ATV-AntiSway

Effortless and stable load control

GH SOLUTION: ATV+AntiSway

• Reduction of load swaying, through a simple solution: software integrated in the crane variable speed drives.
• Reduces swaying due to acceleration and braking.
• Effective for the movement of the trolley and the bridge.
• Easy to set up and use. No subsequent adjustments required.
• Easy retrofitting to existing cranes by loading the firmware onto the variable speed drives.

ADVANTAGES

Greater speed + Greater precision = Increased Productivity and Safety.

Without complicating things for the operator: the system reduces the swaying automatically.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Inputs
   • Operator’s commands for bridge and/or trolley movement (accelerate/decelerate).
   • Trolley and crane speeds.
2. Algorithm integrated in the firmware of the variable speed drives that control the trolley and bridge motors. The algorithm determines the optimal acceleration and deceleration ramps to reduce swaying.
3. Each drive controls the movements independently.
4. Return to point 1.
