What is radio remote control?
The wireless radio remote generates artificial radio waves to manage the electronic or heavy machines. This process is known as radio remote control. The wireless devices use radio waves technology for communication with the end devices. Many electronic devices work wireless such as TV(Television), AC(Air conditioner), remote car, industrial machines, etc. In the construction site or industrial field radio remote devices are used to control the machines wirelessly.
There are majorly two types of cranes like static and mobile cranes. The mobile crane is a crane that can be located from one place to another. While a static crane cannot move from one location once it is fixed. The wireless crane remote control device can move the crane in different directions like long travel, cross travel, and hoist. The hoist is part of the crane which is used for moving the heavy loads in an upward and downward direction.
Working principle of radio remote control for EOT cranes:
For wireless communication, the radio remote control device uses the two units such as transmitter and receiver. The transmitter is operated by the operator from the ground floor and it is a handy device that is easy to manage. The receiver is attached to the crane at the other end.
The transmitter sends the signal whenever the operator presses the button on the transmitter device. The data packet sends in an encrypted form by the transmitter for security and safety purposes. After receiving the signal the receiver first decodes the data and converts it into the readable format. After receiving the signal the receiver also transmits the feedback signal.
The transmitter device can send the signal from the range of 10 meters to 200 meters and communication happens more than ten times in a second. The overhead crane remote control systems adjusts the power automatically according to the distance. If the distance is more the transmitter consumes more energy and if the distance is less it consumes less energy.
While close loop communication the transmitter device monitors a few things such as the lost data packet, the communication distance between the receiver and the transmitter, the range of the signal, the number of successful transmissions, the number of errors that occurred, etc. The hopping frequency technique is used by the transmitter device to avoid to keep changing the continuous transmission and to avoid not requiring interference.
The advantage of crane wireless remote control:
Wireless technology is used by the EOT crane remote control device. Because of this, the cranes can be operated from a safe distance. The battery used for the transmitter device is durable and can last a long minimum of 6 months. The transmission of signal in the middle of transmitter and receiver happens more than ten times in a second. The transmitter device can send the signal to the receiver from a long distance even at the low battery also.
The built quality of the transmitter device is so good that it can protect from shock and corrosion. The transmitter device uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band that is globally used. While close loop communication the transmitter device adjusts the power automatically according to the distance. After receiving the signal from the transmitter device the receiver transmits the signal to the transmitter as an acknowledgment. Due to the wireless system, the radio remote device removes the need for wired cable that results in cost-effectiveness.
Conclusion:
Now a EOT crane radio remote is mostly used to manage the cranes as compared to the wired systems. And the wireless radio remote is less expensive than the wired systems, due to which the wireless radio remote device is more in demand. Many manufacturing industries build crane equipment.
Anand Systems Engineering Private Limited is one of them and it is the top crane remote control manufacturers in India. The radio remote device is highly customized and optimized while in use. The transmitter device provides safety and security features. For crane remote control price and its more specification visit the official website.
