Zoomlion's Pilot 5G Tower Crane Remote Intelligent Control System Completes Its First Hoisting Task Globally
ZHENGZHOU, China, Aug. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire-Asianet/ --

Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co., Ltd. ("Zoomlion"; 1157.HK) 
successfully demonstrated its 5G tower crane remote control system (the 
"System") on June 25 in Zhengzhou, China, and completed its first ever hoisting 
on the construction of Zhengzhou Jiangshan School.

Installed remotely and intelligently, the System was developed based on 
Zoomlion's unmanned tower crane project with the support of the advanced 5G 
technology of Henan Telecom. The System enables remote intelligent control, 
which replaces previous operations at high-altitudes or ground level. It has 
filled the gap in remote intelligent hoisting of tower cranes, promoted tower 
crane restoration, modified the construction method, improved the operator's 
working environment and reduced labor intensity to guarantee personal safety. 

The System consists of four cutting-edge systems:

-All-around video surveillance system: it realizes all-around and multi-angle 
observation of the crane's movement and surrounding area (including blind 
spots), which improves operation convenience and ensures construction safety; 
-Visualized intelligent tracking system of the tower crane hook: composed of 
infrared cameras and digital sensing equipment, this system improves hoisting 
accuracy and effectively reduces hidden safety hazards during the hoisting 
process; 
-Digital tower crane status monitoring system: the different sensors can 
monitor and display all parameters including boom height, wind speed, 
temperature and humidity and can predict motion trail to avoid danger and 
protect the operator's safety; 
-Anti-collision and intelligent dispatch system: it utilizes the low latency 
and stability of the 5G network, adopts binocular cameras and combines AI and 
computer vision technologies to achieve obstacle detection within 10 meters of 
the hook. 

Driven by Zoomlion's "Product 4.0A" strategy, the company has successfully 
applied 5G technology to tower cranes, cranes, pump trucks and excavators, and 
the intelligent upgrades of the company's production lines and intelligent 
factories.

In the future Zoomlion will ceaselessly work with top 5G companies to 
accelerate its digital transformation and upgrading in a bid to build 
world-class smart factories and further promote intelligent upgrades of its 
products.
