Wireless remote control crane

Wireless remote control technology has been very widely used. Whether it is satellites or household appliances mostly can be controlled by wireless remote control technology. RF control can fully liberate people from complicated manual labor, and wireless operates any electronic equipment at a distance as much as they want. The development of wireless remote control technology make people enable to enjoy the charm of science, also reduce labor intensity, improve labor productivity, and improve job safety. Crane is mainly used to load and unload objects, widely used in construction sites, commercial, factories, farms, supermarkets, and other occasions. Using wireless remote control technology can achieve crane wireless control. Crane wireless remote control system has the following advantages.
1. Reducing manpower costs. For cranes, truck cranes and other equipment, the operator can operate the equipment along with the wireless remote control technology, and no longer need the assistance of other people. Also, the single person can manage a number of cranes, so the operator is able to control the other equipment while manipulating the crane simultaneously.
2. Increasing the efficiency of operation. Because the operator can operate the equipment alone, it improves the accuracy and efficiency of the operation, avoids misunderstandings between the device operator and the ground commander, and applies to the precise installation operation such as equipment assembly.
3. Improve the environmental safety. When a worker operates equipment in toxic gas, high temperature, dusty and dangerous place, the operator can choose the environment that is suitable and safe to operate the equipment, the operator’s personal safety is protected, and the operation conditions have been improved.
Different types of cranes require different wireless control systems. When we use a wireless control system to control the single-phase crane, it is necessary to change the original control circuit of the single-phase crane. The scheme is simple and easy to do. For example, see Figure 1 below:


The single-phase crane is composed of a wired control handle, an emergency button, a limit switch, a fan, an AC motor (with a starting capacitor), a winch and a wire rope. The principle of the work is to use the forward and reverse rotation of the motor to drive the winch, and to make the wire rope be extended or retracted. The electrical schematic of this single phase crane is shown in Figure 2:


According to the electrical diagram of the wired control handle, we recommend a set of the wireless remote control system, the receiver model is 0020451 (S6C-AC220), the remote control model is 0021004 (C-3-2). The S6C-AC220 receiver in AC 100~240V power supply, it has 6 relay output (normally open and closed type), which has two kinds of control mode (momentary mode and interlock mode). The remote C-3-2 has three buttons (▲,▼,▇) with protective cover. The wireless control system can achieve the maximum distance of 100 meters in the open area. If you want to further control the distance, you can connect an external antenna to the receiver and use another high power remote controller, the model is 0021047 (CB-3-2).
The wireless remote control system installation process is as follows:
1. The receiver S6C-AC220 has 6 relay outputs. We need to change the receiver’s circuit so that the ▲ button of the remote control can simultaneously control the 3 relays on the left, and the ▼button can simultaneously control the 3 relays on the right. Circuit modification is shown in Figure 3 below :

2. We analyze the role of each line in the wired control handle, the wired control handle shown in Figure 4 below:

 Based on the analysis of the wired control handle and the crane electrical diagram, we know the function of all wires on the wired control handle, as shown in Figure 5 below.

 3. Use the receiver instead of the wired control handle, and the original wired control handle must be removed. The connection between the receiver and the motor is shown in Figure 6 below.
1. The receiver is set into a momentary mode, and the operation process is as follows: Press and hold the button ▲ on the transmitter: The relays 2, 4 and 6 are activated, the crane rotates in a positive direction. Release button ▲ on the transmitter: The relays 2, 4 and 6 are deactivated, the crane stops working. Press and hold the button ▼ on the transmitter: The relays 1, 3 and 5 are activated, the crane rotates in reversal direction. Release button ▼ on the transmitter: The relays 1, 3 and 5 are deactivated, the crane stops working. 2. The receiver is set up to latched mode, and the operation process is as follows: Press button ▲ on the transmitter: The relays 2, 4 and 6 are activated, the crane rotates in a positive direction. Press button ▇ on the transmitter: The relays 2, 4 and 6 are deactivated, the crane stops working. Press button ▼ on the transmitter: The relays 1, 3 and 5 are activated, the crane rotates in reversal direction. Press button ▇ on the transmitter: The relays 1, 3 and 5 are deactivated, the crane stops working. One of our customers used our wireless remote control system to make a set of wirelessly controlled elevator with the following video.

Short Description of Toggle / Momentary / Latched Working Modes

Generally there are three working modes for rf remote controls: toggle, momentary, latched. Toggle mode is used most often. Controlling lamp, for example, press the button of remote, turn on the lamp; press the button again, turn off the lamp. Momentary mode can be set to control rolling blind or rolling door. Press and hold the button of remote, open the blind or door; release the button, close the blind or door. Both toggle and momentary mode are motivated by single relay, which means you can work these two modes with single button remote. As regards the latched mode, it is motivated by relay group. For relay group, only one relay will be on at a time, e.g. press remote button A, relay A will be on, and relay B will be off; press remote button B, relay B will be on, and relay A will be off. To be more specific, when you control the lamp by latched mode, you should prepare at least two buttons remote. Press button A, the lamp is on; press button B, the lamp is off. Online s...

Remote Control Electromagnetic Lock

Image
Electromagnetic lock is a locking device that consists of an electromagnet and an armature plate. The principle behind an electromagnetic lock is the use of electromagnetism to lock a door when energized. Essentially it consists of an electromagnet attracting a conductor with a force large enough to prevent the door from being opened. That is to say, if only we could cut off power supply and make electromagnet force between electromagnet and armature plate to disappear, the door would be opened. Furthermore, we just try to use a direct dc output momentary remote and one button transmitter to cut off electric power to open the door. The following demonstration will show. At first, we prepare material. The wiring When we supply power to electromagnetic lock, electromagnet will attract armature plate through magnetic force. The door is locked. When we press button, the power supply will be cut off. The door is open as soon as electromagnetic lock unlock instantly. What’s more, t...

AC Lamp is Controlled by Customized Delay Time RF Remote Controller

Image
We recommend 1channel 110V~220V customized delay time controller (S1RD-AC220+C-2). At first, it must be set delay time in advance. According to your own actual requirement, you can set delay time you want. e. g. delay time: 20 seconds. You cannot change delay time once it is set. It is applied for controlling lights, motors, fans, electrically operated door/ lock/windows/ blinds/ cars or other appliances with AC 110~240V or DC 0~28V. You can turn on/off device on the receiver with transmitter from any place within reliable distance (theoretical distance 100m), the wireless RF signal can pass through wall, floors, doors and other obstacles. Wiring: Initial state: B, C = Normally Open; A, B = Normally Closed. AC lamp is wired to normally open terminals B&C. And add additional ac power to AC lamp. The delay time is set in advance. It is non-adjustable.   Press button 1: Turn on the relay (connect B and C, disconnect A and B) After ...
