The TCA design uses a proprietary connection and technology system that detects and corrects issues, and sensors to integrate with WMS and communicate with other equipment in the facility.
The Total Control Access (TCA) pallet drop safety gate ensures that an elevated ledge is never left unprotected, providing employees working close to elevated ledges with failsafe fall protection in any material handling environment.
Like the original Roly safety gate, the new TCA design is a dual-gate system, but the gates do not operate in tandem. In the new design, when one gate is open, the opposite gate stays fully closed and is prevented from opening until the other is fully into the closed position.
TCA gate operations are automatic and solely done through the technology within the system, so employees no longer are required to operate or touch the devices. This is helpful in high volume fulfillment centers in which speed to move pallets is a top priority.
New safety measures have been built into the TCA gate’s proprietary technology and connections. The TCA safety gate design includes photo eyes and tension monitors that can detect items preventing the gate from closing, and if an error occurs, the system prevents the gate from dropping quickly and can automatically stop the gate movement while ensuring that one gate remains fully closed.
