Motion compensated offshore crane

TTS Offshore Solutions has delivered several large knuckle-boom cranes with active heave compensation that have CDP-based control systems.

The cranes operate in accordance with DNVs Lifting Appliances standard. The control system implements active wave compensation to ensure gentle non-destructive handling of advanced and expensive subsea equipment during subsea construction. The user interface includes a live load chart helping the operator to keep within the cranes permitted operating parameters.

In addition, the control systems manage the HPU (hydraulic pressure units with pumps and motors) and communication with numerous other subsystems throughout the vessels
