Original Press Release:
Dynamic Positioning System
TR Electronic is pleased to release their new posiTRax system. posiTRax is a dynamic, laser-based positioning system designed for cranes, rack feeders, carriage systems and other rail-bound vehicles and material handling systems. With easy-to-use software and full compatibility with other vendor's discontinued systems (such as the ICS-5000), the posiTRax provides for seamless integration.
By providing adaptive software that learns crane or vehicle movements and positioning, the posiTRax generates a reference curve to model the correct position. posiTRax provides full closed-loop feedback for up to 4 axes and like its predecessors , provides the ideal solution for fast and safe, synchronous operation.
As a company first, TR Electronic is offering a product upgrade and trade-in program for organizations that have legacy based dynamic positioning systems and are looking for a plug-in replacement. Program details are available at http://trelectronic.com/positraxform.php.
