forklift Collision Avoidance and proximity warning System
Location Awareness for
Forklift Safety
More than 14% of all workplace accidents are caused by the loss of control of equipment causing collisions and injuries, making it the second most observed accident type and the cause of many fatalities.
The frequency of the incidents, combined with the high fatality rate has made collisions one of the most important workplace safety issues to address, especially for facilities such as factories, warehouses, shipyards, construction sites and mining plants. Forklift collision avoidance systems and proximity warnings can be crucial to prevent accidents.
How Can forklift collision avoidance system Help?
Forklift Collision Avoidance and Proximity Warning module prevents vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian collisions by providing location awareness to workers and mobile equipment such as forklifts and AGVs.
With wearable devices for pedestrians and UWB tags installed on vehicles, pedestrians are warned when they are near a vehicle and the vehicle is automatically slowed down or stopped without driver intervention with the anti-collision system.
In loading areas where there is a frequent influx of trucks, forklifts and other vehicles, an area control device can be installed to recognize risky proximity between pedestrians and vehicles and activate warnings.
features of forklift collision avoidance system
2 Level Warning With Buzzer
Pedestrians and forklift operators are warned through their smart badge with vibration with two intensity levels based on distance parameters set by the company.
Visual Alerts
Forklifts are equipped with safety lights with sound that automatically flash to warn pedestrians around.
Parametric Slowing Down/Stopping
Forklifts automatically slow down or stop when they are near another vehicle or a pedestrian. Panel administrators can set safe zones in which forklifts can be slowed down to prevent any collisions.
Management Panel and Application
WHS departments and all relevant personnel can monitor processes, change parameters and observe safety performance remotely.
Access Control & Shift Management
Multi-purpose smart badges can also be used for turnstile activation.
Securing Loading Docks
On loading docks, there is a steady flow of truck and forklift traffic that must operate safely and efficiently. To prevent collisions or other accidents, the loading dock area can be installed with sensors that recognize the presence of vehicles or pedestrians and activate warning signals to ensure all are notified of the risky situation through their UWB wearable devices.
