Patent number: 9896819Abstract: An industrial machine and a method of controlling an industrial machine, the industrial machine including a dipper supported by a dipper handle. The method may include determining an operating phase of the industrial machine, in a first operating phase of the industrial machine, limiting, with at least one controller, a reach of the dipper handle, and in a second operating phase of the industrial machine, enabling, with the at least one controller, an extended reach of the dipper handle greater than the reach in the first operating phase. The industrial machine may include at least one controller configured to determine an operating phase of the industrial machine, in a first operating phase of the industrial machine, limit a reach of the dipper handle, and, in a second operating phase of the industrial machine, enable an extended reach of the dipper handle greater than the reach in the first operating phase.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2016Date of Patent: February 20, 2018Assignee: Harnischfeger Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Michael Linstroth, Joseph J. Colwell, Mooyoung Lee, Matthew I. Loew, Jason Knuth, Peter Gizewski, Jr., Justin Zunker
