The order comprises Åkerström’s Sesam 800 radio system, including transmitters and receivers, which has been designed for use in extreme environments that require high resistance to vibration and impacts. The remote control system will be used to control winches with functions such as start/stop and in/out.

“We are very pleased to deliver our robust and durable remote control system for use with Weimer’s quality winches,” said Johan Hårdén, CEO.

Åkerströms has been a well-known, reliable supplier of quality industrial products for many years.
