Brief Description:

The primary function of LaseLCPS is to prevent load collisions. It can detect container profiles in stacking areas and determine the load position simultaneously. Each system consists of laser scanners that are mounted on the crane under the trolley platform. The system informs the crane PLC to reduce the crane travel speed or even to stop, in the event of a looming collision or near miss.

Key Features and Other Technical Information:

There is a range of products available which are designed for different types of cranes, including RTG, RMG, aRTG, aRMG and STS cranes.
An option exists to use 2D, 3D or both 2D and 3D laser scanners depending on the use case.

Use Cases

Reduce Likelihood of Collision:
The system can be installed onto STS cranes to help the operator with loading/unloading. The system can reduce the likelihood of the load colliding with other containers.

Summary & Insights

LASE has been awarded to equip 8 RTG cranes with LaseLCPS-3D-2D systems for an OEM in Hong Kong.
The LaseLCPS-3D-2D system is designed for crane safety and is certified as Pl d cat. 3.
It includes a control cabinet with a PC and software, a 3D laser scanner, and a 2D laser scanner mounted under the crane's trolley.
The 2D scanner is responsible for collision monitoring in the trolley-travel direction and the height profile, while the 3D scanner is used for collision avoidance with adjacent container stacks.
