Recom Moritsch and ABB Develop Automation System for Tower Cranes
Recom Moritsch and ABB developed a redesigned automation system for Recom’s second-generation luffing tower cranes. The project, planned since 2015, focused on safety and reliability for high-rise construction, requiring new control of electric motors and winches. A key goal was fault-free PLC and VSD communication, aided by the removable memory card in ABB’s ACS880 drive.
