Without timely detection and intervention, these issues can lead to significant damage. This article describes how Mactwin detects and combats spontaneous combustion and fires at an early stage.<\/h4>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">Heating occurs when materials start to smoulder due to friction and heat build-up. If this process is not stopped in time, it can develop into a fire.<\/p>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"22\" data-lineheight=\"30.8px\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Rapid detection<\/h3>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">To prevent overheating, it is important that flammable materials are stored for as short a time as possible. However, despite preventive measures, it is not always possible to fully prevent spontaneous combustion. Every year, there are dozens of uncontrollable heating incidents where even the fire brigade is unable to quickly extinguish these types of fires, which start as a swelter.<\/p>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"22\" data-lineheight=\"30.8px\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Smoldering prevention solution<\/h3>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">Mactwin&#8217;s solution combines reliable monitoring with fast response. Thermal imaging cameras detect both heating and flames and immediately sound an alarm in the event of undesirable temperature increases.<\/p>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"22\" data-lineheight=\"30.8px\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Fixed cameras<\/h3>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">Mactwin deliberately opts for fixed thermal imaging cameras that continuously monitor the same area. This is in contrast to rotatable cameras, which only periodically scan an area. Since spontaneous combustion can quickly develop into a fire, the use of rotating cameras poses an unacceptable risk. By placing multiple fixed cameras from different positions, constant and reliable monitoring is ensured.<\/p>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"22\" data-lineheight=\"30.8px\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Automatic extinguishing<\/h3>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">When heating is detected, the camera automatically sends an extinguishing monitor to the correct position to effectively extinguish the heating. This prevents even a flash fire from developing. This automatic extinguishing function is the only effective way to intervene quickly and adequately.<\/p>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">Preventing heating and fire requires more than just preventive measures. Fast and reliable detection, combined with automatic extinguishing systems, is essential to prevent major damage.<\/p>\n<p data-fusion-font=\"true\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:5px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:5px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:5px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:5px;--awb-overflow:hidden;--awb-padding-top:47px;--awb-margin-bottom:29px;--awb-background-color:var(--awb-color1);--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1216.8px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:0px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><h3 style=\"color: #747474; font-size: 18px;\" data-fusion-font=\"true\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Would you like to know more?
