Handheld Remote Controls: Smarter, Safer Operations for Concrete Batch & Precast Plants
Concrete Plants Demand Control You Can Count On
In a concrete batch plant or precast facility, everyone is under pressure to keep things moving—safely and on time. Operators need tools that make their jobs easier and safer. Managers need systems that keep downtime low and production efficient.
That’s why so many plants are replacing corded pendant controls with Control Chief handheld wireless remotes.
Why Get Rid of Corded Pendants?
Corded pendants seem simple, but they create more problems than they solve:
- Tripping hazards for anyone working nearby
- Limited mobility, forcing operators to stay tethered to one spot
- Closer exposure to moving machinery than is necessary
- Frequent cord wear and tear, adding hidden maintenance costs
For operators, cords get in the way and put them at risk. For plant managers, cords lead to downtime, inefficiency, and liability.
The Control Chief Advantage
Our Handheld Industrial Remote Controls take the cords out of the equation and give both operators and managers what they need:
- Improved Safety – Operators can step back from dust, noise, and heavy equipment while staying in full control.
- Better Visibility – Remote freedom means workers can position themselves where they see best, improving accuracy.
- Higher Efficiency – No cords to trip over, no tangled pendants to fix, and less wear-and-tear downtime.
- Built Tough – Designed for harsh environments, from dust-heavy batch plants to rugged precast yards.
Where They Work Best
Control Chief handheld remotes are already in use across the concrete industry for:
- Starting/stopping conveyors and feeders
- Managing aggregate loading
- Controlling mixers and batch hoppers
- Operating overhead cranes for precast handling
A Win for Crews and Companies
For operators, Control Chief remotes mean safer, easier work. For plant managers, they mean more reliable production and less risk. Together, that’s a better way to run a concrete operation.
