Why Use the AntiCrab_2 Function Block?

The usage of the AntiCrab_2 function block helps to prevent:

oExcessive wear and tear on wheels and stress to wheel flanges.

oHorizontal forces at right angles to the rail that can result in abnormal stress to the crane, runway beams, and building structure.

It is achieved by reducing the skew and drift of the bridge in industrial cranes.

 

This function block is intended to have significant influence on the physical movement of the crane and its load. The application of this function block requires accurate and correct input parameters in order to make its movement calculations valid and to avoid hazardous situations. If invalid or otherwise incorrect input information is provided by the application, the results may be undesirable.

UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

Validate all function block input values before and while the function block is enabled.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Solution with the AntiCrab_2 Function Block

Analog sensors measure the displacement of the bridge from the rail. These signals are used to take corrective measures so that the bridge remains parallel to the rail.
