HBC remote operator seat. Be in the driver’s seat.

The wireless operation of machinery by mobile remote controls is an established standard worldwide. However, a fixed control station can also be advantageous in various application scenarios. The HBC remote operator seat combines the benefits of a mobile radio remote control and a fixed control station, offering the best of both worlds.

The idea:

• The new HBC remote operator seat is a comfortable chair system with controls integrated into the armrests.
• The operator seat can be combined with a portable radio transmitter using the proven HBC catch-release feature.
• By means of a switch or button the operator can easily switch between operator seat and the portable transmitter and chose the best suitable operating concept.

How it works:

• The control commands are issued wirelessly to an HBC radio receiver on the machine.
• The operator seat includes our proven HBC safety concept.
• The operator seat and the portable transmitter use the same control concepts and layouts of operating elements and labelings.

Benefits at a glance:

• The operator can flexibly choose the preferred control concept depending on the requirements and hazards of the working environment.
• Work processes become even more intuitive thanks to the equal response behavior of both the operator seat and the portable transmitter.
• In very demanding environments, HBC's radio technologies TC7 (narrow-band), TC242 (2.4 GHz) and TC190 (DECT) along with our optional focus E antenna ensure optimum radio connection.
• Both operating concepts work with robust and durable HBC quality components.
• The concept can be integrated in various seat types.
• A wide variety of HBC controls and fully customized labeling allow for the ideal configuration.
• The wireless connection of the operator seat saves time and costs for cables and wiring.

Application examples:

• During complex machine control maneuvers, the operator can move freely with the portable radio transmitter to be positioned with the best possible view of the machine and for safe and precise operation.
• For very long work shifts, or in poor weather conditions such as rain or snow, operation from the seat offers clear advantages.
