The sway control system is for new crane controllers, but it can also be retrofitted to legacy crane controllers.

SIMOCRANE CeSAR Sway Control Systems can also be used in cranes in which drive technology from other suppliers is used.

The requirements for the use of SIMOCRANE Sway Control Systems are a crane controller as well as continuously controllable drives. In some cases, position sensors are necessary. In all cranes, sensors are required for the hoisting gear and for the axes to be positioned if automatic positioning is used.

SIMOCRANE Sway Control Systems are suitable for the following crane types:

• Overhead bridge cranes (OHBC)
• Rubber tired gantry (RTG) cranes
• Rail mounted gantry (RMG) cranes
• Container (STS - ship to shore) cranes
• Grab/ship unloader (GSU) cranes
