Anti-Skew System for Container Crane

Abstract

This paper is describes the anti-skew control system suitable for container crane used in container yards. We developed the new type anti-skew control system performed to damp oscillatory skew movements automatically for improvement of the container handling efficiency. This system controls the skew cylinder device as the skew vibration detected by the sway sensor. The result shows the anti-skew control system performs well in container handling operation.
