Safety systems

Every move under control.

Height and slew limiters, collision warning and audible-visual warning systems protect people, machine and infrastructure — reliably even under overhead lines, near tracks and on the tightest sites.

Real-time monitoring of the working kinematics

Precise sensors continuously capture boom angle, lift height and slew position. Defined protection zones — such as the safety clearance to the overhead line — are constantly compared. As the machine approaches a limit, the system warns in stages and, if needed, actively intervenes in the hydraulics.

All parameters are freely configurable and can be adapted per site, machine type and regulation — from a simple height stop to complex 3D protected-space monitoring.

The safety building blocks

Height limiter

Prevents exceeding permitted working heights — safe operation under bridges, ceilings and overhead lines.

Slew limiter

Defines safe slew ranges — protects adjacent tracks, traffic and people in the work area.

Collision warning

Sensor-based surroundings monitoring detects obstacles early and warns in stages — visually and audibly.

Warning systems

Audible and visual signalling for people and surroundings — adaptable to noise-protection and regulatory requirements.

Operator display

Clear visualisation of zones, angles and status right in the cab — intuitive and glare-free.

Protected-space monitoring

3D definition of complex restricted areas for demanding operations in confined environments.
