Hy-Ten Reinforcements of the UK has had Cattron-Theimig IT remote control installed on a tower crane moving steel in its yard. The I-B radio remote control system is designed to operate the tower crane without an operator inside the cabin. The crane is controlled on the ground by one person with the hand-held control. The operator can perform other duties while the crane is not lifting anything, rather than having to stay in the cab waiting for the next lift.

Cattron claims that this allows the operator to choose the best vantage point from which to work and so increases accuracy and control. The system comes with either push-button or joystick controls and is fitted with a multi frequency synthesised radio system to change channels easily.
