The anti collision device prevents collision with nearby structures, buildings, trees and other tower cranes working at the close vicinity. The component is critical as it provides total safety coverage to the tower cranes. In India one of the key players providing anti collision device is Everest Engineering.
Everest Engineering Equipment Pvt. Ltd. (EEE) is in the business of providing high-quality construction equipment and infrastructure equipment. The company, under the astute leadership of its founder who has close to three decades of experience, has deeply entrenched itself in the Indian market in a short span of time.
Everest Engineering Equipment Pvt Ltd has supplied Anti collision devices combined with SLI (Safe load Indication & control) to various customers in India. This has been developed for the full safety during the working of multiple cranes in the same site. These are microprocessor based technology combined with wireless radio communication along with ground monitoring & upload station.
Features of Everest Anti collision device or tower cranes
Everest have come up with a new system which has additional features of safe load indicator (SLI) inbuilt, those the customer need not by a separate SLI and separate Anti Collision device, both are inbuilt in one system itself. Some of the features of company’s anti collision device are-
- The collision device has been customized following Indian site requirements, taking into consideration factors like frequent power disruption stalling the operation of the tower cranes midway in operations or wind conditions.
- Based on the factors, the anti collision pack has a monitoring system installed at the ground that monitors the working of the crane in clusters.
- It then uploads the data to the crane operators working in the zone to take note of other cranes working in the zone to avoid the collision.
- On power disruption to a crane, it passes information to other cranes to stall operation to the power disrupted crane to avoid the collision.
- These Anti Collision devices are designed to work with any make of tower crane and any model of tower crane whether it is Topkit type or Flat top type or Luffing type, any tower crane this can be used and the height can go up to 1 km, even if somebody makes the height more than 1 km also, we can match that requirement.
- The technology adopted in these machines are simple microprocessor technology. 30 number of tower cranes can be controlled at a time with the powerful ACD software with a supporting Ground monitoring system.
- Microprocessor-based Anti-collision system software does not get corrupted due to frequent power failures or frequent ON/OFF. It consumes about 3-4 sec to power up and start working from its current positions. For the frequent power failures, the company also supply UPS power backup, which will take care of the Anti-Collision system for 1 hour. The anti-collision system also has some special effect of stop entering the Tower crane area whose power is Off.
- It senses the other tower cranes continuously and stops entering its area whose power is off / anti collision is off. The tower crane may rotate on the wind if the power failed. This effect ensures additional safety during a power failure.
- These anti collision systems are designed to work for any Tower crane, wherever multiple tower cranes are working, this device work irrespective of the sector.
