MHC SPC600 Control Upgrade

A simple way to extend the operating life and availability of your mobile harbor crane.  

Why Upgrade the MHC’s Programable Logic Controller?

After 10 to 20 years, the steel structure of MHCs is likely to last for more years, but:

  • The computer hardware and software components in these cranes are now obsolete.    
  • Sourcing original spares and support is no longer possible. This negatively impacts crane availability and terminal productivity.
  • The SPC600 control upgrade includes one selected PC, monitors, a CodeSys 3.5 control system and VISUMATIC 8 as well as a UPS.
