This paper proposes a simple but efficient technique to control 3D overhead crane. Load must track a desired path and not sway more than a reasonable range.The proposed method uses PID control for trolley to track the desired path and fuzzy control compensation to eliminate the load swing. Only the projection of swing angle is applied to design the fuzzy controller. No plant information of cran...

In this paper, a study on the role of force feedback for teleoperation of industrial overhead crane is presented. Teleoperation of industrial crane was described and analyzed. We proposed several types of force feedback signals which can reduce sway motion in industrial crane. First, force feedback signal was selected and designed based on dynamic model of the system. Then, we simplified force ...

For low cost, easy assembly and less maintenance, overhead crane systems have been widely used for material transportation in many industrial applications. Due to the requirements of high positioning accuracy, small swing angle, short transportation time, and high safety, both motion and stabilization control for an overhead crane system becomes an interesting issue in the field of control tech...

As an example of a spatial manipulator with large work space a 3-DOF overhead crane is considered. A nonlinear model of the overhead crane, including drive dynamics, is derived. The drives of trolley and winch are controlled by velocity controllers. Therefore the dynamics of the drives can be approximated and thus included into the model description. The states of the system are parameterized b...

Abstract By the current research, a PID tuning procedure is developed to control of an overhead crane. To enable the crane to reach a desired position, a controller design strategy must be used. This work presents a simple and efficient enough approach to control of the overhead crane based on designing a PID controller. Ziegler-Nichols method is used to initiate gains setting for PID controlle...

In this paper, a new fuzzy anti-swing control scheme is proposed for a three-dimensional overhead crane. The proposed control consists of a position servo control and a fuzzy-logic control. The position servo control is used to control crane position and rope length, and the fuzzy-logic control is used to suppress load swing. The proposed control guarantees accurate control of crane position an...

This paper is introduced to be the obstacle recognition, path planning and oscillating control for an automobile crane system on-line. We studied the autonomous mobile overhead traveling crane so for. In particular, the research of obstacle recognition, path plan and oscillating control is carried out. For on-line obstacle recognition, the obstacle recognition system using the ultrasonic sensor...
