Summary:Abstract A stability system is described for an industrial machine having an elevatable boom. The stability system includes at least one machine inclination sensor arranged to 5 provide machine inclination information indicative of inclination of the industrial machine, a boom inclination sensor arranged to provide boom inclination information indicative of inclination of the elevatable boom of the industrial machine, and physical data. The physical data is indicative of locations of components of the industrial machine, mass values of components of the industrial machine, and centre of gravity 10 values of components of the industrial machine. The system determines at least one tipping line associated with the industrial machine, and determines a combined centre of gravity of the industrial machine using the boom inclination information and the physical data. The system also determines a tipping angle using the tipping line and the combined centre of gravity. The system also includes a display arranged to display 15 information indicative of a tipping risk based on the determined tipping angle and the machine inclination. 10958739_1 (GHMaers) P106990.AU.1 yx - X axis + X axis +Y axis - - Y axis 14 34 1612 23 3024 Fig. 1 12 - Z axis + Z axis 1810 + X axis - X axis Fig. 2
