World-first collision avoidance technology between mobile and static cranes

To help prevent collisions on site AMCS Technologies was brought in to manage the interference between crawler cranes and tower cranes on a large and busy jobsite in the USA.

The French safety technology specialist said it is a world first that its DCS 61-S system is now managing interferences between the tower and crawler cranes. The cranes are owned by Maxim Crane Works.

The construction project is a major high tech industry site in Arizona where multiple cranes of different types are working together, at the same time.
