Humanitarian Mine Clearence

Demining for humanitarian purposes is one of the main fields of activity of DETOTEKNİK. For this purpose, techniques such as mechanical clearance and the use of mine-sweeping dogs are applied along with manual methods. The clearance methods used may vary depending on the terrain, vegetation, soil characteristics and the type of mines or unexploded ordnance. However, the basic principles are maintained in all cases.

DETOTEKNİK ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY LOST MINE DETECTION

Since it is predicted that lost mines in DETOTEKNİK projects will have a frequency range between 1 GHz and 2 GHz, GPR as a lost mine search technique utilizes the following advantages

High Resolution: The high frequency range provides higher resolution, enabling clearer detection of objects up to 56 mm in diameter.
High Sensitivity: Higher frequencies increase the ability to detect smaller objects, making it more likely that lost mines will be found.
Environmental Adaptability: Higher frequencies increase environmental adaptability, enabling better performance in harsh environmental conditions.
Antenna Optimization: Depending on the payload capacity of the drone, the antenna type and size should be optimized. A small and lightweight antenna creates less load on the drone, while antenna size and frequency range directly affect resolution and penetration depth.

MINE DETECTION DOG (MDD) AND MECHANICAL MINE CLEARANCE EQUIPMENT (MMCE) SUPPORT

DETOTEKNİK The implementation stages of the mechanical demining activity are as follows:

Manual Search and Clearance: The first phase in which demining personnel detect and clear mines using detectors and skewers.
Control with MDDs: Mine-sniffing dogs are used to check cleared areas after manual search and clearance activities. Thanks to their sense of smell, MDDs are highly effective in detecting mines and other explosive materials.
Mechanical Clearance and Quality Control: The mined areas are cleared using mechanical demining equipment (MMCE). At this stage, various methods are used to control the quality of the clearance process.
Final Control: A final check is carried out by manual search and clearance teams and mine-sweeping dogs to remove remaining mines and other explosive materials. Screening equipment is also used at this stage, if available.

In the clearance of mines remaining after mechanical clearance, the shank and detector search teams and the MDD teams work in coordination. This coordination increases the effectiveness and safety of demining operations.

MDDs and MMCE play an important role at every stage of demining operations. While MDDs are used to detect mines and other explosive materials and control cleared areas, the MMCE ensures the rapid and effective clearance of mined areas. With these support elements, demining operations can be completed in less time and with greater safety.
