Crane Fleet Management System
A shop can be equipped with dozens of cranes, each one requiring a customized monitoring activity and preventive maintenance program to ensure maximum reliability.
The Crane Management System (CrMS) is a PC-based automation package that can collect all the sensitive data from the crane fleet connected via Wi-Fi, and process them for complete REMOTE CONDITION SURVEILLANCE of the crane, as well as scheduling PERSONALIZED MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS.
The data of all cranes can be centralized in a single pulpit and made available to all workstations in the network.
This system can also be directly connected to the Danieli Remote Assistance Service for:
The PC-based CrMS package automatically acquires sensitive data from each crane via the field sensors such as temperature sensors on the motors, absolute encoders on the drums and wheels, incremental encoders on the motor shafts, inverter data, faults, errors, overloading.
This info, stored on the crane's PLC data block, is used to monitor crane operating conditions and calculate a component's expected residual life, as well as to trigger the scheduled activities for each crane ( such as preventive maintenance, programmed component substitution, etc.).
The processed data can be displayed either on the operator panel of each crane or in a centralized remote control room, and can only be reset with a special password generated by CrMS, after the scheduled maintenance has been carried out.

Data logs are generated for:
- Crane life
- Residual crane life
- Machine stress Level
- Percentage of wear of moving parts
- Number of operations of main contactors
- Lifted weight spectrum
-
Working hours of a single motor / inverter
In addition to recording crane operating conditions, this information is used to generate automatic reports and alerts on significant events such as:
- "Live" maintenance schedule (based on real data acquired by sensors, for localized and preventive maintenance)
- Mail alert with wear percentage and maintenance request to the Maintenance Department
- Mail alert with identification code of all the specific components which need to be replaced, in time to order the replacement part, to the Maintenance and Purchasing departments, even taking into account the expected delivery time.
- Re-certification alert, after the specified working hours and usage
The data of all cranes can be centralized in a single pulpit and made available to all workstations in the network.
This system can also be directly connected to the Danieli Remote Assistance Service for:
- Remote access to PLC and HMI software (maintenance, troubleshooting, assistance to start-up, modifications, updates) from an office. Automation maintenance on the crane is no longer required;
- Remote assistance to crane operator;
- Remote assistance to customer maintenance (by Danieli personnel);
- Tele-assistance.
