Toyota Material Handling UK has
announced that as of 1st September
2011 all new BT Reflex reach trucks
will be fitted with shock sensors as
standard. Today's fast paced
warehouse environments put stress on
both operators and equipment which
can result in unpredictable damage to
goods, equipment and infrastructure.
Toyota fits shock sensors as standard to its entire range of BT Reflex reach trucks, allowing any impact to trucks to be monitored, recorded and linked to drivers - leading to cost savings as well as increased safety on-site.
Mounted on the truck, shock sensors give the ability to record impact. The threshold for impact can be preset and only impacts exceeding the threshold value will be registered.
