The controls on a crane provide the user interface for lifting operations and connect the crane with its operating environment, creating a safer and more efficient material flow.

Konecranes controls are specially designed for lifting applications. An ergonomic user interface, secure connectivity to surrounding machines and Smart Features ensure safe and efficient load handling. Remote connectivity has enabled more efficient monitoring and maintenance services. It has also provided an extensive collection of data on the real-world use of cranes, providing the world’s largest database of industry-leading knowledge to further optimize operational efficiency for specific applications and business needs.

Together, the gearbox, motor and control system are what we call the Core of Lifting.

Konecranes equipment is known for its outstanding safety, reliability and ease of use. Cutting-edge technology provides smooth operation, optimized material flow and fact-based maintenance decisions with full transparency for everyone involved.

How is this possible?
For manual operation, there are four human-machine interface options: pendant/radio controller, cabin, Remote Operating Station or separate control room.

On value class cranes, the operator controls the crane with classic push buttons. For continuous operation, joysticks are available. An additional full graphic display offers a wide selection of visibility and supporting tools for operation and maintenance.
