Abstract
Large cranes transferring heavy suspended loads are widely used in harbours. Usually they are manually controlled by a skilled operator. The training of a human operator to control a heavy duty crane with suspended load in a dynamic environment takes several years. Therefore robotization of crane work cycles will be desirable. The role of the operator will evidently remain, significant, but automation may have a positive influence on economy and safety, and furthermore, it can increase efficiency by assisting the operator in his tedious and weary work.
