Cranes & Crickets?

Crickets are delicious to a wide array of animals, and also cannot fly. So they have evolved a few smart ways to avoid danger. For instance small hairs on their abdomen and legs can detect vibrations less than 150 Hz, making them highly sensitive to movement and sound.

The Konecranes Port Services range of port crane Safety-Assist retrofit adaptations use lasers, sensors and DGPS to evolve your fleet into one that can also swiftly detect dangerous obstacles and situations. 

Welcome to the evolution of your fleet.
