It allows your crane to be operated from a distant control room away from the crane operating area, and without a direct line of sight to the crane.

“When you have people with experience from a similar project, you don’t need to explain the process to them. They know.”
Esa Prokkola, Project Manager
Alaskan Copper & Brass Co. was moving a large part of its operation from Seattle and Renton to a facility in Kent, Washington. The company needed new lifting equipment and also wanted to relocate some older cranes at the Rention facility, not purchased from Konecranes.
