Palfinger assisted crane folding

Palfinger loader cranes has launched the P-Fold assistance system on its PALcom P7 radio remote controller. The system will be available on all cranes in its SH model series, from the PK 42002 SH to the top of the line PK 200002 L SH.

The assistance system is activated with the crane in fully stowed position, and can then be moved with a single control lever, with the intelligent P-Fold controls taking over co-ordination of the crane movements until a defined working position is reached.

Once the lift has been completed, the crane can be folded from any working position, with a single control movement, as the P-Fold system again takes over coordination of all crane functions, including any fly jibs and hoists that might be fitted – until the crane is fully stowed. The system will be available from this month on.
