This comprehensive traffic control system is not dependent on batteries and mobile devices, and operates in a totally passive form. There is a physical separation of pedestrians and forklifts to avoid costly accidents. There are gates that remain locked as the forklift passes through a given zone to allow for a clear passage for the forklift, and the system includes a warning system for the forklifts as to signal a possible collision in blind spots.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The forklifts incorporate a PAS system with an AC-50 activator that generates a radio frequency field around it.
Similarly, TZ2-Tag devices are installed in different points of the workspace to detect previously equipped vehicles.
When a forklift enters the safety zone defined by the TZ2-Tag, the vehicle and warehouse lighting warnings are activated, alerting those in the vicinity of the presence of the vehicle.
At the same time, the system automatically turns the pedestrian traffic light red and blocks the safety gate to prevent any pedestrians from crossing. Only when the vehicle leaves the safety space, the traffic light will turn green and the gates will open.
WHERE CAN IT BE USED?
The Traffic Control System is ideal to be used in work areas with little or no visibility, in spaces with a lot of forklift and operator traffic, and sites with pedestrian-forklift crossings.
For example, it is frequently installed in factory spaces, warehouses, loading docks, production lines and other industrial sites.
WHAT ELEMENTS DOES IT INCLUDE?
This is a very easy-to-install, durable system that only requires an RFID activator, a TZ2-Tag, a control box and its beacons, as well as the gates and traffic lights that the workspace may require.
