Spinning loads in helicopter and crane lifts can pose significant risks to personnel, equipment, and the environment. A spinning load occurs when the load rotates or twists on its axis during the lift, often caused by an unbalanced load or improper rigging. These loads can cause the aircraft to become unstable, the load to collide with objects or personnel, and …
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology is used to produce high-resolution maps and 3D models of the earth’s surface. This technology sends laser pulses to the ground and measures the time it takes for the laser light to bounce back, creating a high-resolution map of the surface. LiDAR surveys are used in a variety of applications, including mapping, archaeology, forestry, …
Proper rigging equipment is essential for any helicopter lift project. The use of helicopter lifts is becoming increasingly popular in a variety of industries such as construction, oil and gas, and disaster relief. It allows for the safe and efficient transportation of heavy loads over large distances and in difficult to access areas. However, without the use of proper rigging …
