The Challenge

Pressurized tanks hidden in a fast-moving material stream.

Amerigo processes mixed ferrous scrap through a pre-shredder before it reaches the main shredder.

Compressed gas cylinders and propane tanks can enter undetected, causing explosions, equipment damage, safety hazards, and costly shutdowns.

The Solution

Always-on vision at the point where intervention matters.

High-resolution cameras and an on-site intelligence hub monitor the post pre-shredder conveyor and detect hazardous items in real time.

Tablet alerts give operators enough time to stop the belt and remove risks without relying on the cloud.

The Results

Detection of hazards. Safer processing. Better visibility.

Detection of hazards helps Amerigo prevent explosions, protect equipment, avoid downtime, and create a safer process for operators.
