Height-dependent charge control
INFORMATION
This function can only be used with MOVIKIT® StackerCrane.
The "Height-dependent charge control" variant of the predictive charge control add-on (PredictiveChargeControl) allows you to change the state of charge of the energy storage unit based on the potential height energy of hoists. The add-on is therefore used with storage and retrieval systems or other lifting equipment that feed large amounts of energy back into the storage system during lowering, and only in conjunction with the MOVIKIT® StackerCrane. The positions of the individual lifting axes are calculated with one another to reduce or increase the required state of charge of the energy storage unit based on the expected amount of regenerated energy. A general reserve is kept available for further drives or travel movements. This function is intended to help adapt the state of charge of the energy storage system specifically to the travel movements, save energy, and reduce the required storage capacity as well as the associated high purchase costs of the storage system.
