. Meaning they are relying on word of mouth and Social Media to get their message across. 

Without important Banners, Leaflets or Signage being placed on roadsides or in certain local stores, Festivals and Events are missing out on an older audience. 

Posters or Banners are also one use so is it worth designing a new banner for one use?  

VMS FOR FESTIVALS AND EVENTS

The Solution: MVIS VMS. 

MVIS VMS are programmable over any length of hire or sales using the handy WebStudio Webpage. Meaning, you do not have to stay to one message, they can be programmed to have pictograms, slogans, or details on purchasing tickets or dates. 

MVIS Customer Relations team will deploy and Collect the VMS. This way Festivals and Events companies do not have to collect promotional material. It is sorted by MVIS’ Team. 

What are the other benefits of MVIS? 
  • Recognised Safety – Our products are safety solutions, being on any worksite ensures that you are practicing safety and means that you will be recognised as a safe event by customers and officials. 
  • Wayfinding – our products are not only great for advertising but for helping you find your way to parking or to specialised areas within your event. 
  • Site Security -  our ITS Product, the Solar Powered Barrier is fit with ANPR. Uploading a White/Blacklist to WebStudio ensures that only certified people are entering. Our range of CCTV also ensures a watchful eye over your site. 
  • Environmentally Friendly – All of our products are Solar Powered and refurbished in our workshop. Meaning Festival and Events organisers can shout about an environmentally safe festival. 
  • Long Battery Life – As mentioned, our products are solar powered. So our battery life spans the entirety of your Event, long or short. 
  • Cost Effective – Hiring VMS does not hurt budgets as much as is assumed.

What Can An MVIS VMS Do For You?

Written by

The MVIS VMS is a versatile piece of equipment, made in the UK to meet UK needs.

Our VMS are commonly seen on the side of the motorway, but the potential of our VMS is endless. With a wide range of uses our VMS has many different areas of expertise and applies to many different sectors of business.

Here are just a few examples of what VMS from MVIS are suitable for: –

 

Highways

MVIS’ leading product is most known for being seen at the side of motorways helping the UK to achieve safer highways. MVIS provides a scalable, responsive, and cost-effective solution to the problems within the sector of traffic management.

These are but some of the perks of hiring a sign from a company such as MVIS, the VMS keeps traffic moving and the roads safe, but also with the MVIS environmental sensor you can measure the impact your scheme is having on the local area, these can be attached to any of our ITS products.

Our VMS are also equipped to tell you the length of potential travel times accordance to the work on the highways, a simple yet effective use that will affect a road users’ journey.  They will be able to adhere their journey in accordance to the lead times given to drivers to ensure they get to their destination as efficiently as possible while also keeping them informed while on the UK’s roads.

VMS-A’s are tailor made for Roads that have a speed limit of under 50, where as a VMS-C is made for those High Speed Jobs that require you to see the sign before you have passed them on A-Roads or Motorways, roads over 70MPH.

 

Airports

MVIS’ VMS signs are created to inform, this can be informing of upcoming traffic problems in any sector.  For example, at an airport, it’s easy to imagine that airport car parks get busy, especially around the school holidays. The solution…use one of MVIS signs, they are the perfect solution to the problem of overcrowded parking lots. It is easy to program a sign to redirect traffic to a different lot or even to express the potential wait times.

The importance of getting a message across is one of MVIS highest priorities, if an airport is in need of getting important information across to customers, such as the changing of a gate or the cancellation of a flight, why not do it at the beginning of their holiday at the entrance to the airport?

 

Construction

Site safety is important! As an employer, the number one priority is to keep the team safe and to look after a competent workforce, MVIS are one of the leading SME companies in prioritising the safety of their employees and the safety of their customers sites.

A VMS from MVIS is perfect for a construction site whether it be on the side of the busiest motorways or in the city centre. VMS’ can keep the area around the constructions site clear and decongested meaning constructions workers are able to perform their tasks in a distraction free but most importantly safe environment for them to be able to produce the best work possible.

All our VMS can be fitted with a radar to ensure that motorists driving around the sites are watching their speed.  If a vehicle exceeds a certain speed the VMS can display a speed roundel advising of the site speed and a message saying “SLOW DOWN” on the screen ensuring drivers adhere to the sites speed limits.

 

Quarries

Quarry sites contribute materials for construction to a wide variety of companies across the nation.

Over time when quarries have served their use, they are transformed into Landfill sites, helping local councils eradicate their litter problems and preventing sites from overthrowing and hurting the environment.

Where does MVIS play apart in this? We are the leading company in Traffic Management on sites across the UK. Trucks will come into a site and will get stuck in Traffic waiting for one way routes to be cleared, an MVIS Intelligent LED Sign is used to direct traffic with messages such as ‘Next Truck’ or ‘Wait at the Bottom’.

We have been able to implement this across many Quarry sites and it has proven to work keeping quarry managers happy and HGV drivers safe.

 

Events

Stand out from the crowd with responsive, high impact event communications.

If an event is being a planned whether it be a Festival, Sporting day, Pride, Fun Run for charity, a farmers’ market at the peak of popularity or a corporate event that the big sale relies on. There is no better way to make sure that the event goes without informing customers, hiring a sign from MVIS promotes your event.

VMS signs have many ways of being a help to any event, they can display timings of the events and when they start, allocate parking spaces for customers or even to advertise an event to make it as successful as a customer wants it to be.

With a proven track record of effective deployment and success, MVIS products have been tried and tested on some of the biggest events this country has ever seen, such as the 2012 Olympics, Brighton Pride, V Festival, Silverstone and The Grand National.

 

Ports

A journey to the port ready to set sail on a fantastic holiday is a nice way to spend hard earned time off work, but a port can also be an unsafe area.  Most port workers struggle to allocate traffic management and to enforce speed zones in the area to make sure that port workers are in the safest environment they can be.

Not only can MVIS ensure worker safety, but passengers setting sail on the high seas can get all the information they need such as where they need to park, where their boat is docked and how they need to get there.

 

Our VMS have many uses in all sectors and are adaptable to all situations.  As a result of its flexibility, It is easy to understand why a customer would want to hire a VMS from MVIS and why customers keep coming back to us for both hire & sale.

As well as award winning customer service, an MVIS VMS has all the extras and much more. As a company, MVIS has a lot to offer in accordance with safety and keeping workforces in top condition so they can continue to keep the UK running.

Hire VMS from The Best at MVIS!

No matter the size or customer, we adopt the ‘no task is too small’ approach on its mission to deliver a level of service it can only define as ‘platinum’. MVIS has always valued its customers and has built some excellent long-standing relationships on the back of its commitment to service as well as its products. To showcase this commitment, MVIS proudly stand by their ‘Platinum Service Promise’ .

The MVIS Platinum service promise delivers. The MVIS quality & service document serves to outline what the company considers to be ‘Platinum Level Service’ and also highlights just how special its services are.

MVIS has always held fantastic relationships with its clients, and the company regularly receives positive feedback and comments crediting it for one of the aspects listed in the quality & service document. Each time a customer approaches MVIS with enthusiastic comments about its service, MVIS see this not just as an opportunity to celebrate its collective achievement, but also to reinforce this standard of service within the team. Reinforcing standards in moments of praise makes gives it special emphasis and reinforces a message from a positive position rather than trying to react to a negative one. This aids with staff feeling appreciated, delivers job satisfaction and rewards their hard work.

We spoke to a number of MVIS employees about their view on what platinum service is, and how it fits into their own specific roles.

We asked, “What does Platinum Level Service mean to you?”

Anne Ashman, UK Group Commercial and Operations Director comments:

“The Platinum Service Promise is a symbol of our commitment to service and customers. We have thought long and hard about a way we can demonstrate this, culminating in this promise to clients to always give them our very best. We are incredibly proud of our service record and the positive comments we receive from our customers.”

Anne continued:

“With that said, it’s vital that we never lose sight of the importance of continuous improvement. Our Platinum Service Promise works in conjunction with our customer’s comments and internal audits to keep us on our toes, make us accountable and give us an opportunity to work on areas that may need another look. Having this trusting relationship with our customers allows us to consistently cater to their needs so we don’t miss anything as their needs evolve.”

Jon Larkins, Midlands Delivery Hub Supervisor added:

“We know the moment we leave HQ that we are representing MVIS – and therefore carry an expected standard with us. That standard being platinum. Whether it’s the quality of our maintenance work, right through to how we interact with other contractors on site or the passing public – nothing short of outstanding will do.”

With Anne and Jon both well established as part of the MVIS team, serving 10 and 5 years respectively, what’s expected is ingrained in their day-to-day operations.

For a perspective from those not so experienced, a more newcomer perspective is offered by Clair Tranter and Mia Maycock, both in MVIS’ Customer Relations team. Both recent recruits, Clair and Mia explained to us how the bar was set upon joining the company, and what platinum service means to them.

Clair told us:

“I was left in no doubt throughout the recruitment process with MVIS that ‘client centric’ is absolutely the ethos here. Our customers and the service we provide them comes above all. We do what we can, every day to assist their operations and provide something that’s unrivalled when it comes to service.”

April added:

“It was actually one of the main reasons that the role appealed to me. Working in customer relations, there has to be a passion for service, so coming into a company that places customer satisfaction above all was a great fit. It’s very clear to me how MVIS has garnered such a strong reputation when it comes to its levels of service, as everyone in the business knows it’s priority number one. Now I’m looking forward to playing my part in delivering that platinum promise myself.”
