MaXine: Safe and Efficient Control at High Sea States

Hoisting and lowering a load under maritime conditions entails dealing with peak forces stemming from the oscillations of the waves. This challenge has prompted IHC Motion Control to design the MaXine: a new development based on the offshore load and tension system (OLTS) built in 2006.

MaXine reduces peak forces and fluctuations during lifting and lowering operations where waves are generating oscillating movements. This allows you to work longer at high sea states, minimise your downtime and extend your weather window. MaXine keeps the rope taut at all times and reduces both the peaks and troughs by following the motion of the sea. This allows work to proceed safely, efficiently and in a controlled manner.
