FOSAS — Alert FOSCS — Control

The Problem

Overspeed is a root cause of many safety incidents in material handling environments. Without real-time enforcement, operators exceed safe limits.

Collision Risk — Speeding forklifts endanger pedestrians, workers, and other equipment. Reduced reaction time compounds the danger.
Property Damage — High-speed collisions damage racking systems, goods, and infrastructure. Costly repairs and downtime follow.
Equipment Wear — Excessive speed stresses hydraulics, motors, and suspension. Accelerated failure shortens asset lifespan.
No Visibility — Management lacks real-time data on operator speed behavior. Incidents happen without warning or insight.

How It Works

Speed Sensing

High-precision sensor monitors real-time vehicle speed continuously and accurately across all operating conditions.

Threshold Check

System compares current speed against configurable limit. Alert triggered immediately if threshold is exceeded.

Alert / Control

Audio/visual alert activates immediately. FOSCS models can cut ignition or engage brake for enforcement.

Record & Clear

Violations logged on screen. Cleared by authorized personnel via RFID card or IR remote for accountability.

Key Features

High-Precision Speed Sensor

Accurately measures vehicle speed in real time. Reliable operation across all material handling environments.

Configurable Speed Limit

Easy-to-use interface for setting speed thresholds. Adapt limits to different zones and operational needs.

Dual System Options

FOSAS provides alert-only; FOSCS adds ignition/brake control for proactive enforcement and safety.
