Servo Systems Intelligent Assist Devices (IAD) KNIGHT GLOBAL CREATING A NEW STANDARD Servo Technology Improves Productivity with Speed and Precision VER. 01/12
Knight Servo Systems Knight Servo Systems are Intelligent Assist Devices (IAD) that provide controlled transfers of workloads with speed, precision, quality and unmatched reliability. Its various programmability allows for many application solutions. Traditional hoists and tractors require the operator to push buttons in order to initiate a natural ergonomic motion. Servo Systems enable an operator to simply grasp the handle and move the load, eliminating push buttons. As an extension of an operator s natural movement, this technology greatly improves accuracy, responsiveness and repeatability; which increases safety, productivity and motions, lagging reaction time, and the removal of inertia on heavy loads. KSH Servo Hoist Enables the operator to precisely direction. Lift Range up to: 2000 lbs (Reeved) KSHTCDM Servo Hoist Twin Chain Dual Motor The Twin Chain Servo will control long parts.

Servo System Controls SERVO CONTROL SERIES Knight servo system control handles are designed to ensure an ergonomically correct position for the operator while maintaining full control of the load. Servo Programmable servo control handles can be customized to accommodate each applications requirements. Servo control handles are inline intuitive tools that need little to no-worker training. The control handle provides instantaneous touch response; just grab the handle and go. EBA1165 Analog (LMM) Load Monitoring Module with (OCI) Operator Controlled Interface This inline mounted Analog Short Stack is used in applications when an inline control handle is not a practical solution. It is fully programmable with programming port. Available (LMM) Pass through Connection. Includes illuminated LED Lights for Lift and Float modes and a Safety Run-Stop Button. EBA1054 EBA9100 Wireless Remote and Receiver Compact, light and rugged wireless remote unit used for material handling and industrial applications. The and programmed to simulate the control functionality of a Knight Remote Pendant Control Handle. Includes: Two [2] remote transmitters and one [1] receiver unit. Two Speed Pendant The Knight Dual Speed Pendant control handle is a non-programmable handle which is an electrically powered pendant which allows for a (2) two speed operation by simply compressing the thumb lever push buttons. (Available in a Single or Two Speed option) Note: Two-Speed Remote Pendant Shown. Remote Two Speed Handle with Operator Control Interface (OCI) This Dual Speed Pendant control handle can be mounted separately from the end of the chain, on a EBA1080 SAFETY FEATURES Load Cell Fixture Handle for push buttons. The UP/DOWN and directional motion is initiated by grasping anywhere on the responsive feature. Note: Custom handles not included Scan For More Detailed Information www.knight-ind.com/servo_acs.htm SERVO HOIST AND TRACTOR HOIST: Overload Capability If load parameters exceed programmed capacity, the hoist will not engage until the load is removed. This safety feature prevents an operator from loading or transferring more weight than the allowable system rating. I/O Interlocks Programmed I/O Interlocks will prevent the unintentional release of loads while in transfer. It interfaces with the load sensor, which continuously monitors the load. EBA1063 EBA1167 DBA1033 the operator to control over-sized and cumbersome loads while maneuvering them into tight spaces. Includes: illuminated LED lights for Lift and Float modes and a Safety Run-Stop Button. Analog Inline This Analog Inline control handle is mounted inline of the chain. It is equipped with a 500lb Grip Sensor and either a 750lb or 2000lb load sensor with built in on the handle grip can be accurately detected, resulting in a smooth, and responsive reaction. Includes illuminated LED lights for the Lift and Float mode operation and a Safety Run-Stop Button. Digital LCD Inline This Microprocessor based control handle will display information such as weights, error codes, diagnostics, set-up, etc. on an LCD screen. The addition of an accelerometer isolates inertial forces resulting from vibration within the system. The operators movement and force can be more accurately detected, resulting in a smoother, more responsive reaction. Includes Lift and Float mode push buttons and a Safety Run-Stop Button. Fail-Safe Brake In the event of a power outage, or when the run/stop button is pushed; a fail-safe braking system engages to hold the unit in place. The system is halted until power is restored. No re-setting required. Load Sensing A built-in load sensing function allows the device to adjust dynamically as load capacity changes. Movement Interrupt Cycle If moving in an auto-mode cycle, the Servo System will automatically stop if an obstacle or operator crosses its path. SERVO CONTROLS: Handle Photo-Eye (Inline Handles Only) Incorporated into the handle grip, the Photo-Eye will prevent unintended movement of the servo system. It senses the operators hand placement on the control handle and activates the servo system. When the operator removes hand from the handle control, the servo system will deactivate. Illuminated Run/Stop Button The Run/Stop Button is a manually operated push button switch located on the control handle. When pushed it activates the Fail-Safe Braking System and deactivates the servo system, it will hold it in place until the power is restored. Run/Stop Button illuminates visually indicating when the system is in a RUN/STOP or fault condition.
