Our DC control upgrades work with many different crane types & crane applications.

Overhead cranes in industry are the critical material handling systems used by businesses to manufacture, position, locate, and/or transport their products within their facilities. As businesses grow, so does their production demands and their equipment availability and reliably needs. This same demand can apply to the material handling capabilities of their in-house overhead electric cranes.

Our crane upgrades help you work smarter, not harder.

Knowing when it’s time to upgrade.

Aging overhead cranes built with dated DC control drive technologies may not be able to meet these increasing business performance requirements. Whether this is a result of excessive equipment repair down time, maintenance down time, or simply from the crane’s own operational performance inefficiencies, these are often the primary drivers when considering whether it is time to modernize your crane’s obsolescent DC controls. While the vast majority of new cranes manufactured today utilize AC drive technology, significant reasons still exist to modernize your crane with today’s state-of-the-art DC drive controls.
