Mining Gate and Weighbridge CCTV Reference Layouts
This page is about showing the camera jobs more clearly. Many mining projects understand the theory but still struggle with layout: how many views belong at the lane, where the weighbridge line view should sit, when the office or guardhouse door matters more than another wide yard camera, and where remote-road thermal belongs.

Reference Layouts
Simple rule
Separate the gate design into at least three jobs: identity or evidence view, lane or vehicle context view, and weighbridge or transaction-line view. If there is a remote-road detection problem, treat that as a fourth job rather than asking one wide camera to do everything.
Reference layout A: single-lane gate and weighbridge
Reference layout B: gate, office check-in, and remote-road thermal
Reference layout C: dual-lane inbound and outbound gate
Reference layout D: remote gate with solar or bridge backhaul
Recommended gate and weighbridge combinations
Hikvision single-lane gate
- Main evidence view: DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL
- Second view: wider lane-context fixed camera
- Best for: one gate, one office or guardhouse, and a practical Hikvision recorder path
AXIS single-lane gate
Hikvision remote gate with thermal
- Remote detection: DS-2TD2637T-10/QY
- Keep one fixed verification view at the actual gate lane
- Best for: remote-road mining branches where the real risk is the approach before the gate
Weighbridge line package logic
- One fixed line view on the actual bridge stop position
- One separate wider context view for trailer and lane interaction
- Add office or transaction-window view if the weighbridge workflow actually needs it
What each layout still needs checked
| Check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Exact stopping point and traffic flow | Small lane changes can ruin framing. |
| Night lighting and glare | Headlights and reflective surfaces often change the practical result. |
| Remote-road distance | Decides whether fixed, thermal, or both make sense. |
| Cabinet and backhaul path | The best lane layout still fails if the remote cabinet or bridge path is weak. |
