Warehouse operatives need to be quick on their feet and can clock up the miles on a daily basis, particularly if their tasks involve a great deal of picking. But they also need to be protected from risks, especially those posed when they are working in close proximity to forklift trucks.
Our innovative smart vest is a first of its kind to combine comfort, unhampered mobility and above all safety for personnel. We will be exhibiting a prototype of this exciting new development as a LogiMAT exclusive in Stuttgart in Hall 10, on Stand F09 from February 19 - 21.
With our smart vest there is no longer any need for warehouse operatives to carry an additional personal module around with them. Electronics integrated in the front and back of the vest work alongside our mobile assistance system ELOshield to ensure that personnel can be protected and detected at all times.
When a warehouse operative is in the danger zone of a forklift, the vest he or she is wearing emits an acoustic alarm or sends a signal to the truck, which can automatically slow it down to walking speed. With long-range detection of personnel at the front or rear of trucks, ELOshield prevents accidents in the warehouse.
Our safety vest can of course be fitted with further innovative features to make the warehouse even safer. At LogiMAT we look forward to engaging with our customers regarding various options and functions that could be practically implemented. These may include:
The opportunities to add more features to the vest are many and varied. We look forward to discussions with you regarding the ongoing development and functions of this potential life saver.
