Cranes
Hetronic Radio Remote Control systems are engineered to meet the complex demands of a wide spectrum of crane applications—ranging from mobile and overhead cranes to lattice boom and telescopic configurations. Our systems provide operators with enhanced mobility, operational safety, and precise control, even in the most challenging environments.
​
As a pioneer in the industry, Hetronic was among the first to introduce proportional control technology and graphical feedback displays—setting new standards for remote control functionality. Our latest innovation, Video Feedback integration in the NOVA Series, enables operators to maintain visual situational awareness, even when working remotely from the machine.
​
Every Hetronic system is built to withstand extreme operating conditions—from high-vibration mobile applications to temperature- and moisture-variant environments—ensuring reliable performance in any Canadian extreme.
Our transmitter portfolio includes an extensive range of next-generation human-machine interface (HMI) components, such as:
-
High-visibility color graphic displays for real-time system status
-
Dual-and triple-axis proportional joysticks for multidimensional control
-
Single-axis paddle levers for fine motor adjustments
-
Configurable pushbutton arrays
-
Sealed toggle and rotary switches for harsh environments
-
Integrated tilt and motion sensors for operator safety and intuitive control
-
Proximity sensors for auto-activation and zone-aware operation
Hetronic radio remote control systems are engineered to meet the diverse demands of crane operations.
Whether managing a high-rise lift or a roadside delivery, operators benefit from precision control, enhanced safety, and the freedom to position themselves exactly where visibility and awareness are optimal. Rugged transmitters with proportional joysticks, toggle switches, and emergency-stop capabilities provide smooth, responsive control, while real-time feedback on load or boom angle supports confident, accurate handling.
​
Designed for the harshest environments, Hetronic systems feature impact-resistant housings and high ingress protection ratings (IP65/IP67), ensuring dependable performance in dust, rain, and vibration-heavy conditions. Frequency agility and advanced interference mitigation make them ideal for complex urban jobsites and congested RF environments. Every control unit is fully customizable—allowing operators to tailor layout and function to the crane type and specific job requirements.
​
For mobile applications, Hetronic empowers single-operator productivity with intuitive belly-pack or hand-held transmitters that are clearly labeled and tactile, even with gloves. Real-time diagnostics via onboard displays help monitor system health on the move, while configurable control logic enables seamless management of hydraulic functions, outriggers, winches, and more. Trusted across construction, utility, and emergency response sectors, Hetronic helps crane operators work safer, faster, and with greater confidence.
