The ATLAS system - Advanced Technology Loading Articulated
Shiplifts - is a PC-based control system that collects
and analyses real-time data from each hoist/lifting
beam during shiplift operations. The results are displayed
at the operator’s workstation, allowing him to
observe, react and control any situations that may arise
during operations.

Features and benefits
- Easy to use Custom Keypad with automatic control
functions.
- Fail safe protection for both the shiplift and
the vessel.
- Analyse and record vessel load information enabling
continuous service record.
- Automatic calculation and display of vessel center
of gravity, torsional loads weight distribution and
platform sheave efficiency.
The introduction of ATLAS transformed the range of
operational uses for Syncrolifts, and is now a standard
feature on all new installations. Many existing customers
have upgraded their Syncrolift® to incorporate the
ATLAS system and benefit from the advantages of the
very latest in shiplift technology.
