Manage your tunnel with business intelligence. Individual and tailored on your requirements. With the support of state-of-the-art data technology. With a solution from the Cloud. With PROCON II, the real-time data management system of Maidl Tunnelconsultants.
PROCON II is a software for the technical controlling of mechanized tunnel drives. The professional, cloud-based management system acquires, analyses and visualizes all available processes data and enables you to evaluate real-time data from everywhere. It stores your project and all relevant data for future use. The transfer of all processes in real-time enables you to control the complete project and maximize the productivity and efficiency of the shield machine
PROCON II uses all advantages of cloud computing. Machine and monitoring data are acquired digitally and transferred to the cloud or to your local data warehouse in real-time. Upon request, MTC will also host your data so you can reduce your IT budget and maintenance effort. The highest security standards are guaranteed.
PROCON II utilizes two decades of experience in mechanized tunneling. Our experience with more than 200 tunneling projects with various boundary conditions, machine types and driving teams is integrated within PROCON II. Actions, reactions and interactions are investigated using analytical algorithms in real-time. The foundation of this unaltered raw data combined with our scientifically recognized and practicable expert knowledge.
PROCON II is based on the latest software technology. Thus, your vast process data are transformed into visual information. Take advantage of the affordable possibilities of geographical information systems (GIS) and link them to your interactive charts. With the generic chart and dashboard configurator, you can visualize all of the relevant information tailored to your specific needs and follow your project live with your web browser.
PROCON II employs professional knowledge management. Re-invent the data analysis in your project! Simultaneous access to all the results of your analyses will enable you to make fast and fact-based decisions. You will benefit from process analyses that are tailored to your project. Using back analysis from successfully managed projects, you will even learn from past mistakes.
PROCON II supplies the interface to online back office support. Maidl Tunnelconsultants supports you throughout the project and advises you on important technical and contractual decisions. We offer a complete solution - from tailored configuration to data hosting - from a single supplier. We either cover the complete project or merely troubleshoot in critical situations.
Apply PROCON II in your project and optimize your process with respect to cost and time effort.
Simple application of variance comparison.
All PROCON II data sources (machine, shift, tool, process data, etc.) are combined in the dashboard.
Individual, automated reports tailored on the customer for the documentation of the tunneling process.
The analysis of downtimes and the influencing parameters in the dashboard optimizes downtimes. Insights to tool changes in the context of the existing ground parameters shortens intervention intervals.
The monitoring is accessible from everywhere with the secured login.
Customer tailored dashboards show required data precisely in context of the requirements.
Data is linked via time, location and object, e.g. in a geographical information environment.
PROCON II includes many different modules designed for your specific requirements. You can purchase only those modules you require to fulfill your needs. In the following the individual modules are presented with links to their corresponding sites.
All data from the PROCON II data warehouse can be visualized by means of interactive and customizable charts. These charts can be directly zoomed, adjusted and arranged on specially developed dashboards in the browser. These dashboards gather information of specific topics and are used to display several sources of data in a common reference system for immediate comparability. In this context, your data is linked on dashboards with maps of a geographic information system as well as a digital ground models in a location or time reference system.
An interactive module for shift protocols extends the list of
optional features of PROCON. Extracting periods of advance, ring
building and standstill automatically from the machine data,
these time intervals are displayed using a Gantt chart
visualization for each shift.
Shift reporting represents
an essential element of the documentation of a tunneling project.
All actions are documented and can be evaluated as well as
exported.
The management of cutter tools is very important especially when excavating in hard rock. The wear of the individual cutter tools must be documented to prevent the tunneling machine from being damaged due to worn-out tools. In Procon II, the individual tools can be registered and maintained. Data can be entered based on interventions which represents an event when the cutter tools are checked for their current wear and changed, if required. Types of cutting tools like disks, scrapers and buckets are distinguished in the system and can be managed in respective user interfaces.
In an integrated additional database, monitoring data is stored that is retrieved from arbitrary instruments registered in the PROCON II data warehouse. Here, an instrument consists of a number of data series which contain the individual data. For each instrument the position and its assignment to a specific class of instrument (e.g. extensometers or leveling points) is captured. The data series contain additional information regarding their assignment to a monitoring section and their warning and alarm levels.
The documentation of the tunneling process is essential due to many aspects. Therefore, Procon II offers custom-designed machine data reports, intervention reports and shift protocols as printable reports to document the progress. Upon setup of the project, MTC considers the project-specific requirements and prepares automatically updating report templates via the web interface. Reporting periods and various filter functions can be arbitrarily selected.
The advanced analysis is a category for more sophisticated dashboards that are accessible for selected users of the system. It is reserved for complex topics, or deeper analyses of certain processes.
Segment Tracking describes the consistent tracking of produced segments throughout their life cycle. This process includes the production of the segments, their temporary storage on the construction site, their installation as part of a tunnel ring and their health status both during construction and operation of the tunnel. The segments are tracked by applying labels with codes on each segment.
In many cases, you may want to add location-based and process-related additional information. These can be (ranges of) target values for operational parameters such as the support pressures. But also external measurements and evaluations such as ground water levels, information on site logistics, or ground conditions can be easily acquired on a by-ring basis.
Damage of lining segments is not only possible during production or in the storage, but also during transport and installation in the tunnel. It is crucial for quality control to securely document all damages and to track repair works.
BIM can be employed at an early stage of the tunnel project and used already to advantage in the design and construction phases. The key components of these models can be linked to each other by means of a common location and time reference framework.
Often you are on the move and you have no possibilities to monitor the current status of the project at a computer. Therefore, PROCON II offers a mobile version which can access customized dashboards via smartphone or tablet to monitor different aspects of the project to quickly react in case of problems.
