An on-truck device detects impacts and records event details such as date, time and driver ID, such that a UK steel plant, operating 26 forklift trucks, reduced damage by 50%.
Installation of this new device will result in improved site safety, decreased damage and lower fuel expenditure.
The ShockSwitch ImpactManager SL is a comprehensive and highly- reliable product.
The system is completely adjustable and can be set for either the limiter activation time or truck speed, which can be as low as 5 mph.
Dual speeds can be set and activated automatically or via a push button.
For larger companies with multiple truck installations, the ECU can be pre-programmed to specific requirements, so that the system is automatically set-up.
Having built up a large database of truck information, Lamerholm can provide truck specific systems, all with comprehensive installation instructions.
Installation can be carried out by in-house personnel or qualified Lamerholm engineers. Request a free brochure from Lamerholm Electronics ...
