IP CCTV looks after car parts

Faurecia’s new plant is located in a high-technology industrial park in San Luis Potosi, and manufactures seats and other automotive components for many of the world’s top car makers.

The IP CCTV system was designed and installed by IndigoVision’s local partner Multielectron SA de CV, and consists of both PTZ dome and fixed cameras covering the exterior of the plant as well the general manufacturing areas inside.

Arturo Gutierrez, Faurecia’s HSE coordinator, said providing local authorities and police with high-quality evidential video exported from the system following an incident was an important requirement.

CCTV monitoring workstations running ‘Control Center’, IndigoVision’s IP video and alarm management software, are used throughout the plant to view live and recorded video from the cameras.

Distributed system
The distributed nature of the system means that any component (camera, workstation, etc) can be located anywhere on the network. The system is thus very scalable, allowing additional cameras or workstations to be easily and cost-effectively added in the future.

This flexibility has allowed Faurecia to install CCTV workstations not only for the security team in the main control room but also for the plant manager, HR department and the maintenance team.

The video is recorded continuously at 4CIF, 30fs for 15 days using an IndigoVision Windows Network Video Recorder server with 1.5TB of storage and NAS backup, all located in the control room. With the correct access permissions any ‘Control Center’ workstation in the plant can view and analyse recorded video from the NVR.
