METHOD FOR MOVING A LIFTING DEVICE

A method for moving a lifting device includes: in a presetting phase, presetting at least one target position for the lifting device; in a measuring phase, detecting an instantaneous geometry of the arm system; in a selection phase, selecting a target position specified in the presetting phase; in a comparison phase, determining a geometrical deviation between the geometry of the target position selected in the selection phase and the instantaneous geometry detected in the measuring phase; in a generation phase, generating at least one control command on the basis of the geometrical deviation determined in the comparison phase; and in a control phase, performing at least partial movement of the lifting device into the selected target position by actuating the actuators of the arm system with the at least one control command generated in the generation phase.
