PT Pindo Deli Pulp & Paper Mills
Modernization of the traveling axis positioning system of two bridge cranes in an automated paper roll warehouse operated by the biggest Indonesian paper producer. Travel profiles were optimized by eliminating oscillations as well as creeping speeds. The ARATEC® Positioning Solution System and the FLP6000ASC Advanced Skew Control system were installed. No modifications to existing hardware, such as SPS, safety-related technology or motors, were required. New, cutting-edge laser distance meters were installed in combination with PSI Technics' TPCC® Thermo Protection Cooling Cases to prevent the sensors from overheating in the summer months.

The ARATEC's FLP6000AOC software reduces mast oscillations – even of highly dynamic stacker cranes – to a minimum. The test setup shows that the ARATEC Positioning Solution System with enabled FLP6000AOC compensates for mast oscillations in near-real time, even when the oscillations are caused by external disturbances.
