This paper presents the use of anti-sway angle control approaches for a two-dimensional gantry crane with disturbances effect in the dynamic system. Delayed feedback signal (DFS) and proportional-derivative (PD)-type fuzzy logic controller are the techniques used in this investigation to actively control the sway angle of the rope of gantry crane system. A nonlinear overhead gantry crane system...

The paper talk over the proposal of use a combined vision system architecture for solved well known issue occurring in material handling devices (MHDs) exploitation, especially in the crane devices. The described in the presented paper stereovision system for work space mapping and non-contact sensor type for rope angle swinging measure were a part of solutions enabling a full autonomous naviga...

The process of surveying crane runways has been continually refined due to the competitive situation, modern surveying instruments, additional sensors, accessories and evaluation procedures. Guidelines, such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 12488-1, define target values that must be determined by survey. For a crane runway these are for example the span, the position ...
