More metric tons per hour. Shorter turnaround times.

Cranium for Rotary Cranes

Cranium supports your Rotary Cranes with intelligent real-time detection and automated assistance features. This allows you to move more metric tons per hour, reduce downtime, and ensure smooth operation even under the most demanding conditions.

When it comes to bulk cargo handling, every metric ton counts

Whether it’s gravel, coal, ore, scrap metal, or grain: Every stoppage extends downtime and drives up costs.

Complex movements require intelligent control systems. With Cartesian control, the crane operator moves the load logically through space and does not have to control the crane’s individual joints.

Four Reasons Why Your Rotary Cranes Perform Better

The result: higher cargo throughput and a port operation that leads the competition.

Robust and future-proof

Less wear and tear, lower costs per metric ton, and a system that makes your Rotary Cranes ready for the future.

Greater Control in Operations

Restricted zones and speeds can be adjusted flexibly, and Sway Damping stabilizes the crane’s movements.

Higher throughput

More metric tons per hour. Your handling capacity increases without the need for additional staff.

Predictable Processes

Precise assistance functions stabilize processes and reduce the time ships and trains spend in port.

Here’s what Cranium offers for your Rotary Cranes

Cartesian control
Travel paths result from superimposed movements for precise operation.
Fixed Lift Position
The control system maintains a defined height regardless of the boom position.
Zones and Obstacles
Restricted zones and speeds can be adjusted flexibly.
Precise Positioning
The gripper can be automatically positioned over the hopper from any position.
Pendulum damping
It automatically reduces load vibrations and ensures stable crane movements. A camera is suitable for measurement feedback on the slewing crane.
