Created to boost lift truck operation, Hyster Reaction provides users a package of technologies. It automatically adjusts trucks’ performances, according to real-time equipment status, location and operating conditions. The package includes advanced dynamic stability, object detection, proximity detection and real-time location sensing, each of which has been designed for lift trucks in fast-paced, highly demanding indoor environments.
The solution offers users an array of operator-assist functionalities, which can be used to reinforce best practices, based primarily on locations, equipment-specific thresholds and closeness to obstacles and pedestrians.
The functionalities include automatic slowdown as lift trucks approach intersections, a hydraulic lock-out that prevents load movement that exceeds weight threshold and proactive speed reduction as users travel around corners.
Company Product Description
Hyster Reaction™ is an industry-first technology package that helps reinforce lift truck operating best practices, tailored to the complexity of demanding, fast-paced indoor lift truck environments. The solution applies a broad range of equipment performance controls based on location, equipment-specific thresholds and proximity to obstacles or pedestrians, while the operator remains in control of the lift truck.
AUTOMATIC SLOW-DOWN/REDUCE TRAVEL SPEED
Automatically limits speed when approaching pedestrians and equipment or according to location-specific rules, such as when lift trucks approach a four-way cross or designated pedestrian zone.
LOAD STABILITY/CONTROL HYDRAULIC FUNCTION
Adjusts hydraulic functions, including lift, lower and tilt to help reduce the risk of tipping and load pitching, including an overload arrest function to prevent operators moving loads that exceed specified weight thresholds.
DYNAMIC ALERTS/KEEP OPERATORS INFORMED
Triggers visual and audible alerts based on load status and the presence of a pedestrian or obstacle in close proximity or path of travel, helping support operator awareness and adherence to best practices.
