Abstract :
A fuzzy logic controller was designed for a scale prototype overhead crane. The set of fuzzy rules that describe the controller behavior was derived in such a way to resemble the behavior of a precalculated trolley acceleration profile. Results from simulations and experimental tests show that the load angular displacement overshoot does not depend on trolley travel distance. Besides, any remaining oscillation is damped by the controller when the trolley gets to the desired position
