Refurbishment control system grab crane

TES Industrial Systems has received the order from Dyckerhoff Beton Neuwied, Germany, to renew the control system of their grab crane.

For the refurbishment of the control system we have carried out the following activities:

We have equipped all movements with new slipring motors contactors. In addition to that, we have replaced the old control system with a Siemens S1500 PLC with I/O stations.

Furthermore, we have expanded the hoisting and closing motors with encoder signal feedback, this replaces the old Siemens Simomat-K system.

During the process, all cabling was left in place. As a result of that we have recreated the new panels very accurately. This means that the old cabling could be properly reconnected.

The new control systems have been tested extensively in our workshop to keep the lead time as short as possible.

Please see the images of the old and new panels below and find the differences.
