World’s Leading Rubber Tyre Gantry (RTG) Crane Manufacturing Company makes use of our Captive LoRa Wireless Solution for their RTG.

The Problem:

One of the leading Rubber Tyre Gantry (RTG) crane Manufacturing Company was facing data delivery issue while using Auto Gantry Steering System (AGSS). The company reported that they are facing interference issues while data transfer of AGSS correction data while on the RTG supplied at the busiest container handling terminal in India.

The Application:

AGSS is a technology used to control the steering of the RTG, based on the GPS co-ordinates & correct the steering direction. Being this process involves control of steering, it calls for no data loss over the air.
