Hydraulic harbour cranes
The viewing problem
The hydraulic harbour crane is an important link in the loading and unloading of particular inland shipping vessels. Due to his relatively low working position, the crane operator often has insufficient visibility of the work area, mostly at the beginning of loading and the end of unloading.
The Orlaco solution
The camera that is fitted onto the grasping arm ensures optimum visibility of the grasper at all times. The camera allows the crane operator to work more easily as well as increasing safety in the workplace.
Applications
A rear view camera can also be connected to the monitor.

FAQ
With the help of a switcher, it is possible to connect three cameras to one monitor. The operator needs to just push a button to switch between the various cameras.
A quad makes it possible to view a maximum of four cameras simultaneously on one monitor. We advise you to use a 10" monitor. A screen splitter allows for viewing a maximum of two cameras at one moment. In this case, the standard 7" monitor is adequate.
Yes, a rear vision and front vision system can be extended with a navigation system. All of these three functions are then combined on a single monitor.
Yes, an existing load view vision system can be extended, (depending on the application that is needed) with a winch view, rear vision and/or front vision system.
The Orlaco camera systems for tower and lattice boom cranes can either be purchased or rented. A custom-made vision solution is available depending on the requirements of the customer.
Wireless connections are used mostly in telescope, tower and mobile tower cranes. The main reason for this is the variable distance between the camera and the monitor. A solid cable connection would be in these instances extremely vulnerable to damages due to the increased possibility of the cable breaking.
