ExpertCare is a Verlinde smartphone application. In which you can download via Andriod and IOS. It enables the remote display of information starting from the floor level of the MT2. It monitors the electronic module of Euro Bloc VT wire rope hoist, which are mounted on overhead cranes.
The immediate advantages of ExpertCare application are partly the simplicity of the tool that allows the display of information on the user's smartphone or tablet. Meanwhile, the operator stays at the floor level. Other advantages include saving resources because the use of the inspection platform is ipso facto no longer required for such a simple inspection.
The system is made up of:
A dongle that enables reading the MT2 data from the floor. The wireless communication range between the dongle and a reading device is 15m as standard or 50m with an external antenna.
Running the application on a smartphone or a tablet.
The ExpertCare application enables the monitoring of:
Faults and alarms.
The remaining lifespan of the hoist, brake and contactors.
Display of load, MT2 internal temperature and the operating time.

VERLINDE has always been among the first companies to introduce new ideas for the innovation of hoisting units with a hook (more than 70 patents taken out in France and around the world). The new EUROBLOC VT electric wire rope hoist has been created within this avant-garde spirit, as it accounts for a total of 13 patents on its own.
The Euro Bloc VT is the only hoisting unit with wire rope and a hook that offers many great features, such as:
Hook approach. The smallest available distances of the hoist are C and F dimensions.
The pulley block presents only a slight lateral shift during hoisting motion (virtually vertical lifting)
Adjusting speed while travelling.
