Crane remote control systems are control devices used for remotely or locally operating a crane. The crane remote control systems transmit operating commands to the crane control system via pendant control, or Radio means, enabling the equipment to perform lifting, lowering, traveling, slewing, and luffing movements.

VOITTO cranes can customizing with various types of crane remote controls, according to the customer’s technical requirements, such as wireless crane remote control, crane pendant control, and explosion-proof type crane remote control designs for special environments.
Typically, crane remote control systems are used in conjunction with overhead cranes, gantry cranes, EOT cranes, jib cranes, port cranes, and metallurgical cranes. The following are some of our standard products of industrial crane remote control.
There are two primary categories of industrial remote controllers for cranes based on their operation method and control method. One type is a crane push button remote, and the other is a crane joystick controls. Below, I will explain the characteristics of these two types of crane remote controls.

Crane push button remote use buttons as the primary method of operation and are available in single-speed or dual-speed versions. Operators can perform lifting, lowering, forward and backward movement, left and right travel, and stopping by pressing the corresponding function buttons. Button-type remote controls have an intuitive and easy-to-use operating logic, making them suitable for applications where moderate operating precision is required.
Notice: Users can choose between a wired or wireless version of the crane button remote control, depending on their usage needs.

Crane joystick controls systems use a joystick as the primary input method, with the operator pushing or tilting the joystick to control the equipment. Compared to push button remote controls, joystick-type remote controls enable smoother starting and stopping, and more precise speed adjustment, making them suitable for applications requiring high operational accuracy, coordination, and work efficiency. The joystick-style crane controller offers a more premium feel. Typically, users employ it to control large lifting equipment, port cranes, and metallurgical cranes.

In the world of material handling and heavy lifting, gantry cranes and bridge cranes are two of the most widely used and popular types of lifting machines. Although both excel in accurately moving large loads, their unique shapes and applications are somewhat different. This article takes a deep dive into the differences between the two types of cranes to help you determine and familiarize yourself with which type is best for your industrial needs. Structural Differences between Bridge Crane and Gantry Crane. When choosing a crane, it’s crucial to understand the structural differences between bridge cranes and gantry cranes. Although both types of cranes handle or move heavy loads, their structures and support mechanisms are very different. The structural differences between bridge cranes and gantry cranes will be explained in detail next: Bridge Crane: Bridge cranes are mainly composed of main beams, end beams, lifting trolleys or electric hoists, hoisting mechanisms, and other structures. Because its two ends are located in the concrete column or metal support, the shape is like a bridge, so it is called an overhead Travelling crane.…
