NoPileups

NoPileups is a powerful tunnel monitoring solution that empowers car wash owners with anti-collision technology. This added security allows for closer loading and less spacing between cars so your wash can maximize throughput. This peace of mind allows your loader to be brave, so they can load cars more closely and wash faster than ever before. Customers receive a better experience thanks to the increased speed and safety of this system.

With NoPileups, you can:

    • Wash more cars. NoPileups provides peace of mind so your crew can feel more confident about loading vehicles at optimum levels, allowing you to wash more cars.
    • Improve your reputation and customer satisfaction. NoPileups prevents reputation-killing collisions and gives customers peace of mind. They’ll also appreciate the faster service your wash will be able to provide by preventing downtime and increasing tunnel capacity.
    • Enhance tunnel performance. Risk identification is an important part of accident prevention. NoPileups reporting helps you find and fix problem areas in your tunnel. Our team also monitors your system for potential issues within your tunnel.
    • Reduce downtime. Every collision in your tunnel stops production and increases wait times. NoPileups reduces those collisions and allows you to quickly address and fix any collision threats.
    • Avoid damage costs. While driver-error is often the cause of in-tunnel collisions, car washes often take the burden of the damage claims. In addition to preventing collisions, NoPileups also gives you video evidence to clear you from liability when a collision does occur.
    • Decrease labor costs and turnover. Employees are often assigned to tunnel lookout and receive the blame when they’re unable to prevent an accident. They also often take the brunt of angry customer complaints. That stress can lower morale and send good employees elsewhere.

In Tunnel Collision Prevention

While most anti-collision systems use loop pads or other sensors to determine a vehicle’s location, NoPileups uses video and advanced computer technology to track where the vehicle actually is. NoPileups protects cars across the entire length of the tunnel. It automatically stops the conveyor when a collision threat is detected and takes a 15-20 second video so you can identify the cause of an issue. 

Smart Exit

With Smart Exit, NoPileups extends beyond the end of the conveyor, monitoring 10-15 feet beyond traditional tunnel exit collision avoidance systems. Smart Exit detects when vehicles stopped at the end of the conveyor create a collision threat, automatically stopping the conveyor to prevent the collision and restarting it when the situation clears. Relying on NoPileups’ computer vision rather than loops or photo eye sensors, it prevents the false positives that often plague other systems. 

Smart Exit is perfect for tunnels with tight egresses onto busy roads, belt conveyors, high-volume tunnels and full-service tunnels where cars must wait for aftercare services.

Reporting

Delivered to your inbox every Wednesday, these reports provide new insights about your wash so you can optimize your operational efficiency. Reporting is included at no additional cost with an active NoPileups Support Agreement.

  • Compare productivity indicators for multiple locations so you can identify and duplicate efficiencies
  • See if your standards for vehicle spacing are being followed
  • Identify and address what causes stops so you can keep your conveyor running
  • Discover which locations have the most collisions prevented to better understand how to fix common issues
  • Know when Smart Exit is stopping vehicles at the end of the tunnel so you can address bottlenecks
  • Have reports sent to key team members with only the locations that are relevant to them
