Abstract: In order to solve the problems of traditional tower cranes, such as low operating efficiency, hidden dangers in operation safety, and difficulties in tower crane maintenance, the intelligent tower crane was studied, and the key technologies required for the intellectualization of tower cranes were discussed. Firstly, the concept of intelligent tower crane was proposed, and the development history of tower crane in all aspects of technology was summarized and analyzed. Then, the key technologies that should be available for intelligent tower crane were proposed, and simultaneous localization and mapping(SLAM)technology, real time dynamic (RTK) positioning technology, fault diagnosis technology and cloud supervision platform were applied to intelligent tower crane. Finally, combining with the proposed key technologies of intelligent tower crane, the framework of the intelligent tower crane automation operation system was proposed, the intelligent tower crane automation operation system was defined and modularized, at the same time, each module subsystem in the system framework was described and analyzed in detail, emphasizing that the automation operation system mainly depended on the key technologies. The research results show that the tower crane is developing towards intelligence and automation, the core of the research is the key technology of intelligent tower crane and the framework of automatic operation system.
Key words: intelligent tower crane; simultaneous localization and mapping(SLAM); map building technology; fixed point hoisting technology; real time dynamic (RTK) positioning technology; fault diagnosis technology; automatic operation system; hook path planning
