JUNE 20249TOP STORIESKEY TECHNOLOGIES FOR MODERN OVERHEAD CRANES: ENHANCING SAFETY & EFFICIENCYNETWEB TECHNOLOGIES TO LAUNCHAMDSERVERSIN INDIAOverhead cranes are a crucial component in various industrial operations, responsible for the efficient and safe handling of heavy materials. As technology advances, overhead cranes are becoming more sophisticated, incorporating features that significantly enhance their performance, safety, and efficiency.Advanced Control SystemsOne of the most significant advancements in overhead crane technology is the development of advanced control systems. Traditional cranes relied heavily on manual operation, which was prone to human error. Modern cranes, however, are equipped with sophisticated control systems that offer precise and automated control over lifting and movement.Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)PLCs are at the heart of modern crane control systems. These devices allow for precise control of the crane's movements, including speed, direction, and load handling. PLCs can be programmed to execute complex lifting sequences, ensuring smooth and safe operations.Remote Control & AutomationRemote control technology has revolutionized crane operations by allowing operators to control the crane from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of accidents and enhances operational efficiency. Additionally, automation systems enable cranes to perform repetitive tasks without human intervention, increasing productivity and reducing the likelihood of human error. In particular, double girder overhead travelling cranes, which work in special environments such as steel mills and waste incineration plants, have higher requirements for automation and remote control. In a boost to the 'Make in India' initiative, Netweb Technologies has announced the launch of a new range of AMD-based servers from its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Faridabad. These servers, equipped with the latest 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors, are designed to support up to 6TB of memory, catering to the high-performance computing needs of data centers and AI systems.Sanjay Lodha, CEO of Netweb Technologies, highlighted the strategic significance of this launch: "This range of servers underscores our commitment to the `Make in India' mission and showcases our capability to produce world-class technology domestically. The focus on local manufacturing reflects our investment in Indian talent and resources and emphasizes our dedication to developing advanced computing infrastructure for both government and private sectors".The announcement follows the recent inauguration of Netweb's high-end computing, storage, and switch manufacturing facility in Faridabad. The facility aims to produce cutting-edge computing systems using the latest technologies from Netweb's partners, including Intel, Nvidia, and AMD.Vinay Sinha, Corporate Vice President of AMD India Sales, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration: "We are thrilled to support Netweb Technologies with our latest 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors. This partnership exemplifies our commitment to driving technology and innovation forward".This development is expected to strengthen India's position in the global technology landscape, enhancing the country's capability to produce high-performance computing solutions locally, while supporting Netweb's vision of fostering indigenous technological advancements.
