• Jib crane

Additional crane application information for MEU and
partners• Following some information which
should help to get a better understanding of the crane market requirements and where Mitsubishi has advantages and disadvantages.
• Critical issues for certain crane types will be mentioned.
• Feel free to use any of these information for your customers.
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Typical for Cranes
• High overload (Cranes are often overloaded from user side, and used outside the manufacturers specification)
• Smooth movement• Control of mechanical Brake• Secure magnetization of sliding rotor motors
(Works good with FR-A700)
• Hoist speed 5-25m/min• Travel speed 15-80m/min • Brake resistor need high specification
(40-50% power of hoist motor capacity, for 100% ED, because of long travel distance)
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Typical for Cranes
• 90% of the hoists use an encoder feedback
• 70% of bigger cranes use piezo-ceramic load sensor for load management
• For retrofit you have to take care of insulation class of the motor and shaft voltage ( insulated bearings).
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Mitsubishi performance
• High overload capacity• Easy and precise auto tuning• High temperature without derating
(temp. under the roof can be 10-20°C higher than on the ground)
• No booksize inverter, standard cabinets for cranes have mainly 300mm depth
• Robust and dirt resistant design• Internal structure is built to resist high
vibration levels (which are usual for cranes)
• Steady and precise speed control
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Things to take care of for tower cranes
• Torsional forces due to wind or load movement-> Independent torque limit for each working quadrant in FR-A700
• Instantaneous power failure due to brush contacts-> Instantaneous power failure function in FR-A700
• Safe working angles-> Define SW limit switches in inbuilt PLC function
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Things to take care of for bridge and portal cranes
• Travel motor can be way bigger than hoist motor (Travel structure can be really heavy. E.g. a bridge crane with 3.6 t nominal load and 28 m wingspan can reach a mass of 25 t)
• Often two motor are connected to one inverter. Combined according to there motor capacity (Combination 1: hoist with boom hoist and trolley with gantrycombination 2: hoist with gantry and trolley with boom)
• A700 overload capacity is meeting the requirements (150% 60s is enough for travel, 150% 60s and 200% 3s is enough for hoist)
• Electrical design of control is more complex due to safety issues
• Mainly brushes are used, due to long moving distance and existing rail structure (Voltage dips/spikes should be avoided by using more than one set of pickups. AC choke and IPF-function helps too)
• Hoist drive for cranes bigger 15 t often have a dual drum with a single rope (Problem is to have equal amount of rope on the two drums)
• For container cranes a teachable positioning is used
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Things to take care of for Jib cranes
• Easy crane structure, so only general requirements
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Crane Types Categorisation
• Due to the wide range of crane types it makes sense to divide the crane applications into different groups due to the complexity.
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Crane Types Low complex
• Controlled manually by joystick / push buttons in jog operation
• No measurements of speed, position or load
• Inverter technical features like s-curve acceleration, brake function etc. is enough
• Inbuilt PLC is used for speed limit switches and pendant control
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Crane Types Mid complex without external PLC
• Controlled manually by joystick in jog operation, or easy vertical positioning
• Encoder feedback • Inverter technical features like s-curve acceleration,
brake function etc. is enough• Adjustment to application by internal PLC• Load management with external sensor and inbuilt PLC• Inbuilt PLC is used for speed limit switches and pendant
control• Displaying data on HMI or PU07• Use of regenerative units
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
Crane Types High complex with external PLC
• Control automatically and manually• Encoder feedback• Network communication (Often Profibus and Ethernet)
• Positioning vertical and horizontal• High complex functions like safety, load
management, synchronising all moving axis are realised in the external PLC
• Optimised duty cycle, by automatised movement• Displaying data on HMI • Use of regenerative units

• There are a lot of possibilities to adjust the Mitsubishi inverters to the application. Whether standard functions , plug in options or dedicated firmware.

Regenerative energy
• Regenerative energy is always an issue in crane applications. The decision for a certain regenerative option is based on the following application characteristic.

FR-RC & MT-RC POWER REGENERATION CONVERTER
• Energy generated at braking operation of the inverter can be regenerated to the power supply. Since a converter does not require a discharging resistor, it is effective in space and energy saving and it provides a large peak braking torque.
• One inverter connected to one FR/MT-RC.
INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER /// INVERTER
FR-CVPOWER REGENERATIONCOMMON CONVERTER
• Enables 100%-torque continuous regeneration to support continuous regenerative operation for line control.
• Saves energy since regeneration energy is used for the other inverters and excess energy is returned to the power supply.
• Up to six inverters connected to one FR-CV.

FR-HC & MT-HCHIGH POWER FACTOR CONVERTER
• Substantially suppresses power harmonics. Power regeneration function featured as standard enables common converter system operation with multiple inverters connected.
• Up to six inverters connected to one FR/MT-HC
