State-of-the-art control solutions for your rope winches

Discover PLANETA’s high-quality control systems, which have been specially developed for seamless integration with our electric rope winches, pneumatic rope winches and hydraulic rope winches. Our control systems not only offer maximum safety and convenience, but are also customized and tested in our in-house control system construction department. The result: perfectly coordinated control systems for reliable and efficient operation of your lifting technology.

Customized electric wire rope winch controls

Our electric controls are designed for motor outputs from 0.12 kW to 132 kW and offer a wide range of operating options, including radio control. They can either be wall-mounted or installed directly on the winch. Equipped with a mains disconnect switch, mains connection cable, mains monitoring, motor protection and overload protection, our controls ensure trouble-free operation of your rope winch.

Efficient controls for pneumatic cable winches

The compressed air controls from PLANETA are impressive because of their flexibility and performance. They are suitable for motor outputs from 2 kW to 20 kW and can be operated using a joystick or manual control button. Fixed or variable speeds are just as able as mounting on the wall or directly on the winch. Quiet and smooth operation is possible because of the connection coupling and the silencer.

Safety and service as top priority

In the case of PLANETA lifting technology, safety comes first. Our control systems are equipped with extensive safety mechanisms to ensure reliable operation of your rope winches. Thanks to our in-house development and production, we can guarantee the highest quality standards. Each control unit is extensively tested before delivery and coordinated with the rope winch it is in compliance with to ensure maximum safety.

Our services go far beyond the provision of control systems. We offer comprehensive support, regular maintenance and rapid assistance in the event of faults. Our aim is to enable you to use your lifting technology seamlessly and worry-free.
