Recently, an automatic crane control system is required with high speed and rapid transportation. During the operation of crane system in container yard it is necessary to control the crane trolley position and loop length so that the swing of the hanging container is minimized We can do development of unmanned automation control system using automation travel control technique and anti-sway technique in crane system. Therefore, we designed a controller for Automation travel control to control the transfer crane system. Analyzed crane system through simulation, and proved excellency of control performance than other conventional controllers.

Automatic control systems for warehouse composed of unmanned crane system and vision system. Unmanned crane system is introduced to reject oscillations of a load suspended from a trolley at a moment of its arrival at its target position. And vision system is applied to find out the coordinates of coils on trucks using image processing.

This paper introduces an Integrated Vision System that enables us to detect the image of slabs and coils and get the complete three dimensional location data without any other obstacles in the field of unmanned-crane automation system. Existing vision system research tends to be easily influenced by the environment of the work place and therefore cannot give the exact location information. To overcome these weaknesses, this paper suggests laser scanners should be combined with a CCD camera named Integrated Vision System. The suggested system is expected to help improve the unmanned-crane automation system.

In automatization of a warehouse for plate products, the selecting control of the number of steel plates to be lifted by a lifting magnet crane and the roller table control of steel plates being transported on are indispensible key technolgies. POSCO had developed these elementary technologies for the product warehouse of the plate mill in Pohang Works and succeeded in making the operation of the large-scale warehouse for plate products.

Crane operation is manually accomplished by skilled operators. Recently, the concept of automation is widely introduced in shipping and unloading operation using the overhead crane for the enhanced productivity. In this regards, we designed an angle detector and 3D position detectro which are key evices for this operation. As well as an intellignet control algorithm is developed for the implementation of swing free crane. The performance of the presented algorithm is tested for the swing angle and the position of the overheas crand. The control scheme adopts a feedback control of an angular velocity of swing in initial phase and then the fuzzy controller whose rule base is optimized by a genetic algorithm.

Recently, the concept of automation is widely in shipping and unloading materials using the overhead crane for the enhanced productivity. In this regards, we designed an overhead crane that can be operated by operated by computer control system and installed this system at KAERI. In this paper, we introduce algorithms to find the 3D position, diameter, width, and rotated angle of objects such as drum, coil, and container. And the performance of the presented algorithms is tested using drum and container. The result will be useful for positoning grapple device such as spreader to objects in order to automatically grasp them.

In cargo-working, it unavoidably happens that the quay crane slip along the rail and the container move from side to side. Especially, they involve a lot of risk in bad weather. The rail clamp is a mooring device to prevent that the quay crane slips along the rail due to bad weather or the wind blast while the quay crane do the cargo-working And it will play a greater role in port container terminal integration and automation To design the wedge type rail clamp, it is very important to determine the wedge angle. In this study, we expect that the design wind speed of the quay crane will change over 16m/s. Assuming that the design wind speed is 40m/s, we determined the proper wedge angle of the wedge type rail clamp for the 50ton class quay crane.

The container crane is still operated by skillfull human operators. So an automatic crane operation system is strongly required. In this paper, the digital control method is applied to position an anti-swing control for container crane. Two methods of digital optimal regulator control and digital redesign control are used for experiment. From these experimental results, it is respected that both methods can be applied effectively to an actual container crane operation.

In other side the recent construction industry is a skyscraper, a large scale and a sophistication, a construct site have many problems that an aging of worker and shortage of work force. The purpose of this study was to develop the location of tower crane and the simulation technology of tover crane. The automation of tower carne is a important component in skyscrapers. Specially, this study suggested that it was to develop the exact location system through GPS(Global Positioning System) better than former times.

Material handling equipment such as container cranes and transtainer cranes have made larger and faster to improve the efficiency of container handling. As conditions of use in container terminal have become severe, and also the automation level required has become higher. For the high level automation for transtainer crane, the following characteristics have to be developed 1) Container Terminal Operation & Planning System with high efficiency. 2)Autosteering System of transtainer crane with precise position sensing system using image processing and feedback control system. 3)Automatic Position Identification System with transponder. We have developed an AGSS(Automatic Gantry Steering System) of transtainer crane with image processing technology preferentially. In this paper, the system will be introduced.
