A NEW system for Chassis and Straddle Carriers The ITS LoadVIEW system allows the driver of a truck or Straddle Carrier to view the vehicle in relation to the stopping position. It is an electronically augmented birds eye view. Unlike most systems, with LoadVIEW the driver gets a real time view of the container or vehicle in relation to the stopping position. Most existing systems use a light or series of lights to show the driver the stopping point making it difficult to judge the exact position. The LoadVIEW system allows the driver to adjust his speed to suit as he is able to see the exact distance to the stopping point. With LoadVIEW he doesn't have to look sideways to the crane, he can look forward with obvious safety benefits. Strategically mounted cameras on the portal beam capture images from under the crane.

The stopping line can be adjusted for position and thickened or reduced to optimise the settings. LoadVIEW is rapid to implement and very cost effective. It does not require an external operator and can be configured to load and unload any combination of containers; 20', 40', 45', twin 20s. The system can even align 2 empty or loaded chassis side by side simultaneously for a Tandem lift, and can also position empty chassis with twistlocks. The LoadVIEW system does this without additional hardware or an operator or complex, expensive software. LoadVIEW works by positioning cameras on the crane pointed at the loading area both under the crane and in the back reach. Target markers are overlaid on the image and the composite image transmitted to the vehicle driver. The driver has a wireless display and selector enabling him to display the images from the appropriate crane.     Typical drivers view of the 20' screen with the chassis positioning on the twistlocks Typical drivers view of the 20' screen with the load being positioned on the corner castings Typical drivers view of a split 20/40 screen LoadVIEW datasheet   Click here to request datasheet View/Download datasheet Note: approx. 3 mins download over 56k dialup.
