At Lacor Textil, safety and efficiency are essential in our operations. With the goal of optimizing the management of our forklift fleet and improving safety in our logistics warehouses, we have implemented the Jungheinrich FMS fleet management system. This system, which began operating a month ago, marks a step forward in the digitalization and control of our operations.
The Jungheinrich FMS is an advanced digital solution that enables efficient forklift control in the warehouse. This tool integrates all relevant machine and business data into a single system, facilitating decision-making based on detailed analysis. Its key features include:
Smart Access Control
Each authorized driver has a personal, non-transferable card, which is required to turn the forklifts on and off. This allows for accurate recording of which machine each person has used.
Impact Notification
If a forklift is impacted, it automatically reduces its speed to slow motion. To reactivate it, the operator must inform their supervisor, who will check that there is no damage to the machine or the facilities and then reactivate it.
Improves Workplace Safety
This system significantly improves workplace safety by minimizing damage to both forklifts and our warehouse infrastructure. Its ability to detect impacts as they occur allows us to respond immediately, which not only reduces the costs of potential repairs but also ensures a safer working environment for all operators.
Cost and Productivity Analysis
Real-time data collection makes it possible to optimize fleet composition and reduce operating costs.
Transparency in Management
A clear view of the utilization and maintenance of each machine is obtained, facilitating resource planning.
First Steps and Future Expansion
For now, this system has been implemented in Lacor Textil’s logistics department, where the teams are fully adapting to this new work methodology. In the future, we are considering expanding the use of the Jungheinrich FMS to the production areas to further strengthen safety and efficiency in all our operations.
With this advancement, we reaffirm our commitment to safety, innovation, and the optimization of our resources. At Lacor Textil, we continue to evolve to offer the best solutions to our employees and customers.
