AUSTRALIA'S
'LIFTING LEGEND'
EVOLVING TODAY'S CONSTRUCTION
FOR TOMORROW'S INFRASTRUCTURE
The Vita™ Load Navigator®
The Vita Load Navigator (VLN) is an active high-power propulsion system that provides crane operators and riggers with precision control over suspended loads. By using high-speed thrusters to counteract external forces, the system eliminates the need for manual taglines and ensures loads remain stable regardless of environmental conditions.
how erne & vln are changing the game
‘Hands Off’ Lifting
Eliminate "line of fire" risks for riggers, aligning with Tier 1 Global Safety Standards for exclusion zone integrity.
Weather Resilience
Enable safe lifting in wind conditions that typically ground operations, ensuring strict program certainty.
Operational Efficiency
Current NSW Government data (Penrith Stadium) shows a 40% increase in daily lift cycles through instant stabilisation.
Sustainability
Lower diesel consumption and project carbon footprints by minimising crane hours and rework requirements.
Seamless Integration
Compatible with all Tier 1 crane fleets; zero modifications to existing configurations required.
"With the addition of the erne (VLN), the plats are just flying in."
John Holland Case Study.
40% Increase in Lift Rates.
John Holland eliminated taglines and crane downtime at Penrith Stadium. Implementation of hands-off operations through Autonomous Repeatability increased output from 8 lifts to a consistent 13 lifts per shift.
Primary Driver: Zero-Contact Safety & Wind Resilience protocols.
VLN Video Showcase
7 Minutes of multi-site footage demonstrating autonomous precision across Tier‑1 industrial environments.
Industries we empower.
Renewable Energy
Precise orientation for wind turbine blade installation. Counteracts high-altitude shear winds for safer bolting.
Civil & Infrastructure
Optimised for Stadiums, railways and bridge segments. Millimetre-perfect placement in urban corridors without taglines.
Resources & Mining
Streamline plant shutdowns. Control components from 182m, keeping personnel clear of the drop zone.
Transport & Logistics
Revolutionising port efficiency. Stabilise containers and oversized freight instantly in high-throughput environments.
Construction
Eliminate human error in steel erection and modular assembly. Engineered controls that standardise high-risk Tier 1 lifts.
Oil & Gas
Eliminate manual taglines in high-risk offshore environments. Engineered stabilisation for heavy modules in volatile conditions.
