Linde Safety Pilot

Overview

| Linde Safety Solutions |

▪ Human errors cause 95% of all workplace accidents in material handling. Frequently changing loads and parameters that are difficult to estimate, such as weight, centre of gravity distance and the exact lifting height, make it difficult for drivers to handle them in accordance with safety regulations.

▪ The intelligent assistance system Linde Safety Pilot provides reliable support for drivers.

▪ The system displays the most important parameters and actively intervenes in the handling of loads to protect people and the environment. The result: safe and efficient intralogistics.

ORANGE: Threshold

Load capacity limit almost reached. Lift and tilt speed reduced.

RED: Critical areaLoad capacity limit reached. Warning tone sounds, truck controls turn off.

GREEN: Safe working range

Truck loading and unloading

No warning

Warning!

Risk to the HGV driver

− when approaching the immediate danger zone of the forklift truck

Problem

− Clear, repeatable warning in the immediate vicinityof the roller

− Forklift truck drivers are only warned when someone is in very close proximity to the truck

Solution

− Within 10 cm of precision

− Warnings triggered only when there is a clear danger

− No annoyingly frequent notifications

USP



Corners, crossings and low visibility areas

Risk to pedestrians

− at corners, crossovers and low visibility areas, where walkways and roads intersect

Problem

Solution

− Signal transmission through walls and shelves*

− Simultaneous and prompt warning for drivers and persons

USP

− Pedestrians warned of approaching truck

− Driver warned− Optional truck speed

restriction


*Valid for typical intralogistics facilities. Examination within the scope of consulting


Doors and entrance gates

Risk to pedestrians

− when passing through doors and entering the path of the truck

− when the truck passes through a gate and crosses a walkway

Problem

Solution

− Signal transmission through walls*

− Time of warning can be adjusted to suit the application

USP

− Pedestrians warned of approaching truck

− Optional truck speed restriction


*Valid for typical intralogistics facilities. Examination within the scope of consulting

2. Collision between multiple trucks

Truck to truck warning

− Active warning for drivers(versus inactive warning by round mirror)

− Adjustable truckwarning distance

USP

Truck collision due to

− blind crossings− low visibility in shelving aisles

Problem

− Warning for drivers in the immediate vicinity of crossingpoints

− Warning by Truck Unit display in forklift truck

− Warning zone illuminationequivalent to personal warning

Solution


3. Collision between truck and infrastructure

Passing through gates and traverses

− Truck drives through door/roller shutter with raised lift mast− Risk to forklift truck driver − Damage to door and truck *

Problem

− Static unit warning when truck enters zone− Optional: Speed restriction− Additional sensor detects lift mast height− Warning (sound/light) if lift mast is too high in the gate area− Door opens automatically as truck approaches:

prevents collisions with moving parts(support of gate technician required)

Solution

* Costs of a collision with a roller door: min. EUR 2,500 up to EUR 15,000, plus damage to the industrial truck


3. Collision between truck and infrastructure

Unadjusted driving speeds

− Hitting doorways causes vibrations and shocks. This adversely affects the driver's health and leads toabove-average wear-and-tearon the truck

Problem

− Automatic and targeted speed restriction at edges of the loading area without loss of productivity*

* For warehouse equipment only as a

Customized Option

Solution

− Optimal timing of deceleration can be adjusted to suit the application

Linde Connect

Fleet Management solution


The fleet manager knows at all times which driver is controlling which forklift truck and how long it has been in use. They use software to determine who is allowed to drive in which areas and at what speed. With just one click, they can see the capacity utilisation and energy consumption of the entire fleet and when the next service is due.These are just a few examples of the functions of the Linde connect fleet management system. The hardware and software of the Linde connect family networks the forklifts and collects and analyses the truck data. This increases the availability, safety and productivity of the fleet.

▪ Comprehensive administration and information on all trucks in the fleet as well as drivers

▪ Data analysis and monitoring▪ Ex works and as retrofit solution▪ Secure transmission via Wifi, Bluetooth or mobile broadband▪ Can be used independent of fleet size▪ Modular software for individual requirements

Linde Connect

Networked Infrastructure


▪ The fleet management system Linde connect uses a series of sensors on the trucks to record important data, from charging status to possible collisions.

▪ Linde forklift trucks and trucks from other manufacturers can be equipped with the appropriate hardware for Linde connect either ex works or by retrofitting.

▪ For access control, these are the Linde connect access units.

▪ This ensures that only authorised drivers can activate and use the forklift truck by means of a PIN or RFID chip.

▪ The Linde connect data unit handles data acquisition and transmission via Bluetooth, mobile phone or WLAN.

▪ The software connect:desk enables detailed evaluation and processing with the help of different modules.

Linde connect functionality for fleet optimisation


Access control connect:acThe access control function enables driver-specific access control via PIN or contactless RFID, thereby restricting unauthorised use. Another function is the app-based forklift check prior to the start of shift, which increases operational reliability and ensures that trucks can only be started once the checks have been successfully completed.

Truck data connect:dtThe digital operating hours logbook records the operating hours and improves operational planning and fleet utilisation. The crash detection function can also be used to record accidents as well as potential hazards such as uneven ground. Trouble codes are a further feature which enable the early detection of malfunctions or damage to a truck.

Usage analysis connect:anThe usage analysis gives the fleet manager an overview of the actual fleet performance. This enables the identification of under-utilised trucks as well as the driving behaviour of individual trucks and drivers, visualising any potential for improvement. The battery management function documents the battery data display, detects possible operating errors and helps to prevent damage and lossof performance.
