High Speed Digital Video Camera Systems
for Blasters

MREL is the world's leading supplier of high speed digital video camera
systems which have been configured for blasters and integrated with MREL's
Blaster's MAS Motion Analysis Software. These Blaster's camera systems are used
to record the progression of blasting in slow motion detail and to allow the
quantitative measurement of the performance of blasts.
MREL integrates high speed digital video cameras into rugged, portable systems
specifically for blasters. These integrated camera systems bridge the gap that
has historically existed between the economy and resolution of high speed film
cameras, and the convenience of high speed video cameras.
High speed film cameras have been used by blasters to assist in optimizing
blasting results for many years. With MREL Blaster's cameras, blasters can now
view the blasting results in slow motion detail immediately after blasting and
analyze blasts quantitatively on a computer. This is impossible with high speed
film cameras.
The information that may be obtained from the Blaster's high speed digital video
camera systems include:
The location of the first rock movement and the shape of the face movement.
The firing sequence of the blast.
The occurrence of gas venting at the face.
The degree of confinement due to stemming.
The occurrence and location of misfires.
The nature of the muck-pile formation.
The onset time for rock movement, both at the face and at the top of the
bench.
The velocity and direction of rock and flyrock travel from the face and the
top of the bench.
The hole venting and stemming ejection velocities.
The actual hole/deck delay times.
The casting range of the rock.
Technical Support from Explosives and Blasting Professionals/Researchers.
All this with models to suit any budget.
