BOOM ANTI COLLISION SYSTEM

To avoid collisions between the crane boom and vessel superstructure, our laser scanners can be installed in such a way that horizontal surveillance fields are created under the boom. If any structures are detected within the surveillance fields during the crane’s gantry drive, a warning message with an alarm signal or, in emergency cases, an automatic stop will be generated. The laser scanner provides a quantity of parallel available field sets such that, with the same scanner, next-to-boom collision prevention as well as crane-to-crane collision prevention can be provided.

Our sophisticated solutions, in combination with the laser scanner, provide high diagnostic coverage of the laser scanner functions and scanning field position at any given time. The system is very compact, installation in the crane’s structure is easy and modular, and only one device is used to cover one full side. Maintenance is also minimum or non-existent.
