CMS Cavity Monitoring System

Optech's Cavity Monitoring System (CMS) revolutionizes the surveying of subterranean cavities. Custom designed for subterranean scanning, the CMS delivers a fast, accurate 3D surveying solution in a configuration that meets the challenges of working underground - a compact unit, wireless operation, sealed optics and specialized accessories.

The CMS collects thousands of accurately located measurements per minute. These measurements can be used to determine stope volume, stope dilution, and sloughing/backfill volumes, and to create detailed drawings. Universally adopted data formats ensure that CMS data can be used in any software workflow.

Optech's CMS developed in partnership with world-leading mining organizations, pioneered laser-based autoscanning for mining in the 1980's. With over 100 systems deployed globally, the CMS continues to provide fast, reliable and efficient scanning of underground cavities.

Optech's CMS is the ideal scanning solution for dangerous and inaccessible cavities. With wireless control using the included handheld computer and an extendable boom system, the CMS can go deeper and farther than other scanning solutions, all while maintaining operator safety. The unit is fully programmable, allowing the user to define scan parameters including elevation step, azimuth step and scan limits.

CMS provides efficient and accurate measurements of voids and cavities in underground mines.  It can be inserted through boreholes as narrow as 25 cm (10 inches).
