Drives
VFDs for hoist/CT/LT, S-curve accel/decl, brake control, encoder or sensorless vector.
Interfaces
Pendant, radio remote (dual TX), cabin console, inching & creep modes.
Safety
STO, overload limiter, limit switches, collision avoidance, emergency stop chain.
Diagnostics
HMI, fault logs, data logging, Modbus/Profinet/CanOpen (as requested).
Smooth, Safe, Repeatable Motion
- Precision: vector control with S-curve profiles minimizes sway and improves inching.
- Safety first: dual-channel e-stop/limits and STO for hoist per IEC 61800-5-2 practices.
- Operator comfort: radio with feedback, pendant ergonomics, cabin console layouts.
- Maintainability: labeled wiring, spare I/O, diagnostics, remote assist options.
