Chief Executive of National Oceanography Centre Receives CBE
Scantrol AHC News – Cylinder Application Now Available in mTrack
When mTrack was released last year, it had winch, crane, and LARS applications pre-programmed and ready for configuration by our customers.
The National Oceanography Centre’s Chief Executive, Prof Ed Hill, has been awarded a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours 2020 list, in recognition of his services to ocean and environmental sciences.
Ed is a world-leading authority on ocean science and is dedicated to raising awareness of ocean issues and advancing the science and technology to understand our seas. Having been part of the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) for over 20 years, he has recently led the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) into an independent charity, using its freedom and scientific expertise to drive forward greater innovation and influence.
Commenting, Ed Hill, said, “I am delighted and honoured to receive this award, which I feel is also recognition of the tremendous journey the National Oceanography Centre has been taking as a force for good all over the world. I am grateful for the help and support of my family, friends and colleagues throughout my career and remain dedicated to raising the profile of the vital role the ocean plays in our world.
Due to the excellent reception mTrack has received by the market (21 systems delivered so far this year), the application areas for mTrack is continuously expanding, and the cylinder Active Heave Compensation (AHC) application is now released.
By having applications in mTrack instead of re-programming complex functionality to match the operation and lifting equipment, we can provide our customers with the proven Scantrol AHC functionality in a risk-free manner.
With this approach to AHC, we can safely say that mTrack can be used to achieve AHC on all relevant lifting equipment, both now and in the future.
mTrack includes tools to simplify testing and commissioning. It also includes an integrated MRU that measures the vessel’s movement and uses Scantrol’s proven AHC technology to control the winch or cylinder to eliminate vessel motion being transferred to the load.
In addition to Scantrol’s proven AHC control functions, mTrack includes tools to streamline the design, commissioning, and operations of your application.
