Benefits of continuous monitoring

Extending the lifetime of cranes and cranes girders

Aging cranes and excessive downtime due to maintenance? We work together with steel manufacturers, engineering and consulting companies to continuously monitor the structural health of vital assets such as EOT cranes, girders and other assets.

 

Our technology provides accurate insights into the remaining structural lifetime of steel structures using certified permanently installed wireless sensors that detect small fatigue cracks in critical locations. 

Continuous & accurate inspection

Continuous data enables early detection of problems ensuring safety for the structure and its users. 

Competitive pricing

Wireless monitoring reduced the need for frequent manual inspections and prevents unplanned downtime and maintenance.

Carefree installation

Only 10 minutes installation time per sensor unit, no surface preparation required.

Reduced downtime

Monitoring structural health without stopping the crane. 

Case study

>15% Increase in EOT Crane Lifetime

In the dynamic realm of steel production, the lifetime of cranes is a critical factor. Keeping these vital assets safe and reliable can often result in excessive downtime, costly inspections, maintenance, and premature replacements.

Preventive placement as EOT crane reaches end-of-life

With continuous monitoring of the cranes' structural health, the steel manufacturer avoided premature replacement and excessive maintenance. The end-of-lifetime for each asset could now be precisely assessed – and increased – through the valuable data acquired. 

 

The solution increased asset uptime and unlocked a new level of asset management, enabling a proactive and data-driven approach to ensure longevity and reliability of the cranes in crucial operations.
