Radio Control Solutions

As the UK exclusive partner to Hetronic, we offer a comprehensive range of radio control systems that comply with international safety standards.

What is industrial radio control?

By definition radio control is the use of control signals transmitted by radio to remotely control a device. Within industrial sectors radio control has many applications. These usually revolve around the teleoperation of heavy machinery, sometimes in hazardous environments where operator safety is paramount, or where manual control is simply impractical or inefficient. Increasingly radio control is used to assist in the automation of computer controlled mobile hydraulic applications, where human operator input is minimal or the control relays required are complex.

For point-to-point communication, Hydrastore can supply field bus communication receivers for almost any application. Specific bus interfaces can be matched to most mobile hydraulic systems.

At the most basic level, radio control consists of two fundamentals:

The Transmitter

The control unit that, when triggered, sends commands as a radio signal is the radio control transmitter. This can sometimes be handheld, or part of a fixed terminal.

The Receiver

An antenna which receives the radio signals and then interpreted by the circuit board is the radio control receiver. These commands, once verified trigger action from the connected system.

Radio control solutions

Radio control transmitters, and complimenting receivers, exist for practically every mobile hydraulic control challenge imaginable. Off-the-shelf radio control solutions will provide the answer to a large majority of application demands. Equally customised radio control solutions can be developed to meet more specialised and unique mobile hydraulic requirements.

Amongst the radio control transmitter solutions which can be supplied by Hydrastore are the Belly Box transmitters. This is carried by an operator and is either fastened to their waist or held in two hands to aid productivity.

Similarly the harness style has fittings so the transmitter can be shoulder mounted. This increases both the safety and comfort of the operator by reducing fatigue whilst out on site.
