LaseMF-4-ESD - Empty Space Detection for STS-cranes
Empty Space Detection / Module of Multifunctional System LaseMF-4
Before and during the deposit of a container, the function module measures whether the space on the chassis is empty.
The Application
LaseMF-4-ESD is part of the LaseMF-4. LaseMF-4 is a modular, multifunctional laser measurement system based on multilayer laser scanners for ship-to-shore cranes. The MF-4 offers several function modules that can be selected separately or combined as required by the customer. The selected function modules determine the number and positioning of the laser scanners.
Additional LaseMF-4 modules to choose from:
LaseMF-4-TPS - Truck Positioning System
The function module measures the position of the chassis and the container on the chassis. It provides feedback to the truck driver via digital displays of the distance between the chassis centre/container centre and the crane’s centre. The function increases the productivity of the crane.
LaseMF-4-CPD - Cabin Position Detection
During the container deposit process to the chassis, the function module checks whether the truck’s cabin is outside the operation area of the spreader and the container, to prevent that the container will be deposited onto the cabin.
LaseMF-4-GCP-3D - Gantry Collision Prevention-3D
The function module observes the area in front of the crane and detects whether objects are in the driving path. The function includes crane-to-crane collision prevention. The 3D-Multilayer Laser Scanner can detect objects lying on the
ground.
LaseMF-4-TMD- Truck Movement Detection
During the loading and unloading process, the function module detects when the truck is moving.
The number of laser scanners and digital displays required depends on the number of lanes in the portal and backreach area, the distance between the lanes, and the height of the portal girder. The system supports dual-cycle operation. Two trucks can be positioned at the same time.
THE BENEFITS
