To enhance efficiency, safety, and ergonomics of bridge cranes, Demag is advancing the development and research of innovative assistance features, such as automated operator following and tandem operation for moving large loads. The goal is to offer these new functions as retrofit options for existing systems, without the need for costly new data cable installations.

In the production facilities of a major German automotive manufacturer, rail-guided, driverless transport systems (RGVs) are used to move vehicles reliably from station to station. A central requirement was the ability to safely shut down all vehicles within a safety time of 200 ms – even while roaming across an area of 100 m × 40 m. With BlitzFunk, LOSYCO was able to implement a reliable, scalable, and Ethernet-transparent wireless system for the entire line.
