Next-generation Crane Advance Remote Monitoring System (CARMS) and its Advanced Preventive Maintenance
Realization of IoT platform for next-generation crane maintenance management
CARMS collects and analyzes critical data related to cranes. These data are transferred and accumulated on the cloud managed by our company. In addition, data can be visualized and viewed through a web browser on a PC or tablet. This makes it possible to monitor the crane status "anytime" and "anywhere". Furthermore, by adding sensors to various equipment on the crane, we are constantly expanding advanced preventive maintenance functions that make it possible to grasp equipment lifespans and signs of failure. Through CARMS, we will be contributing to the improvement of the reliability of customer ports and streamlining port operations.
*CARMS is the shortform of the Crane Advanced Remote Monitoring System provided by our company.
Main Features
Store crane data in the cloud
- The status of the crane can be checked from the office or even outside
- Even if the data collection equipment breaks down, the data accumulated so far will be maintained
*If you don't want to use the cloud, you can also provide it as a stand-alone
Check data with a web browser
- Can be monitored on a normal PC. No special device or software required.
- Multiple users can share information based on the same screen
Download reports and data from remote locations
- Output work diaries, cargo handling reports, wind direction and speed logs, etc.
- No need to climb the crane to obtain the output data
Analyzing log data and sensor data for preventive maintenance
- Detect signs of failure before it breaks
- Grasping the remaining service life of parts
*As it is an option, functions can be selected according to user's needs.
It is also possible to develop functions according to the customer's problems.
