KESLA Quick allows up to four different control types to be used in one crane

21.09.2021 News

Kesla Oyj is introducing a quick change of the truck crane control method – KESLA Quick. It allows up to four different control methods to be used in one crane. The quick change of the control method is available for Kesla’s own KESLA proC truck crane control system, which is the most popular control system in the company’s cranes.

Four control types, an unlimited number of individual adjustments

With the help of KESLA Quick, a crane equipped with the KESLA proC control system can now smoothly make use of two to four different control types. In addition to the mini and maxi joysticks, the maxi joystick + pedals combination and the 4 levers + pedals combination are possible.

If there is no need for all four control types, the customer can choose what they need, for example just the mini joysticks and maxi joysticks. In the proC control system, there can be up to five user profiles, containing the control type and individual adjustments, on one crane.

Changed in a few minutes

It takes only few minutes to change the control type. In practice, this means detaching and attaching the joysticks with quick couplers and, of course, selecting the right operator profile. It takes no more than a few minutes and requires no tools.

If a control type selected by the customer requires the use of pedals, they will remain in place at all times and be deactivated as necessary.

Operator comfort is key

Kesla has invested heavily in operator comfort in recent years. One important area is the control systems. The new control type quick change – KESLA Quick – allows flexible use of the crane among operators who are accustomed to different control types. In a field where there is high demand for skilled workers, a crane that is not tied to a single control method is a clear advantage.

“Usually, operators are clearly inclined to a specific control type,” says Business Director Ari Pirhonen of Kesla Oyj’s Truck and Industrial Cranes business.

“With the new system, new operators can always be offered their preferred control type.”

The KESLA Quick system is also expected to be useful in the crane rental business.  

Also available for retrofit It is also possible to retrofit the KESLA Quick change system, if the crane is equipped with the KESLA proC control system.
