TOWER CRANES Ӏ REMOTE OPERATION


UK FIRST


David Elson is senior operations manager at Winvic. “Skyline Cockpit has been used on European projects,” he says, “and Winvic is the first main contractor in the UK to utilise the technology. The project had already commenced and the tower crane already erected when the opportunity arose to partner with Skyline Cockpit, so the cameras were installed on the tower crane in situ. We undertook a 12-week trial period to evaluate the safety, wellbeing and efficiency benefits, and the successful results lead to


Winvic choosing to maintain the remote tower crane technology at Crown Place Birmingham through to the scheme’s completion.”


The Skyline


Cockpit on the ground offers panoramic views in comfort


MULTIPLE BENEFITS There are obvious advantages to the Skyline Cockpit system – not least saving the operator from isolation and making their working day more pleasant – but there are others as well... “Health, safety and wellbeing


are of paramount importance to Winvic,” says Elson, “but we are also continually exploring new technologies in all areas


because innovation is in the company’s DNA. Sometimes safety is the driver, or it could be for sustainability, quality or efficiency purposes. With Skyline Cockpit it was evident there were many benefits that met our aims, particularly on a site as compact and a building as tall as Crown Place Birmingham. “The multiple cameras with 40 per cent zoom give our crane operators enhanced vision capacities and remove blind spots, and the array of real-time data on the panoramic screens accelerate safety-first decision making.
