Forklift Proximity Alarm

APPLICATIONS

Construction, Scrap Metal, Mining:

To protect workers in high-risk zones with large machinery.

Warehouse and Industrial Settings:

Where forklifts and other vehicles operate in close proximity to people.

Forklift Proximity Detection Alarm System

The SEEN Safety System is an advanced forklift proximity detection technology designed to enhance operator awareness and reduce the risk of collisions in warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial environments. By detecting pedestrians, other forklifts, and nearby infrastructure, SEEN Safety provides real-time alerts to help operators navigate safely in high-traffic areas.

Key Features and Functionality

Precision Detection Technology

Utilizes infrared (IR) sensors to detect workers wearing high-visibility safety gear and reflective-marked infrastructure, ensuring accurate and reliable hazard detection.
Unlike radar or LiDAR, SEEN’s IR-based system minimizes false alarms by differentiating between workers, forklifts, and static objects such as racks, columns, and barriers.
Compact, easy-to-install sensors seamlessly integrate with forklifts to provide 360-degree proximity awareness without interfering with equipment operation.

Real-Time Forklift Proximity Alarms

Instant visual alerts via indicator lights in the operator’s cab notify drivers when a pedestrian, another forklift, or an obstacle is detected.
Audible alarms or beeps warn operators when they are approaching a potential collision hazard, prompting immediate action.
Unlike traditional systems that trigger alerts for all nearby objects, SEEN focuses on human presence and critical obstacles, reducing alert fatigue and improving operator response.

Proactive Collision Prevention

While SEEN Safety does not automatically stop forklifts (though integration with third-party braking systems is possible), it acts as a highly effective early warning system, giving operators time to react.
Can be customized to detect specific risk zones, such as blind intersections, high-traffic warehouse aisles, and loading docks.
Works in low-light and obstructed visibility conditions, ensuring forklift operators maintain safe navigation even in challenging environments.

Seamless High-Visibility Workwear Integration

Unlike tag-based systems, SEEN Safety detects ANSI 2 & 3 high-visibility vests and workwear, eliminating the need for wearable electronic beacons.
Enhances worker safety in pedestrian-heavy areas by ensuring forklifts detect people before they become collision risks.
Provides consistent performance across different lighting conditions, making it ideal for dimly lit warehouses or outdoor loading zones.

Key Benefits

Increased Forklift Safety & Awareness

Prevents forklift-related accidents by alerting operators to workers, other forklifts, and infrastructure risks before collisions occur.
Enhances operator focus by eliminating unnecessary distractions from false alarms, allowing for safer, more controlled forklift operation.
Reduces the risk of injuries, property damage, and costly operational downtime associated with forklift collisions.

Reduced Workplace Injuries & OSHA Incident Rates

Fewer forklift accidents mean lower medical costs, reduced worker compensation claims, and improved productivity.
Reduces downtime caused by accident investigations, equipment repairs, and legal complications.
Helps companies maintain a strong safety record, leading to lower insurance premiums and improved worker morale.

Optimized Forklift Navigation & Efficiency

Reduces congestion and bottlenecks in warehouse aisles by guiding forklift operators safely through high-risk areas.
Enables smoother material handling and predictable traffic flow, improving overall warehouse productivity.
Encourages workers to stay clear of forklift operating zones, reinforcing safer workplace habits.
With infrared-based forklift proximity detection and alarms, SEEN Safety provides an intelligent, reliable solution for improving workplace safety and preventing costly forklift-related accidents.
