What it does:
It minimizes the change of working radius which occurs while loading the boom – taking weight on winch.
The excpected change in radius is automatically calculated and compensated for by adjusting the boom angle.
It needs to be manualy activated, but deactivates itself once stable load moment is detected.
Tadano Faun claims the invention as a safety device for cranes.
