Wolffkran Unveils Game-Changing Wireless Crane Control at bauma 2025

At bauma 2025, crane manufacturer Wolffkran has unveiled a major breakthrough in wireless crane operation with the world premiere of WOLFF Intuitive Control — a cutting-edge system that simplifies crane handling by shifting focus from crane mechanics to direct load movement. 

Traditionally, wireless crane operation required skilled coordination of slewing, trolley, and hoisting motions, while mentally converting directional commands based on the crane’s perspective. WOLFF Intuitive Control eliminates this complexity by using a Cartesian movement system, allowing operators to guide loads in the intended direction effortlessly — push forward, and the load moves forward, regardless of the crane's orientation. 

The system features a wearable ergonomic remote control, offering hands-free operation and greater mobility on-site. A WOLFF Cam display can be integrated into the unit, ensuring optimal visibility. Notably, the innovation is exclusive to wireless control, leaving cabin-based operation unchanged. 

Developed entirely in-house by Wolffkran, WOLFF Intuitive Control is patent-pending and designed to outperform existing “intuitive” systems, which often suffer from calibration issues and measurement instability. It is available as an option for new WOLFF cranes, a retrofit for existing models, or an upgrade to the WOLFF HiSPS system. 

Visitors to bauma can test the new system in a virtual reality simulation, offering a realistic experience of intuitive load control from the ground. 

With this launch, Wolffkran sets a new benchmark for precision, safety, and ease-of-use in tower crane operation.

NHAI Plans Link Road for Expressway Access

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is evaluating the construction of an 18 km road to connect the Bengaluru-Chennai Expressway, within Karnataka, to the Bengaluru-Kolar Highway (NH 75). This strategic link is aimed at improving connectivity for motorists travelling towards the Andhra Pradesh border, including destinations like Chittoor and Tirupati. Currently, a 68 km section of the expressway — from Hoskote to Bethamangala near Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) — is operational. However, due to the absence of seamless end-to-end connectivity, users are forced to navigate through narr..

Bengaluru to Get 40-Km Signal-Free Transit Corridor

In a major push to modernize Bengaluru’s transport infrastructure, the Karnataka Government has approved the construction of a 32.15 km double-decker flyover with a metro line along the city’s Outer Ring Road. This transformative initiative aims to ease the daily commute for thousands and provide lasting relief from the city's chronic traffic congestion. In tandem, an additional 8 km elevated stretch will be constructed on Magadi Road as part of Namma Metro’s Phase III expansion. Together, these projects will add over 40 km of new, signal-free metro routes—making daily travel faster, ..
