Wireless collision avoidance
Safety solutions
Enable forklift trucks, people and objects in the warehouse to communicate with one another.
Protect your warehouse from collisions by allowing it to prevent them by itself! Enable forklift trucks, people and objects to communicate with and react to one another. This is made possible thanks to bi-directional wireless sensors.
With the help of its fine sensors, the system minimizes the risk of accidents and downtime for your employees, prevents productivity losses and thus avoids high follow-up costs. The assistance system offers protection for the following applications:
- Smart. Human, vehicle and zone detection
- Accurate. Freely configurable warning zone with an accuracy of up to 10 cm
- Intelligent. Mutual warning and communication
- Easy. Flexible and fast installation
Wireless collision avoidance
The wireless collision avoidance protects drivers, employees and trucks from dangerous situations, even without visibility. The system requires the truck to be pre-fitted with a set of antennae, a driver interface and a connection to the vehicle controller. It allows trucks, pedestrians and stationary wireless modules (e.g. on doors, entrances, hazard points) to communicate with each other. When trucks approach pedestrians, both parties receive an optical and acoustic warning (warning zone). In case of dangerous approaches (protection zone), they are alerted and interventions in the operation (braking) may be triggered. It therefore prevents ‘vehicle to pedestrian’ and ‘vehicle to vehicle’ collisions.
Solution available for following trucks
Vehicle-to-human
With radio-based collision avoidance, even poorly visible corners and intersections in the warehouse become safe zones. The smart system reliably warns pedestrians and drivers in advance of dangerous situations - even through shelves and walls. The optional automatic speed reduction function provides additional safety in the event of an acute collision risk.
Vehicle-to-vehicle
Proactive warning signals for maximum safety: At intersections and at poorly visible aisle entries, STILL Smart Assist Zoning actively warns the drivers of all vehicles involved with audible and visual signals. In combination with passive safety features such as all-round mirrors, this ensures optimum protection for the driver, vehicle and load. The warning distance can be set individually.
Vehicle-to-infrustructure
Avoid unpleasant surprises when driving through the gate! The radio-based system sends visual and audible alarms as soon as a vehicle enters the entrance area, at the same time activating the opening of the gate. When passing the gate with a raised mast, an additional sensor triggers an alarm if there is a risk of the mast colliding with the gate - a perfect symbiosis of safety and efficiency.
