Crane control applications demand precise, reliable motor control to ensure smooth operation, improved safety, and reduced mechanical stress. Phase angle control is a proven method used to regulate power supplied to AC motors by adjusting the phase angle of the AC waveform, allowing for accurate control of motor speed and improved operational efficiency. This approach is particularly effective for slip ring motor applications commonly found in crane and hoisting systems.

Saftronics has developed a range of crane controllers using tried and tested SCR phase angle control technology, designed specifically for slip ring motor applications. Built with reliability and ease of maintenance in mind, these controllers feature a modular 19” rack design that allows for quick card replacement, reducing downtime and minimizing the cost of operational spares.

With decades of proven performance in demanding industrial environments, Saftronics crane controllers provide dependable control, smooth operation, and long service life for crane, hoist, and heavy lifting applications.
