The Top 5 Benefits of Wireless Crane Control

The wireless trend has transformed a range of industries, and the construction field is one of them.

If you are responsible for moving materials around job sites or warehouses, then now may be the perfect time to make the transition to wireless crane control. This technology controlled by radio is increasingly capturing the attention of companies interested in upgrading their cranes to boost their productivity.

Here’s a rundown on the top five benefits of wireless and remote control for cranes.

 

1. Wireless Crane Controller Can Improve Productivity

Wireless controls offer the benefit of having multi-frequency capabilities.

This is important because it allows you to wirelessly operate several cranes simultaneously and not worry about dealing with radio interference.

2. Remote Control for Cranes Offers Greater Precision

As a crane operator, sometimes you need to move closer to a crane to achieve greater precision. Rather than having to stay in the cab of the crane, you can draw closer to the crane with the help of wireless crane control. 

For instance, let’s say that you need to maneuver loads through a tight space. Or, maybe you need to set a load onto a pylon or bolt. Wireless crane control can make this possible.

3. A Wireless Crane Controller Can Increase Safety

With wired crane controls, you have to move in the crane’s direction along the floor, and your speed must match the crane’s. This boosts your chances of fall and trip accidents.

However, with a wireless controller, following the load’s path is not necessary. As a result, wireless control makes crane operation safer overall.

In addition, let’s say that you need to move farther away from your crane to remain safer at the job site. For instance, perhaps your load contains hazardous materials, or it is very hot. Wireless controls allow you to stay back while still getting the job done accurately easily. 

4. A Wireless Controller Offers Better Visibility

With wireless controls, you can easily move around your job site or the floor to get a clear view of your crane. Thus, you can load without having to rely on a spotter. 

This makes wireless controls handy during and before crane operation.

5. Remote Radio Crane Control Is More Convenient

With wireless controls, you don’t have to deal with tangled cables. This can help with preventing problems for the operator and the load.
