Main features Main technical data Receivers

Automatic Frequency Agility (AFA)

As it is based on "AFA" technology, (Adaptive Frequency Agility), it avoids manual frequencies changes. The radio remote control continuously searches and selects the less impeded channel among the available ones.

R.T.A.S. radio calibration

The response behaviour of the single joysticks may be calibrated directly via radio, thus customising the speed of all crane motions (access protected by PIN code).

Event log

IMET radio remote controls memorize all events that may have led to failures or unexpected stops, as well as the device operating hours.

PIN Code: Always in safe hands

The new IMET range of radio remote controls allows you to set a customizable safety PIN code, so that the device can only be used by authorized personnel. This is yet another proof of how IMET designs and develops its products with extreme attention to details.

IMET dual-axis joysticks: now you have total control!

Forget the expensive maintenance costs of traditional sliding contact joysticks! Thanks to the contactless sensing technology, IMET dual-axis joysticks guarantee a long-life and maintenance-free operation providing superb proportional and step control, and will allow smooth and precise control of handling operations throughout the life cycle of your controller. Our range of solutions will cover all your needs: stepless proportional joysticks, one-step or multi-step joysticks (up to 5 steps for each axis).

IMET single-axis joysticks: powerful and accurate

This unique product brings together accuracy and comfort. It was tested for 15,000,000 operations and offers an incline angle of +/-40° - and these are just some of the great features of this incredible product designed and developed by IMET based on the "OPTICAL SENSE" technology.

Selection and motion controls: maximum comfort at work

IMET presents a wide range of selectors, buttons, switches and potentiometers that can meet every possible demand in terms of customisation. These components are extremely handy and suitable for long work shifts, even for operators wearing gloves.

Ergonomic belt

The convenient belt attachment allows the operator to have their hands completely free, and hence manage easily the loading and unloading operations on the machine.

Ergonomics: functionality goes hand in hand with design

We pay utmost attention to details in order to provide ergonomic and functional products. This leads to small-size, lightweight transmitting units that ensure greater freedom of movement and are comfortable and secure to handle, even in case of long working sessions.

Materials: No environment is too harsh

IMET radio remote control housings are made of synthetic compounds that are compliant with the RoHS standard and able to ensure maximum performance in terms of robustness, mechanical and thermal stability (with operating temperatures from -25°C to +55°C), as well as resistance to aggressive chemicals exposure. Moreover, these materials are free from hazardous substances, fully recyclable and hence, environmentally friendly.

New removable and rechargeable NiMH batteries: more energy, no pollution

Up to 22 hours of continuous operation! Compared with the previous batteries, the new NiMH generation ensures more autonomy and a negligible memory effect. The transmitter is equipped with an easily accessible battery slot that enables its fast replacement while ensuring a perfect sealing against liquids. Gold-plated contacts guarantee a long-term, stable electrical connection.

Control panel: we turn your ideas into reality

Using the advance technology of digital print, IMET is now able to customise markings according to your needs. For more complex configurations, multi-colour solutions allow the operator to identify quickly the various control units, thereby preventing errors or inadvertent activations.

Additional optionals

RTAS Real Time Analog Setup

RTAS is a technology that allows the calibration of proportional outputs directly from the transmitting unit. Following the relevant procedure, which is protected by an access code, it is possible to vary the minimum and the maximum limits for each movement of the machine.
