TMEIC has a long, proud history in the crane industry, supplying equipment and systems throughout the world. 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.
