Using winches to automate systems offers a level of control and precision that would be unobtainable by even the most skilled operator of a manual system.
Absolute encoders ensure all programs are accurate throughout the entire move, and when repeated are exactly the same.
Each winch has multiple load-cells, slack rope detectors, and various configurable limits for travel and speed. Meaning that however the winches are configured, there are multiple systems guaranteeing the safe operation of every move.
