Vehicule/vehicule & Vehicule/Pedestrian
Anti-Collision
This new last generation tool warns forklift drivers as it detects other loading vehicles in proximity and risk zones, and also when a pedestrians entering those zones in order to avoid collision and accidents.
Pedestrian Alert System (PAS)
Pedestrian Alert System (PAS)
What is it?
The Pedestrian Alert System (PAS) is a solution designed to warn forklift drivers when detecting a person at adjustable distances of 1 to 6.5 meters. It is a unique system with the capacity to discriminate between people and objects. It even detects operators who are behind a wall or a shelf!
How does it work?
Pedestrians carry Tags (Electronic keyfobs). When these are detected by the system previously installed in forklifts, it alerts the driver with warning light signals. This way the warned driver is aware that there is a person near his/her work area and can then take the necessary precautions.
What elements does it include?
The PAS solution is marketed as a kit and it’s very easy to install. The system consists of the following elements:
T-10 TAG / T-10R TAG:
This device protects pedestrians from being run over by forklifts or any other industrial vehicles. The Tag makes the operator visible to the detector and warns the driver.
WIRELESS CHARGE STATION:
It is a charger for 12 Tags T-10R.
ACTIVATOR RFID:
The activator provides an immediate indication of the location and status of both an active T-10 tag and a localized TZ-tag, in order to improve their monitoring and identification capabilities. It uses low frequency signals to generate a safety zone around it.
TEST-TAG:
This is an active device that guarantees the correct functioning of the device.
VERIFICATION ANTENNA:
This small device is designed to check and register the correct functioning of the system.

Where can it be used?
The Pedestrian Alert System is ideal for use in loading and unloading areas in industries and factory spaces. It is also ideal for use in areas with poor visibility where pedestrians interact with forklifts and warehouse aisle exits.
In general, it is a highly recommended system for spaces or work areas shared between forklifts and pedestrians – such as production lines -, where the space for pedestrian and forklift traffic is very limited, and where it is essential to take extreme measures care and caution measures.

Things to consider:
The PAS system is applicable to forklifts with loads of up to 3.5 tons, whether retractable or counterbalanced. In addition, optimal speeds are between 6 km/h and 8 km/h.
Collision Avoidance System (CAS-G2)
Collision Avoidance System (CAS-G2)
What is it?
The CAS-G2 is designed to reduce work accidents caused by collisions among cargo vehicles. As a support system for drivers it provides more information about the space through which they circulate. It allows the person manoeuvring the vehicle to learn about the position of other forklifts and bring them into the equation when making driving decisions. The CAS-G2 is a system which compliments other tools designed to enhance safety at work.
How does it work?
Once a forklift is equipped with the CAS-G2 system, it will detect other vehicles also fitted with the same device. The detection zones are configurable, with a range of up to 40 meters. This means that even if a forklift is travelling through a blind spot or moving behind a shelf or a space that prevents it from being clearly seen, the system will detect its presence and warn drivers approaching so that they can take the necessary precautions.
What elements does it include?
The CAS-G2 solution is marketed as an easy-to-install kit which is composed of:
· The CAS-G2 Equipment
· Support positioning elements
· A power and signal cable
*It also includes an RGB light signal and an acoustic warning alarm.

Truck Docking System (TDS)
Truck Docking System (TDS)
DESCRIPTION
The traffic light of the Truck Loading and Unloading Safety (TDS) cautions the driver of the presence of other personnel at a loading dock.
The dock is equipped with detection sensors which, after detecting a person, issue a signal to the traffic light. Upon being alerted by the traffic light, they can apply extreme caution and attempt to load or unload the goods carried on the dock without any risks.

Low Speed Area (LSA)
Low Speed Area (LSA)
What is it?
The main objective of the LSA Solution is to limit the speed at which forklifts circulate. This electronic safety system is specially designed to complement forklifts’ safety tools and to reduce their speed in areas where there are operators on foot or pedestrians.
How does it work?
Once the system is installed, its operation is very simple, and it requires no action from the operator. The truck that is equipped with the LSA Solution reacts upon entering an area in which the use of the system was predetermined, activating a signal that compels it to adapt to the established limit in the “slow” or “fast” zones.
What elements compose the LSA System?
The system is composed of three elements:
CODE DETECTION SENSORS:
These are responsible for decoding the reflective bands previously installed, to transmit to the control unit the reading of the type of speed that is determined.
CONTROL UNIT:
It’s installed on the forklift and it’s responsible for managing the speed change of the work vehicle. When the forklift drives under the reflecting panel, the detection sensors decode the zone change and the control unit assigns the corresponding speed in that space.
REFLECTIVE STRIPS:
They are installed in the building – on the doors’ heads or in areas where speed changes occur – and are responsible for indicating to the sensors that there must be a speed modification or special care must be taken in that space.

Safety Alert Visualisation (VAS)
Safety Alert Visualisation (VAS)
What is it?
The Safety Alert Visualisation solution is an innovative development which warns pedestrians and/or forklifts in situations of risk by projecting signals on the ground.
How does it work?
The projector has 1 to 3 different colour lenses and the projected symbols are customisable.
Some examples of what can be projected are a forklift sign, pedestrian signs, a STOP warning, a pedestrian crossing, a speed limit sign, a “no smoking” sign warning or a signal indicating that the use of mobile phones is prohibited, among many other options.

What elements does it include?
This system only involves placing the projector in the place where we want to locate the warning signals.
Bear in mind that there are two types of projectors available: a 50w and a 120w. The 50w projector is indicated for sites that have low ambient light, while the 120w is much more powerful and suitable for warehouses or production plants with lots of lighting.

Where can it be used?
This system is ideal for use in warehouses, logistics centres, production areas, spaces separating production areas from offices, corridors and transit areas in industrial spaces, as well as in blind spots in work spaces.
Advantages
This system differs from other signage options in that its highly effective and visible.
Experience shows us that projections on the ground provide better visibility than those projected above.
They are also better than the commonly used panoramic mirrors, since these are often placed too high to be seen and paid attention to. In many cases, these mirrors become part of the landscape of the workspace and operators don’t give them due consideration.
On the other hand, with a projector that emits a signal on the ground it’s easier to capture a person’s attention. This person receives a much more direct and easier to detect warning, is more protected and can circulate safely.
In a nutshell, there are many benefits to the VAS system: the image is easy to see, it doesn’t wear out, it can be turned on and off, the projected signs can be changed, the marks are very visible, and they attract a lot of attention.

Crossing Guard
Crossing Guard
What is it?
This system is used to prevent collisions or similar work accidents at the intersections of warehouses or industrial spaces. It protects forklift operators and drivers in these areas, which frequently record safety incidents.
How does it work?
When the vehicle or person approaches the intersection area it receives a visual alert from the traffic lights and the projection via the Bluespot or the VAS projector indicating whether or not he or she has permission to cross the intersection. The Crossing Guard system uses radar technology capable of differentiating persons from vehicles and identifying whether a forklift is approaching an intersection or if it is moving away from it.
What are this device’s components?
The Crossing Guard has been built in a robust aluminium structure that includes 2, 3 or 4 traffic lights, either with Bluespot technology or the VAS system. We have several models available:
Models with bluespot technology:
• Crossing Guard 2S (2 faces with traffic lights)
• Crossing Guard 3S (3 faces with traffic lights)
• Crossing Guard 4S (4 faces with traffic lights)
Models with VAS System:
• Crossing Guard V2S (2 faces with traffic lights)
• Crossing Guard V3S (3 faces with traffic lights)
• Crossing Guard V4S (4 faces with traffic lights)
