Crane Dynamics Technology (CDT™ & CDTplus™) Radio Control Remote System

The Stellar® CDT™ and CDTplus™ (Crane Dynamics Technology) Radio Control System is a proprietary collection of revolutionary, industry first features that control, power, and monitor Stellar® cranes. The Stellar CDT & CDTplus is a combination of a handheld integral capacity alert communication system, a crane boosting feature, and the ability to function in safe mode. Utilizing over molded rubber on the edges and hand grip, this transmitter offers ultimate protection for the heavy use demands of our customers.
CDT™ Remote and Transmitter
Handheld Capacity Alert.
Stellar CDT equipped cranes are the first in the mechanics crane market to offer integral capacity alert into the handheld controller displayed on an LCD screen. This system alerts the operator of increasing loads before they encounter encounter maximum capacity. This alert is performed by visual and sensory indicators built into the Stellar handheld controller. In addition to the LCD notifications, the cyclical vibration increases frequency in the handheld controller to insure the operator operator is aware of the approaching maximum capacity
Crane Boost System.
The crane boost system on Stellar CDT equipped cranes is also an industry first. Through the use of proprietary technology, this new system allows operators who encounter a maximum capacity situation to productively operate by effectively increasing crane capacity to nearly 118% of its normal operating mode for a short period of time. (Boost Mode not available on all crane models)
Enhanced Safety System.
Stellar CDT equipped cranes feature an enhanced safety system. If a device intended to monitor the capacity of the crane operates incorrectly, the crane will put itself into safe mode. Safe mode will allow the operator to work with the crane at a reduced speed until the safety device is in proper working order. The crane will also communicate to the operator if an overload safety device fault is detected.

Crane Boost System.
The crane boost system on Stellar CDTplus equipped cranes is also an industry first. Through the use of proprietary technology, this system allows operators who reach maximum capacity to productively operate through that situation by effectively increasing crane capacity to nearly 118% of its normal operating mode for a short period of time.
Enhanced Safety System.
Stellar CDTplus equipped cranes feature an enhanced safety system. If a device intended to monitor the capacity of the crane operates incorrectly, the crane will put itself into safe mode. Safe mode will allow the operator to work with the crane at a reduced speed to finish the job and store the crane until the safety device is in proper working order. The crane will also communicate through the LCD screen to the operator if an overload safety device fault is detected.
