- Practical and attractive due to Functional Design
P-Fold
P-Fold is a PALFINGER assistance system. It makes folding and unfolding an easy job for the operator. The P-Fold system also works in combination with the innovative RTC (Rope Tension Control). Both systems perfectly support the crane’s set-up processes and thus reduce set-up times to a minimum.
Continuous Slewing System
The PALFINGER Continuous Slewing Mechanism permits an unrestricted radius of action. The crane is rotated or 'slewed' using a gear box and hydraulic motor instead of a rack and pinion system. All endless slewing mechanisms come as standard with a high quality roller ball bearing.

AOS
PRODUCT FEATURES
The patented PALFINGER "AOS" oscillation suppression system cancels out vibrations and blows that occur during crane operation. Any "post-oscillation" is prevented through rapid braking or load changes. The result is a decisive increase to safety in crane operation for employees, the load and building.
HOW IT WORKS
The electronics receive signals from pressure sensors on both sides of the elevating cylinder and interpret them as arm vibrations. The signals for the counter-movement of the elevating cylinder are handled by the control valve. The incurred vibration can be cancelled through the exactly determined frequency and wavelength. The result is damping of the arm to just one or two short vibrations so that the arm comes to an immediate standstill.

HPSC
PRODUCT FEATURES
The High Performance Stability Control (HPSC) is a fully proportional system for monitoring the stability of the crane vehicle. Sensors for proportional path measurement in the stabilizer supports permit completely variable support positioning. Hence, the permissible, safe working range can be calculated for any support situation.
HOW IT WORKS
The HPSC system calculates the permissible working range for any slewing angle of the boom system and for any support situation. The position of the stabilizer support is detected by means of a cable extension transducer or magnetostrictive position sensor. Based on the intelligent calculation algorithm developed by PALFINGER, it works more efficiently than comparable systems that are available in the market.
SRC
The SRC system maintains a constant distance between the pulley head and the hook block during operation of the rope winch. Similarly to the RTC, the system automatically adjusts the rope length. The key advantage in practice is that loads can be traversed horizontally at a constant height without the operator having to adjust the rope winch. In addition, it is also possible to traverse the load at a constant angle on the rope winch. Work in buildings or tight spaces become child’s play, and difficult operations like overcoming building contours during roofing work are also made significantly easier. This advantage is particularly valuable in terms of ease of use for the operator, and it also noticeably improves the efficiency of any assignment. In addition, the risk of damage to the rope and load, but also collisions between the hook block and the pulley head will be avoided.

HPSC Plus
PALFINGER has continued development of the well-proven stability control system HPSC and is offering additional application-orientated functions in a modular system. Three modules which are available on their own as well as combined, turn HPSC into HPSC-Plus. In this way, the stability control system can be adapted to the current situation and ensure an optimal performance.

DPS-C
DPS-C enables an increase of lifting power in the cases of fully as well as partly extended crane booms. A length measuring system identifies the current position of the extension booms and the fly jib. In that way, the performance can be optimised across the entire outreach.
