Standard Features
-
Seat/Seatbelt Intelligent Interlock
Intelligent Sequencing interlocking seat and seatbelt sensors ensure operators are wearing their seatbelts at all times. Attempts to bypass the system will alert management of tampering attempts and prevent the equipment from starting.
-
Operator ID Controls
Swipe Card, PIN pad and Biometric are some of the many methods available to ensure only licensed and authorised operators are able to start and use the equipment. Also keep track of licence details, expiry dates, and refresher training requirements in real-time.
-
Pre-Start Safety Checklist
A paperless checklist system enables customised condition reports for all plant. Advanced after-start checklist features ensuring brake, steering and other critical functions are all checked prior to full operation. Automatic email notification of fault events, and customisable lock out/tag out features for faulty equipment. Checklists are always available for review and record keeping via the online reporting engine.
-
Impact Detection
Advanced highly sensitive accelerometers allow ForkTrack to accurately report on any impact events the forklift incurs, with information immediately emailed to management indicating date/time, operator, impact severity, impact direction, speed prior to the impact and also if the impact has triggered a shutdown event.
-
Impact Shutdown
In severe impact events, the ForkTrack system can tag out the vehicle (after a pre-set shutdown period) to ensure the vehicle is inspected before returning to operation. The vehicle can only be restarted by a supervisor or technician.
-
Handbrake Interlock
Ensures that the handbrake is always engaged when the operator leaves the vehicle. Automatically engages neutral, and can shut down the vehicle if it is left off and the operator dismounts.
-
Transmission Control
Stops excessive tyre wear and driveline damage. Ensures the vehicle is travelling below 4kph for any shift change, and below 1200rpm when moving from neutral to in-gear to eliminate wheel spin on take-off.
-
Engine Vital Monitoring
Monitors and even shuts down equipment that is operating with critical coolant level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, oil temperature or transmission temperature conditions.
Advanced Features
-
Digital Weight Indicator
Provides your operator with a real-time indication of the load weight, and allows accumulation of loads carried using the ADD function available on-screen. Integrated overload warning assists in keeping the vehicle operating in its safe zone.
-
Speed & Zone Control
Active speed control and passive speed warnings are both features available in the ForkTrack range of products. Active speed control can also be integrated with zone controls to vary speed restrictions across a site.
-
Lift/Tilt Lockout
Controls mast movements in situations where the forklift is nearing rated capacity. Understanding capacity limitations and controlling these functions is the key to maintaining safe operations. Constant feedback from the ForkTrack module also keeps the operator informed of the stability conditions in real time.
-
Overload Lockout
In the event a forklift attempts to lift a load greater than the capacity of the vehicle, the system can actively lock out the lift function to prevent unsafe operations, and also engage neutral.
-
Automatic Email Alerts
Email Alerts are generated for any events, and can be emailed to subscribed recipients immediately to allow proactive and instant response and follow up.
-
Battery Management System
Advanced Battery + Charger technology merges seamlessly with ForkTrack to provide leading edge energy management solutions for battery electric fleet.
Online Reporting
-
Forklift
Forklift equipped with ForkTrack Fleet Management and Safety System.
-
ForkTrack Module
Compact multi-voltage fully sealed (IP67) module with backlit 3" LCD display and contactless controls. The ForkTrack module also comprises a modem, battery back-up, non-volatile memory and high performance microprocessor in one sleek design.
-
Wifi / 2G / 3G Communications
Multiple options are available for web connection for the ForkTrack module. The array of technology available ensures the best and most reliable communications in any application, from high density warehousing to remote locale.
-
Servers
Dedicated high capacity secure servers store all information sent back from the ForkTrack units, allowing full reporting functionality for the life of the vehicle.
-
Online Reporting
ForkTrack Online Reporting gives fleet managers powerful, real-time control and visibility over their entire industrial fleet. The unique system allows fleet managers, OH&S managers and supervisors to monitor, manage and analyse at company, division, site and vehicle levels. A specifically designed 'dashboard' handles the data analysis, providing clear, concise and interactive charts to enable first glance awareness of fleet performance, efficiency and safety.
Speed Indoor/Outdoor Ranger
- Reliable Time of Flight sensor to detect indoor environments
- Fail to slowest mode - anti-tamper
- Simple and Reliable
- Intergrates with most active speed limiting systems
Function and Operation
Operating Principle
The Ranger Indoor/Outdoor Zone Sensor works by utilising a reliable Time of Flight laser range measurement from the sensor, typically mounted on the overhead guard of the industrial vehicle to the roof/ceiling. When operating in an indoor environment a valid range measurement is obtained and processed by the on-board processor. In an outdoor environment no return laser signal is received by the Time of Flight subsystem, and the system can determine the vehicle is outdoors. The processor provides range information and indoor/outdoor indication via the CANbus interface, and also provides a relay output to indicate indoor/outdoor status.
Relay Output
A relay output with common and normally open contacts is provided. Relay closure can be configured to indicate either indoor or outdoor zone presence, but the recommendation is to configure and treat the relay closure to indicate outdoor zoning which generally has a desired higher speed limit, and therefore tamper or failure of the module or damage to wiring looms will result in a default to indoor zoning which can be configured to have a lower speed limit.
CANbus
The device provides raw range information and indoor/outdoor zone status information via the CANbus interface.
