Boom Truck Load Moment Indicator

The Boom Truck Load Moment Indicator (LMI) is an essential safety feature installed in boom trucks to oversee the lifting of heavy loads. It offers real-time feedback to operators, alerting them to prevent overloading and maintain a safe working environment. By promptly notifying operators if they exceed safe limits, the LMI ensures that lifting operations remain efficient while prioritizing the safety of personnel and equipment. 

In construction and industrial sectors, where heavy lifting is routine, the Boom Truck LMI serves as a cornerstone of safety protocol. Its ability to prevent accidents and optimize lifting operations enhances productivity while mitigating risks. With its seamless integration into boom trucks, this system provides operators with the confidence to execute tasks knowing they have a reliable safety net, thus ensuring smooth and secure lifting operations on job sites. 

Components of Boom Truck LMI

Display & Control Unit

This unit serves as the central interface for the Side Boom Truck LMI, providing operators with real-time data on load moments and allowing them to control the system's functions.

Length and Angle Sensor

This sensor accurately measures the length and angle of the boom on the side boom truck, crucial for calculating load moments and ensuring safe lifting operations.

Load Cell

Integrated into the lifting mechanism, the load cell precisely measures the weight of the load being lifted, providing essential data to the LMI system for analysis.

A2B Switch

The Anti-Two-Block switch is a safety feature that prevents the crane from overextending by halting movement when the hoist line reaches a specific point.

Cables & Installation Kit

These components include the necessary cables and equipment for the installation of the Side Boom Truck LMI system, ensuring seamless integration and functionality.

Features of Boom Truck LMI

The boom truck Load Moment Indicator (LMI) features a durable 5.6-inch LCD screen, designed for industrial use with sunlight visibility and adjustable brightness for all-weather operation. 

Providing precise and accurate load display readings, the LMI ensures efficient and safe crane operations by minimizing errors. 

Equipped with advanced anti-interference technology, the LMI guarantees stable performance even in environments with electromagnetic interference. 

Operators can customize additional functions with the optional multi-channel sensor input interface, tailoring the system to specific operational needs. 

Simplified setup and calibration save time and mounting costs, ensuring quick installation and configuration. 

Data is automatically saved during power outages, preserving critical information and ensuring data integrity. 

Understanding the Functionalities of Boom Truck LMI

The boom truck Load Moment Indicator (LMI) functions by utilizing sensors to monitor critical aspects such as the length of the crane arm, the weight of the load, and the angle of the crane. These sensors transmit data to a central computer, which then analyzes whether the crane is operating within safe parameters or if there’s a risk of tipping over. If any issues are detected, the system notifies the crane operator promptly, allowing them to take corrective action to maintain safety. Essentially, it’s like a smart helper that watches over the crane to prevent accidents and keep everyone safe.
