Magnetek IMPULSE Series 5 · Built-in sway control

Anti-collision and sway-control systems using Magnetek IMPULSE G+/VG+ Series 5 drives to improve crane and load motion.

Magnetek IMPULSE G+/VG+ Series 5 variable-frequency drive for crane motion controlIntelligent motion control

Overview

Anti-collision and anti-sway systems

Magnetek IMPULSE G+/VG+ Series 5 drives include sway control to reduce load oscillation during travel. The platform also supports functions such as synchronization, travel limits, safety checks and overload protection, subject to equipment configuration.

Anti-collision systems are specified separately around crane count, interference zones, travel paths, sensors and required control logic. No control function replaces operating procedures, training or equipment maintenance.

Answers for your project

Frequently asked questions

Does the system prevent every accident by itself?

No. It is a support element that must be integrated with design, controls, maintenance, training and safety procedures.

Can it be installed on existing equipment?

Existing equipment can be evaluated after reviewing controls, sensors, travel paths and operating conditions.
