Construction

Construction sites demand safe, predictable, and efficient lifting. Vita Load Navigator eliminates guesswork, reduces downtime, and keeps every lift under control.

Why construction needs VLN

Construction projects involve constant movement of materials, tight schedules, and high-risk environments. VLN provides real-time load control, reducing manual handling and improving safety around cranes, live edges, and congested sites.

Key VLN features for construction

  • Precise load positioning in congested environments
  • Reduced dependency on tag-lines and manual intervention
  • Improved safety around live edges, scaffolds, and structure frames
  • Faster lifts with fewer corrections and resets

Infrastructure

Large-scale civil works rely on repeatable, precise lifts. VLN delivers reliable control across bridges, rail, utilities, and public works.

Infrastructure hero image

Why infrastructure needs VLN

Infrastructure projects involve long spans, complex geometry, and strict safety requirements. Uncontrolled movement increases risk to people, assets, and the public. VLN reduces swing, rotation, and alignment delays.

Key VLN features for infrastructure

  • Stabilisation for long or awkward beams and segments
  • Improved control in exposed, windy corridors
  • Reduced risk around public interfaces and live traffic
  • Consistent performance across repetitive, program-driven lifts

Wind Energy

Wind turbine components are long, heavy, and highly sensitive to rotation. VLN provides precise control for blades, towers, and nacelles, onshore and offshore.

Wind energy hero image

Why wind energy needs VLN

Wind farms operate in remote, high-wind environments where uncontrolled movement is dangerous and expensive. Every correction costs time; every uncontrolled swing increases risk.

Key VLN features for wind energy

  • High-precision control for long blades during installation
  • Reduced wind-induced rotation of tower sections
  • Improved safety and speed during nacelle alignment
  • More predictable lifts, even in challenging weather windows

Oil & Gas

High-risk environments demand absolute control. VLN reduces hazards and improves operational efficiency offshore and onshore, from platforms to refineries.

Oil & gas hero image

Why oil & gas needs VLN

Offshore platforms and process plants are congested, confined and unforgiving. Uncontrolled swing near live process equipment is not an option. VLN gives operators precise, predictable movement.

Key VLN features for oil & gas

  • Reduced swing and rotation in confined plant spaces
  • Improved control during vessel-to-platform and deck lifts
  • Enhanced safety within hazardous and classified zones
  • Minimised weather-related delays through better lift control

Ports

Ports operate under constant time pressure. VLN improves lift speed, reduces rotation, and increases throughput across containers, breakbulk, and project cargo.

Ports hero image

Why ports need VLN

Container and breakbulk operations rely on tight turnaround times and predictable cycles. Uncontrolled swing at height increases risk to workers and assets, and forces operators to slow down.

Key VLN features for ports

  • Reduced container swing for ship-to-shore operations
  • Improved safety around quay cranes and yard equipment
  • Faster lift cycles without sacrificing control
  • Better performance in windy coastal environments

Transport & Logistics

From warehouses to intermodal hubs, VLN ensures safe, efficient handling of diverse, high-value loads.

Transport & logistics hero image

Why transport & logistics needs VLN

Freight operations depend on speed and accuracy. Damage, rework, and inconsistent handling add hidden cost. VLN keeps loads stable as they move between modes and facilities.

Key VLN features for transport & logistics

  • Gentle handling for sensitive and high-value cargo
  • Reduced rotation during loading and unloading operations
  • Improved safety around forklifts, reach stackers, and cranes
  • Consistent handling across varied load types and packaging

Mining

Mining operations involve heavy, awkward and hazardous loads. VLN improves control and reduces risk in some of the harshest environments.

Mining hero image

Why mining needs VLN

From plant maintenance to underground operations, mining presents unique lifting challenges. Uncontrolled movement around people, vehicles, and plant is a critical risk that VLN directly addresses.

Key VLN features for mining

  • Stabilisation for irregular and awkward loads
  • Improved safety in confined underground and plant areas
  • Reduced risk during heavy equipment maintenance lifts
  • Reliable performance in dusty, dirty, and windy conditions

Heavy Manufacturing

Precision and repeatability are essential in fabrication and assembly. VLN keeps components under control from workshop to final installation.

Heavy manufacturing hero image

Why heavy manufacturing needs VLN

Factories and fabrication shops depend on predictable, safe lifting to maintain production flow. Every misaligned lift is wasted time and increased risk.

Key VLN features for heavy manufacturing

  • Precision alignment for assembly and fit-up operations
  • Reduced rotation for long or awkward fabricated components
  • Improved safety around production lines and workstations
  • Faster, more repeatable lifts across shifts and crews
