Prolec total machine safety in a single controller

Machine control and safety specialist Prolec has developed a total machine control system, called Prolec Machine Engine (PME). Rather than having separate controllers for safety applications such as weighing, stability and safe load indication, plus additional controllers for digging applications and data capture, the PME aims to combine all of these features in a single module. Suitable for all makes of machines and capable of working with cranes, telehandlers, excavators, backhoe loaders, concrete, fork l

PME will run a range of applications from safety to machine control
RSSMachine control and safety specialist 309 Prolec has developed a total machine control system, called Prolec Machine Engine (PME).

Rather than having separate controllers for safety applications such as weighing, stability and safe load indication, plus additional controllers for digging applications and data capture, the PME aims to combine all of these features in a single module.

Suitable for all makes of machines and capable of working with cranes, telehandlers, excavators, backhoe loaders, concrete, fork lifts and many other types of machine, PME conforms to the Machinery Directive EN15849.

Using Prolec’s existing sensors, the system measures the various parameters of the machine, including depth monitoring, reach and overturn control. In the future PME will also function with both 2D and 3D machine guidance and control systems, providing a completely integrated machine control solution.

  • Mecalac develops crawler rail-road excavator
    April 18, 2012
    Mecalac has introduced a rail-road version of its compact 8MCR crawler excavator. The machine has two sets of hydraulically-lowered rail wheels that use the dozer blade circuit to lift it clear of the tracks. The wheels can be set at 1,000mm, 1,435mm and 1,668mm widths, to suit various European rail networks. Activation of the on-rail function automatically turns on all regulatory lighting, limits the working height of the equipment, limits upper structure rotation and activates a load monitoring system.
