Real-time inventory monitoring for silos, storage tanks, and stockpiles — clear data for industrial sites.
Volivue helps teams see how much material is in silos, liquid storage tanks, and open stockpiles. The system connects radar, weighing, LiDAR, alarms, dashboards, and ERP/MES data for practical industrial inventory decisions.
If you're still doing this, you're losing money — and risking lives.
Manual climbing risks falls every single time.
Every silo or stockpile climb puts your team at risk of falls, confined-space incidents, and exposure to dust or hazardous atmospheres. One accident costs more than 10 monitoring systems.
Stale data lags reality by 7+ days.
Weekly or monthly counts mean every purchasing and dispatch decision is based on outdated numbers. By the time you decide to reorder, you're already behind.
Visual estimates are off by 15–30%.
Eyeballed pile estimates and tape measurements distort your books, your forecasts, and your audit trail. Without precision, every figure downstream is unreliable.
Multi-site reporting becomes a manual follow-up loop.
Distributed silos and warehouses with no unified data force operations to hunt down numbers manually each cycle. Monthly reporting becomes a war of attrition.
Top-mount retrofits demand shutdowns.
Drilling silo tops requires production shutdowns, hot-work permits, and weeks of permit headaches. For many sites, this is enough to kill the project entirely.
ERP/MES data silos waste hours weekly.
Manual re-entry between sensors and ERP/MES wastes labor hours, introduces transcription errors, and means your enterprise systems never reflect real-time inventory.
Theft, leakage, and silent losses go undetected.
Without real-time alerts on abnormal drawdowns, theft and leakage are only discovered during audits — by then the loss is months old and untraceable.
All seven pains, eliminated by one platform.
Continuous sensing. Multi-site dashboards. ERP/MES integration. Theft alarms. Zero climbing required.

Choose your sensing
technology by storage type.
Patch-Mount Silo Weighing
External sensors on lower silo support legs with AI-assisted algorithms, cloud software, and built-in 4G/WiFi/Bluetooth communication for fast silo retrofit projects.
80GHz FMCW Radar
80GHz FMCW radar level transmitter for liquid and solid level measurement in harsh process conditions, including dust, foam, steam, oil vapor, high temperature, corrosion, and agitators.
Liquid Level Meter
Ultrasonic for clean liquids and cost-sensitive sites; radar for corrosive, foamy, or hazardous media.
3D LiDAR Scanner
Real-time 3D scanning of irregular open piles. Outputs volume, mass, heatmap, and historical drawdown trends.
A unified inventory layer for operators, managers,
and enterprise systems.
Turn level, weight, and point-cloud measurements into one operating view: live inventory, alarms, dispatch variance, replenishment planning, and ERP/MES-ready data.

Request an application review
Send your storage type, drawings, material behavior, monitoring points, country, and integration target. We will return an application-fit recommendation and a practical next-step checklist.
Compare the practical trade-offs before specifying a monitoring system.
Estimate potential ROI before final system selection.
Adjust the inputs to your operation. The model gives an indicative savings range for discussion, not a final financial result or final quotation.
Actual savings depend on material value, process discipline, integration scope, measurement frequency, and site operating conditions.

on a typical 16-day path.
Application Review
Confirm material, vessel geometry, measurement target, site environment, and commercial or export constraints.
Site Review & Solution
Remote drawing review or site survey, followed by sensor selection, integration scope, BOM, and quotation.
Manufacturing & QA
Hardware configuration, software mapping, factory test, packing list, and project documentation.
Install & Commission
Guided installation by local team or Volivue engineers, calibration, data validation, and platform setup.
Training & Handover
Operator training, acceptance records, maintenance guidance, and ERP/MES or reporting handover.
Representative deployment
scenarios.
Cement silo inventory modernization
External strain-gauge monitoring is suitable when the silo is supported by legs and roof drilling is not preferred. Calibration and accuracy depend on structure, load path, installation quality, and reference weighing.
Discuss this scenario
Coal, ore, and bulk stockpile scanning
3D LiDAR is used for irregular piles, multi-zone yards, and reconciliation workflows. Final scan strategy is selected after checking pile geometry, dust, mounting position, traffic routes, and data refresh requirements.
Discuss this scenario
Chemical tank level monitoring
Radar level monitoring can support chemical tanks where non-contact measurement and stable reporting are required. Final configuration depends on the exact model, medium, temperature, wiring, and installation method.
