WIRELESS RADIO REMOTE-CONTROL SYSTEMS FOR OVERHEAD CRANES
Munck Cranes is a leading supplier of radio remote control systems for all types of overhead cranes and material handling equipment.
Many companies are familiar with using pendant controls to operate lifting equipment, where the control cables are wired directly into the equipment. Remote control systems function in an identical way; however, it uses a radio frequency for complete wireless control. Our industrial radio systems ae made up of both a handheld remote-control transmitter and a remote-control receiver which mounts directly to your material handling equipment.
​
For lifting and transporting heavy loads, safety is a primary concern. The Munck line of industrial remote controls comes standard with many built in features to improve safety and they have a large range of mobility compared to other radios and pendant stations. Keep your operators safe by allowing them to operate cranes and material handling equipment from a safe distance.
