Vibration damping for a lifting device

Intelligent vibration damping for stable lifting operations
A powerful vibration damping controller was developed to improve the dynamics and stability of a lifting device. The aim was to effectively control vibrations under varying operating conditions. A robust and transferable solution was created using modern model-based methods.
Challenges & technologies
- Improvement of an active vibration damping controller
- Use under changing operating conditions
- Data-based model identification
- Model-based controller design
- Analysis of the effects of delay times
Solution & benefit
- Reduced vibrations for precise lifting operations
- Increasing the performance of the controller
- Transferability to different product configurations
