Safer. Smarter. Better: Assistance systems for fast-erecting cranes

We are setting new standards in the tower crane world with our intelligent assistance systems. These patented innovations independently carry out semi-automated, simultaneous movements and significantly simplify work for the crane operator. This not only makes operation more precise and efficient, but also improves the overall quality of work on site.

Sway Control

The intelligent assistant supports sway-free operation by actively correcting sway, including that caused by wind and external factors. A precise IMU sensor system on the hook block enables it to detect and compensate for inclination and angular velocity. Sway Control Plus increases efficiency and safety, especially in the case of less experienced crane operators, by compensating for any lack of experience.

Vertical Line Finder

Vertical Line Finder maximises safety and convenience when lifting loads. It prevents load sway caused by diagonal pull through automatically and optimally positioning the hook above the load’s centre of gravity. The system aligns the hook vertically, prevents collisions and protects sensitive components. As the assistant takes over the exact positioning process, it also takes the strain off the crane operator, which makes precision work much easier.

Guided Hook

Guided Hook allows the load hook to be moved intuitively by hand. By tilting the hook block slightly, the operator can control the direction of travel with precision. This reduces the amount of communication needed between the crane operator and slinger, as the hook is guided directly to the load. The result: fewer errors, more safety and faster working on site.

Positioning Pilot

Positioning Pilot optimises construction site logistics with semi-automated travel movements. Stored points are approached with precision and routes travelled without sway. The IMU sensor system on the hook block assures a high degree of accuracy and safety. Up to three hook positions and two routes (moving forwards and back again, and including stops) make monotonous tasks like concreting and unloading easier. The crane operator’s workload is reduced, workflow is accelerated and safety standards are improved thanks to predefined movement routes.
