​

​

Inverter Units – (Variable speed drive)

We can upgrade single speed hoist, cross travel and long travel motions to give smooth variable speed control. 

Other benefits include reduced load sway and reduced brake wear and possible increased life span to wheels and motor gear boxes.

​

Anti- collision Device – (collision avoidance systems)

We offer various types of collision avoidance systems, including infrared, laser and radio signal technology. 

Each system allows cranes to be set at a specific distance apart and stops them coming within the set parameters.

​

Power Supply Systems

We can supply and upgrade power supply systems.  These include 4 bar insulated conductor systems up to 200 amp, enclosed conductor system, motorised and spring operated cable reeling drum and cable festoon systems.

​

Travel Limit Devices

We can offer limit devices to hoist motion, cross travel motion and long travel motions of the crane. 

This can be a slow down limit or dead stop type limit.

Where required we can fit zone limiting devices to keep the crane from travelling into a specific area of the workshop,
