The MARIMATECH Laser Docking System uses two lasers mounted on the jetty which measure distance to the side of the ap-proaching ships and then calculates the speed and angle of the vessel. This informa-tion can then be displayed on a jetty mounted Digital Large Display (DLD), wireless devices such as handheld pagers or PDAs and on control room computer monitors.

The LDS can also be integrated with a Moor-ing Load Monitoring System (MLMS) and Environmental Monitoring System (EMS).

• Safety

High precision laser measurement and real-time updates on DLD and hand-held displays prevents ac-cidents and fender damage due to excessive speed.

• Reliability

Simple and robust design guaran-tees consistency as well as excellent performance in adverse weather conditions.

• Precise

Laser technology is currently the most precise instrument to mea-sure ship speed, distance and angle.

• Longrange

Lasers can start measuring from a distance of up to 300 metres.

• Costeffective

Minimum maintenance and long product life make for a cost effective solution.

• Completesystemintegration

High-quality LMS4 units and reliable software allow for integration of EMS and MLMS.

LASER

All MARIMATECH lasers are certified for Haz-ardous Zone 1 EEx installation and are Class 1 eye safe. Depending on the application lasers can start measuring from 100-300 metres and can be in stainless steel or aluminium housing.The lasers should be mounted with a minimum spacing of 25 metres and maximum depending on the size of the vessels. Typically the lasers are installed on the side of the jetty or in a location where they don’t interfere with the jetty operation and yet easy to access for cleaning.

LASER TELESCopE

MARIMATECH offers several elevator systems (telescope) for the lasers in case of large varia-tions in tidal difference. The elevators make sure that the laser never comes into contact with seawater, so ensuring reliable measure-ments. Should the power fail, the gear motor is fitted with an emergency clutch making it easy to lift the telescope manually. These are available both as manual and elec-tronic versions.

LASER TRACkER

MARIMATECH supplies a Laser Tracker as an efficient alternative to a telescope solution. Using the built-in intelligent tracking software the laser can handle all ship sizes and any tidal variations. In addition to being a cost-effective solution, the Laser Tracker requires minimal maintenance and saves space. Please note that this solution cannot be installed close to the ship. Minimum distance must be 10 meters.

LASER InSTALLATIon

The MARIMATECH lasers are supplied with a standard mounting bracket, which allows nu-merous different configurations, meaning that it can be installed almost anywhere on the jetty. You will notice different examples throughout this brochure.

The MARIMATECH DLD shows the data be-ing collected by the laser units and is visible to the pilot from approximately 250 metres day or night. The DLD can show speed, distance and angle and using “speed ar-rows” the pilot can also see whether speed is increasing, decreasing or constant. Three speed warning lamps - green, amber, red - indicate if approach speed is safe.

The DLD can be mounted on support legs ranging from 1-4 metres, which are de-signed to be able to withstand wind loads of up to 60 m/s (optional). The DLD does not require instrument air and needs minimal maintenance.

The DLD can be supplied with an electronic turntable with a rotation angle of 330° which is controlled locally or remotely. The DLD is also available with an optional approach angle display mounted on top. MARIMATECH also offers a DLD Lite, visible from 175 metres, which is a smaller ver-sion of the standard DLD. The Lite can be mounted on a traditional support leg or using a bracket it can be mounted on a variety of structures ranging from buildings to a suitable jetty steel construction such as the gangway tower.

pC

MARIMATECH supply a standard high quality robust rack console with front and rear access, which can house a 19” monitor, computer, printer, QRH remote release and several LMS4 units.

The control room PC can be supplied to the exact specification of the client. With MARIMATECHs LMS4 system the desktop PC is predominantly a viewing tool with report printing facilities, further-more the PC will store reports for as long as the cli-ent requires. Using the LMS4 as a building block the MARIMATECH system does not depend on the PC and should the PC go down during the approach, the system will continue to work and data will be stored using LMS4 built-in memory. This makes the system very reliable and safe.

Work station PCs can be added to the system and more operators can use the system simultaneously. Note that with the above described system struc-ture the MARIMATECH LDS system can be delivered without a PC.

pAgER / pDA

MARIMATECHs intrinsically safe pagers and PDAs can be crucial to safe berthing operations. Using UHF frequencies these devices can show approach, MLM and EMS data.

The range of the pagers is up to 2-3 km and the PDAs (using Wi-Fi technology) is roughly 200-300 metres.

DoCkMASTER DISpLAy

The DDM 647 and DDM 12 displays are designed for installation near the jetty berthing line as a support display for the dockmaster during berthing operations. The displays will indicate berthing data such as speed, distance and angel of vessel bow and stern relative to the fenders. Displays are also capable of integration with EMS data.

SofTwARE / REpoRTS

The MARIMATECH Dockmaster version 5.0 is the latest version of the standard applica-tion software for the LDS systems.It is a configurable standard program devel-oped by MARIMATECH engineers and can be scaled from a small system with 2 lasers and one large display to a multi terminal system with 5 or 6 terminals and 50+ LMS4 units.The Dockmaster 5.0 contains a designer package which is used by the MARIMATECH to ‘customize’ the system to the individual user requirement. This is done without changing the kernel program and by using this structure the software can easily be upgraded and supported.The software is divided into different sub-programs: One is controlling the berthing, one is controlling the mooring and the last sub-program controls the EMS.

wAvE AnD TIDE LASER SEnSoR

MARIMATECHs wave and tide laser is opti-mised for all weather wave height and wave spectrum measurements, while also provid-ing tidal information. The laser technology allows measurement through steam, snow, rain and water spray.

CuRREnT SEnSoR

The sensor uses the Doppler Shift principle as the basis for its measurements. The sensor transmits acoustic pulses into the surrounding water and will output Current Speed, Current Direction and Water Tem-perature where Current Speed and Direction are averaged values.

wEATHER SySTEM

This multi-sensor instrument can measure up to six of the most essential weather parameters; wind speed and direction, liquid precipitation, barometric pressure, tempera-ture and relative humidity. It is completely configurable allowing it to match any user requirements. With no moving parts and resistance to UV radiation, minimal mainte-nance is required.

MLM

MARIMATECH can supply a complete berth-ing system incorporating Mooring Load Moni-toring. This means that all data are stored in the same database and can be printed on the same reports.

poRTAbLE pILoTIng unIT (ppu)

MARIMATECHs E-Sea Fix CAT system can act as an alternative or supplementary tool to the traditional laser based solution. MARI-MATECH provide 3 different unit options and the most accurate unit, the CAT III, has a positional accuracy of 2 cm and heading ac-curacy to 0.02 of a degree.

The LMS4 system is a compact yet powerful interface unit with both processing power and storage capacity. The LMS4 units facilitate for reliable communication between, for example, lasers, large displays, quick release hooks and weather sensors. By utilizing the embedded software, the LMS4 modules can bring bespoke functionality into the system, making them independent of a master PC. The storage facility of the LMS4C modules allows them to store data (PCMCIA and normal memory) which can function as back up for the master PC, in case the PC should stop functioning, making them the perfect platform for building integrated systems.The system combines Ethernet and RS485 technology to create a robust and flexible system, with almost endless possibilities. It is a decentralized system, where the traditional master PC is changed to a thin client PC acting as a viewer, this means that the LMS4 system can continue to function even if other parts of the system are powered off or malfunctioning.
