Description:

Slingsafe lets the crane user lower the maximum lifting capacity of the crane to match the capacity of the slings and shackles being used.

The crane powers up with a 500kg load limit which is enough to safely position the crane and rig the load. The operator then identifies themselves to the Slingsafe unit with their ID card and sets the load limit to match the rated capacity of the rigging.

As the load is lifted the current load and the set limit is displayed on the Slingsafe unit. If the set limit is exceeded, then lifting is disabled.

The load limit resets to 500kg when the e-stop button is pressed.
