Wireless self installable crane lmi-rated capacity indicator

Picture
If you have a factory crane LMI that has failed and are looking to put on a new system, the most cost effective path for you is to retrofit a Cranesmart Wireless Rated Capacity Indicator onto your crane. 

Why?

If you take the path to replace the factory LMI, you will need to have a technician to come onsite to install the system and perform the calibration, this will cost you additional dollars; often airfare, labor & travel charges of up to $5,000.00, or more.  This is on top of the system price.  

​With a Cranesmart Wireless Rated Capacity Indicator you can perform the installation on your own, backed up by our 7 days a week technical support, this will save you $$.

On a Cranesmart Wireless Rated Capacity Indicator, the load weight value is calculated by reading the strain on the wire rope. This is done by using a load pin in a boom tip sheave, a running line tensiometer (linerider) or a dead-end load cell installed at the becket end of the wire rope (most common). A digital load chart is created in the display to show load rated capacity.  

Calibration is simpler on an RCI as it removes the step of empty/loaded boom weight calibration for all boom configurations, as seen in an LMI. Cranesmart Load Links are shipped pre-calibrated.  Line Rider & Load Pin Calibrations are done on site to train the load sensing device as to the strain on the wire rope and convert it to a weight value. A cable reel and angle sensor are used as it is on the LMI to calculate radius.  

On a lattice boom crane, the RCI installation is much simpler and less costly from a calibration perspective as compared to a load moment system. A lattice boom RCI uses a wireless strain gauge load sensor and an angle sensor for radius calculation.

David Smith, President of Scale and Control has been providing the crane industry with crane weighing solutions for the past 30 years.  Our Engineering/Technical Support Manager Ryan Wadewitz has extensive engineering and technical support experience having worked for a US crane manufacturer for many years.  We have the knowledge and experience that you can trust.  We provide 7 days a week product support.  Give us a call so that we can assist you with your next crane weighing solution today. 888-239-0552.

Cranesmart Self Installable LMI-Rated capacity indicator

LMI System

  • Designed for hydraulic and lattice boom applications
  • The Cranesmart  (LMI)  (Rated Capacity Indication system) displays the crane position, capacity and crane load indication on each hook at all times during operation.  The system gives both audible and visual warning in overload or Anti Two Block condition.  Engineered lockouts are available for most cranes.
  • Overload prevention system clearly displays crane load indication on the hook and rated capacity
  • Shows the radius of the crane and boom angle indication
  • Level and slew position indicators can be integrated into the system if needed
  • Function kick outs are available for most machines
  • Anti-2-Block system and wind speed options are available
  • 2 year warranty, 10 year minimum serviceable life
  • Free sensor replacement batteries for life of system
