Crane remote control:
Many of us have already seen the industrial cranes or the crane which is used for a construction site. To control these types of cranes a wired remote or wireless remote systems are used. Wireless radio remotes are those devices that control electronic devices or heavy equipment machines such as cranes. And this control mechanism is called radio remote control.
The radio remote device generates artificial waves to communicate with the end device. The cranes are mostly used in the industrial sector and hence there is a need for radio remote devices. The cranes can be moved in specific directions like long travel, cross travel, and hoist with the help of a wireless remote. The hoist is attached to the crane which is used for loading and unloading heavy materials.
How wireless remote control for overhead crane works:
The transmitter and receiver are the two components that are used for communication. The transmitter is a wireless device that is controlled by the operator from the ground. And it is a small device that can be easily carried by one hand also. At the other end, the receiver is adjacent to the crane which has an antenna for receiving the signal.
The light which travels and vibrates at different frequencies is known as electromagnetic waves. And these electromagnetic waves have a frequency range of 10 kHz to 300 GHz which is called radio waves and microwaves.
The transmitter is a wireless device and uses radio waves technology to transmit the signal. A signal is sent to the receiver when the ground operator pushes the button of the transmitter device. The signal is a data packet that is encrypted for safety purposes so that an external entity cannot hack the signal.
When the data packet reaches the receiver, the receiver first decodes and decrypts the data. The receiver also transmits the signal for the transmitter to acknowledge that the data packet is received successfully. This communication process between the receiver and transmitter happens more than ten times in a second.
At the time of close loop communication, the transmitter device notices few things like the quality of the signal, the lost data packet, the number of errors that occurred, the number of successful transmissions, the communication gap, the signal speed, range of signal and many more. To avoid unnecessary interference and continuous change of transmission the hopping frequency technique is used by the transmitter device.
While close loop communication the overhead crane remote control systems automatically adjusts the power according to the receiver location. If the distance is minor then it takes less energy and if the distance is more the device consumes more energy. The transmission of the signal can be range from 10 meters to 200 meters. The battery used in the transmitter is so durable and it can last long to 6 months.
The radio remote control for cranes has the property of interlocked systems in a pair of buttons. If we have to move the crane in an upward direction then we have to keep pressing the up button until it reaches the endpoint. At this time the pair button i.e. down button cannot be used.
The dominance of the EOT crane remote control:
The main advantage of the radio remote device is that it works as a wireless system and hence can be operated from a safe and long distance also. The battery used in the transmitter device is durable which can easily be survived for a long time.
The transmitter device can send the signal in the range of ten meters to two hundred meters depending upon the signal quality. Even with a low battery, the transmitter device can send a good quality signal. The transmitter device saves energy according to the distance.
The crane wireless remote control uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band which can be globally used. And the device is coated in such a way that it prevents shock and corrosion. As the transmitter device works wirelessly, hence it removes the need for wired cables which results in to less expensive.
While communicating with the receiver if any error or bugs are found in the systems then the transmitter device suddenly stops working which prevents the outsider attack.
