Remote control for forestry winches

With remote control from the new Fornax 2S series, you have a very safe and complete remote control system that has been specially developed for use in all conditions. The Fornax 2S is very suitable for heavy industrial or agricultural applications such as forestry. In the Netherlands, the Fornax remote controls are also widely used in, for example, the industrial cleaning sector. In this new generation, the wishes of our end user have been translated into new features. The transmitter is therefore very ergonomically and intuitively designed, equipped with keypad lighting and handy flashlight.

Safety

This Fornax has also been subjected to a series of tests which it passed with flying colors. The Fornax 2S guarantees a good, stable, and safe connection, even in a forest. This Performance Level C remote control is equipped with safety sets, out-of-range protection, and a STOP button that guarantees safe use under all conditions. To anticipate all situations, the Fornax 2S has a response time of <0.1 seconds.

eSTAB

To prevent the tractor from falling over and to ensure optimum safety, eSTAB (Electronic Stability Protection) can be used. This feature is available as an option for all models.

Do not confuse eSTAB with an ordinary tilt sensor, because eSTAB not only protects against tipping of the tractor in both axes but also against slipping and thus also secures the Z-axis – a first!

Equally unique is that eSTAB is integrated into the receiver and therefore no additional module needs to be installed.

The (one-time) calibration of the zero position takes place within a few seconds and ensures unparalleled accuracy.
