FLP6000ASC Skew Control Software

The FLP6000ASC (ASC = Advanced Skew Control) add-on software for the ARATEC Positioning Solution System is an extremely accurate positioning solution that eliminates skew of long-span bridge cranes.

Krane, Krananlagen, Brückenkran, Crane Systems, Bridge Crane, Advanced Skew Control, Gleichlaufregelung, ARATEC
The ARATEC-add-on FLP6000ASC controls logistics vehicles by using two independent drives for bridge cranes and, in part, for stacker cranes (lifting table).

FLP6000ASC comprises skew control as well as an optional trolley and hoist control. The linear control features lessen wear and dampen load vibrations, preventing or reducing undesired oscillations to a minimum.

Increased productivity of long-span bridge cranes

Skew caused by friction or the slipping of a single axis, uneven loads, load changes or wear of drive wheel rails increases the machine's rate of wear.

OPTIONAL ADD-ON FOR THE ARATEC POSITIONING SOLUTION SYSTEM

 

Ben Schmidgall, Chief Automation Engineer, Hawkeye Pedershaab, Hanson Pipe & Precast HEIDELBERG CEMENT Group:

"The PSI Technics team members are all highly professional and their expertise in every phase of the implementation: pre-sale planning, pre-installation site audit, installation and commissioning and post-sale service allowed the conversion to occur seamlessly. The PSI Technics solution offered many advanced improvements from the old system: Off-the-shelf lasers; cooling options to extend the life of the lasers; Ethernet-based communication for remote assistance; data logging, graphing, and backup features."

 


Bridge Crane Alignment - FLP6000ASC can adjust the skewing of bridge cranes prior to crane operation or while the crane is en route to its destination.
Bridge Crane Alignment

The FLP6000ASC can adjust the skewing of bridge cranes prior to crane operation or while the crane is en route to its destination. For particular applications, deliberate skewing can be introduced.

Example: A bridge crane lowers steel plates onto a production line that is positioned diagonally to the crane path. In this case, skewing can be introduced to ensure that the crane is moving parallel to the production line and lowers the plates at the correct angle. This can be defined in the vehicle‘s motion path profile.

The FLP6000ASC add-on for the ARATEC Positioning Solution System ensures accurate positioning in the shortest possible time, simultaneously reducing facility wear, because it not only guarantees a synchronized motor operation but also a straight, consistent movement of the bridge.

The axis retains the proper adjustment during all stages of movement. The FLP6000ASC can even eliminate manually introduced skewing by straightening the bridge.

AFTER (Using the ARATEC Positioning Solution System)

Improved solution for new and existing installations:
The positioning system ARATEC is an ideal replacement for existing PLC- or drive-based applications and fine-tunes skew control in industrial facilities.

Aside from the FLP6000ASC, the complete system configuration includes two distance meters that are used as absolute measuring systems and are installed on each crane axis. The FLP6000ASC controls the independent motor and gear components of each axis. The FLP6000ASC thus enables the synchronized operation of both absolute encoders, eliminating accidental sampling-related skewing.

FLP6000AOC – Advanced Oscillation Control

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.
