ISC The Integrated Stability Control (ISC) is a system that monitors the stability of a crane vehicle. The positioning of the outriggers (fully retracted, half extended, and fully extended), the stabilizer rams (down, up) are registered. Depending on the position of the crane boom, the lifting capacities are adjusted accordingly, whereby a differentiation is made between the left and the right side of the vehicle. |

PowerLink Plus The backwards, above-horizontal extendable knuckle boom on the truck crane opens up possibilities which up to now were inconceivable with conventional crane geometry or which were only feasible with the aid of special additional equipment. The knuckle boom developed by PALFINGER to angle backwards above horizontal enables even the most difficult work to be carried out at high precision in restricted space... |

Interlock PALFINGER cranes are equipped with bubble levels on both control positions for adjusting the crane or vehicle in the horizontal plane as standard with the option of a system for transport position monitoring (audio or visual alarm) and a new extendable outrigger safety system for which a patent is pending. The PALFINGER INTERLOCK SYSTEM has been developed as a unique and highly user-friendly solution for securing the manual extendable outrigger system... |

KTL The KTL (cataphoretic dip paint) process has been used successfully for a number of years now in the automotive industry and is leading to longer and longer warranty periods as far as corrosion damage is concerned. KTL is being deployed by PALFINGER as a new development in the sector for painting all crane components as well as for all other product groups... |

Load Sensing Through the equipment of the control block with a load-sensing proportional valve PALFINGER cranes are made ready for cost-efficient variable pump operation. Compared with a fixed pump, which always supplies the crane with the same quantity of oil, the variable or load-sensing pump delivers only the quantity that is actually needed for the particular crane function... |

AOS The development of the patented AOS system (Active Oscillation Suppression system) resulted from the challenge of damping the oscillations in the crane boom which are a result of its movement and to do so in such a way that more-precise load positioning could be guaranteed... |

Radio remote control In addition to the standard functions of a conventional radio remote control system PALFINGER offers a remote control panel incorporating a display showing the capacity loading level of the crane with an overload indicator. PALFINGER has not only located the overload function directly on the control panel, in the form of an LED display, but also provides an indicator showing the current capacity loading level of the crane itself... |
