Three new elements --Hook Centering, Snag Prevention and Active Sway Control -- have been added to the Smart Features for the SMARTON Cranes.
This boost in intelligence leads to greater safety, increased productivity and a reduction in repairs and downtime by allowing operators to achieve even faster load handling with less risk of damage to the load, crane and surrounding area.
- Hook Centering: automatically eliminates side pull situations and load swing caused by side pull
- Snag Prevention: constantly monitors the rope angle and slows down the movement of the bridge if the rope reaches a pre-set angle, activating the mechanical brakes to a full stop if a more extreme rope angle occurs
- Active Sway Control: stabilizes load movements in trolley traverse and/or bridge travel directions
