Liebherr introduces new control for tower cranes

17 Apr 15 Liebherr has upgraded the controller for its tower cranes to allow for easier adjustment and meet forthcoming new safety standards.

The new Litronic controller can be adjusted individually to the needs of various uses. It also satisfies the requirements of an impending new safety standard.

The Litronic control system monitors, controls and coordinates all the main functions of Liebherr top-slewing cranes. It incorporates a load moment limiting system, a working range limiting system, machine data evaluation and an interface for an anti-collision system.

The system has been designed to be easy to use for the crane driver and was developed with feedback from users. The electronic monitor system enables drivers to adjust the settings to their personal working methods and adjust the speeds of all drive units as required. Drivers can also select various modes for the slewing, hoisting and trolley travel gear.
