Case of success
Ibernex Éxito
solve the vehicles access control for Ibérica de Sales
Ibérica de Sales is a company located in Remolinos
(Zaragoza). Its main activity is the extraction of salt from
an underground mine, further processing and marketing.
As result of its activities, a constant traffic of vehicles that
Access the mine through one of their mouths (own
vehicles that are responsible to transport the salt, nonbusiness vehicles and vehicles related to the companies
that provide maintenance services).
The particularity of the functionality of the company, require having a solution that will require some
assumptions:

The vehicles don’t have to stop to identify in the Access and must bear a large flow of traffic.
The vehicle registration process in the system has to be easy and fast.
For specific cases, it should be possible to enable remote access upon vehicle identification
seeking access.
It must be possible to enable the passage from the hut next to the access.
It has to allow in a future the vehicle location in a circuit that runs the mine.
Inability to use a license plate reader. The salt dust in suspension prevents proper shooting
due to micro sparkles that this generates.
The vehicle access system of Ibernex provides an effective and fully scalable solution, allowing to
control the vehicles access and locating vehicles that are inside the mine, meeting the needs of the
company.
The vehicle identification is performed by the
installation of UHF antennas in the beginning of
the mine. One is used to identify the vehicles
entering in the mine and the other one for
identifying when they leave the mine. These
antennas detect type sticker tags, without
power, placed on the windshield of vehicles.
Using this type of tag makes system
maintenance is practically zero, without
needing that the batteries were changed. The
vehicles outside the company don’t need return
the tag because its low cost.

To control the Access of vehicles, two trade barriers have been installed.
These barriers incorporate a magnetic loop and a photocell to control the
passage of vehicles and avoid an unauthorized access. Each of the barriers
has associated a traffic light indicating the possibility of passage.
From the checkpoint at the entrance, through a switch is allowed to have
Access as long as necessary, and prevent the Access permanently.
It incorporates mechanisms for remote opening prior identification of the
vehicle/personnel that want to Access. For this, two anti-vandal intercoms
have been installed connected to an analog line of a PBX at different
heights, for using from tourism or a truck. The intercom incorporates a
RFID card reader, which can be used as an alternative mechanism for
identification in the access control system.
To manage the information related to the system, visits and vehicles
control software is installed. This software allows in real time, to control
the visit and vehicles Access, and the access to list of vehicles at one point
is inside the mine.
As already mentioned, the identification system used allows the location of the
vehicles controlling the passage for a point of the circuit in the mine. In the future,
this functionality is intended to be used to control the permanence of vehicles on the circuit,
generating alerts (calls to mobile, email, SMS…) otherwise.
Thanks to the adaptability of our system, Ibérica de Sales was able to have a solution that fits your
needs, and it noted for its robustness and optimal result. Ibernex covers the large needs and
expectations.
