Radio remote control agreement
22 September 2014
With connection-free radio remote control technology set to continue increasing in popularity, Konecranes, has appointed South Shields-based Industrial Remote Controls as its preferred supplier in the UK.

Using tried and tested technologies that centre on the Ikusi brand, the agreement covers a three-model range of radio remote controls said to be proven in terms of reliability and robustness in any kind of internal or external lifting environment.
Ergonomically designed, the range takes in two slim line handheld units – the 8000 500 and 8000 520 - and the top-of-the-range ‘belly’ Ikoncontrol 3 system.
Whilst the 500 model is a classic control unit for all types of lifting operation, the 520 offers multiple configurations on a compact transmitter.
