The Buddie System

Introducing The Buddy System (TBS)

A wireless instant safety alert device designed for crane operators and dogmen enabling rapid alarm activation in emergencies.

The TBS device overcomes the shortfalls of two-way radio failure and often-inaudible backup whistles. The TBS lanyard allows a Dogman/Slinger to instantly transmit an alarm signal to a crane operator to stop.

A quick snap on the TBS lanyard activates the alarm.

It's that simple

Up to ten lanyards can be paired to the crane mounted alert device with a range of up to 1km*. Making The Buddie System (TBS) an essential piece of safety equipment for any industry with cranes. Designed in Australia, by local dogmen, riggers and crane operators, The Buddie System (TBS) is simple to use and comes with a host of practical features
