FORKLIFT PAGING – TIME OPTIMIZATION – EFFICIENCY
In many places in production or in warehouses, there will be wasted time when moving goods or loading and unloading.
Forklifts are valuable equipment for a company, and it is important to make full use of the capacity and not waste time.
Many people probably know the scenario that the forklift is elsewhere in the warehouse or in the yard, and you have to run out to tell the forklift driver where he is going to drive next time. This not only provides wasted time for the person who has to run out, but in many cases there is also a safety risk associated with the person having to run around between trucks or forklifts.
The solution is simple and straightforward; A forklift call system, which is a special call button that can be mounted in the places from which you want to call in the forklift. The driver can get the message through a simple pager (which is also called buzzer, beeper) which shows the station number calling, or he may have a pager with a display showing him some more text. For example; drive to loading ramp at the back.
Using efficient pager communication, forklift driver can also better prioritize the calls he gets as some tasks may be more urgent than others and futile driving is avoided.
You can also simply install a button in the forklift if it is necessary for the forklift driver to be able to call for assistance. It can e.g. be that a supervisor or factory manager must be called if there are questions, and with a pager system you also avoid having to waste time running around to find the person. So basically, a staff pager for forklifts!
A pager system for the forklift segment is not only a better form of communication than e.g. a mobile phone, as text messages can often be a long way off. A pager system has a specific and independent frequency which responds immediately, but also the robustness of the hardware, makes it durable and suitable for the harsh production and warehouse environment.
A forklift call system provides structure and time savings in many productions and warehouses and provides a stress-free communication.
