Our control systems are designed to meet the most demanding applications and environmental conditions, including the latest in automation for both manned and unmanned operation to maximize crane productivity.
Crane Automation
Labor savings, increased yard productivity, reduced equipment maintenance and downtime, and increased safety. These are only some of the advantages provided by advanced crane automation solutions available from TMEIC. You can leverage TMEIC’s broad experience in crane control and container handling to your advantage with crane automation systems tailored to maximize these advantages for your operation.
TMEIC offers fully automated solutions for container handling, from productivity-increasing vision to full automation of the cranes in the yard. Maxspeed® crane control systems uses adjustable speed drives to control speed and direction of the crane motors driving the gantry, trolley, cable reels and hoist. Maxspeed® crane control systems provide very fast reaction time to operator joystick with precise control to achieve high rate of crane production. Maxview® crane vision systems from improve productivity and increase safety, even in manual operations. Additionally, TMEIC’s automation solutions can be applied to both new and existing cranes.
TMEIC has over 3000 Maxspeed® Digital Crane Control Systems installed worldwide. Our globally recognized engineering team, combined with our products – which are manufactured under the world’s highest quality standards – guarantees the performance and reliability of the crane operation, even for the most demanding ports in the world.

Maxview Smart Landing® System for Ship to Shore Cranes

Maxview Smart Landing® system is a laser-based ship profile and operator landing assists system that increases ship-to-shore crane productivity and reduce damage and operation noise.
• Reduces damage to spreader and headblock
• Increases life of hoist cables
• Reduces operating noise level
• Reduces damage to crane structure
Fuel Efficient RTG Crane Control - MaxFuelSaver™

MaxFuelSaver™ for RTG cranes from TMEIC. Diesel engine speed is carefully controlled at every load. The system employs a standard TMEIC converter supplying DC power to the constant voltage bus feeding the hoist, trolley, and gantry drives and motors. A standard TMEIC inverter regenerates power whenever loads are decelerating, and supplies this power to auxiliary loads such as the air conditioning, brakes, pumps, etc. It should be noted the system does not reduce the acceleration time of the hoist so throughput is not affected.
• Variable Speed Generator control
• Reduces engine maintenance
• Reduces fuel consumption 24-42%
• Hoist acceleration rate is not compromised
• Reduces engine emissions
• Reduces audible noise
Maxview Smart Move™ System for Rubber Tire Gantry Cranes

Maxview Smart Move™ reduces damage from claims for toppled container stacks. Maxview Smart Move™ system avoids crane and container collisions by efficiently regulating hoist and trolley speeds during operations.
• Reduced container damage claims
• Reduces spreader damage
• Increased Productivity
• Reduces operating noise level
