A forklift (also called lift truck, jitney, fork truck, fork hoist, and forklift truck) is a powered industrial truck used to lift and move materials over short distances. The forklift was. Standard automated AisleCop® systems utilize motion detection or other sensors as they scan for forklifts, AGVs, walkies, or other industrial traffic. Intelligent controls help control traffic flow to potentially minimize contact between pedestrians and forklifts.

BYD, the world’s largest producer of pure electric buses – 10,000 have been produced so far – has made an important step in its plan to introduce its zero emission products in France.
Built on standard production chassis, Yale robotic lift trucks allow you to automate repetitive, low value added tasks by picking up, transporting and dropping off pallets independently and reliably. Enhance labor productivity, optimize workflow and help increase your bottom line by transforming to robotic lift. The Toyota Center-Controlled Rider Automated Forklift uses advanced technology in environmental detection to automate tasks in your warehouse. Request a quote!

It has secured a six-month trial of one of its buses with internationally renowned public transport operator RATP.
Automated Forklift Warehouse
The bus will begin operation in September this year and will run until February 2017 – so spanning the extremes of hot and cold temperatures in the French capital. The trial will include operation on routes 21 and 147.
An agreement covering the trial was signed today at the Transports Publics 2016 event taking place in Paris. It was signed by Madame Elisabeth Borne, CEO of RATP, and Isbrand Ho, Managing Director of BYD Europe.
Mme Borne said: “The conclusion of this new agreement shows the ambition of RATP to become a major player in the energy transition of the public transport sector. We wish to test a maximum of vehicles before launching massive tenders from 2017. With great support from STIF, the Paris metropolis will become the first in the world possessing a fully ecologic bus fleet.”
Mr Ho commented: “This is a significant step for BYD since France and in particular Paris is recognised as a public transport thought leader globally. We heard of the tremendous commitment to improving air quality by both the French government and the Paris regional government when we attended the UN’s COP21 discussions here last December. Now, we are delighted to be contributing one of our buses to the trial programme underway in the city”.
In the French national political context, an “Energy transition law” is influencing the change to cleaner vehicles. Indeed, from 2020 all public transport organisations will have to plan in their fleet renewal to purchase at least 50% of clean vehicles.
The Project “Bus 2025” consists of the renewal of the complete RATP fleet to clean vehicles. Several milestones are in place to achieve this by 2025 when the fleet should consist of 80% electric buses and 20% CNG buses. This plan is unprecedented, since it concerns the entire RATP bus network in Île-de-France, one of the largest in the world. It has 350 lines and transports each year 1.1 billion passengers with a fleet consisting of 4,500 vehicles. The issue is especially important, since buses represents 50% of the carbon footprint of the RATP.
BYD’s 12m ebus, which will be used in the Paris trial, has been proven in similar pilot studies in over 150 cities worldwide, and will form Europe’s largest full size pure electric bus fleet when 51 enter service in London later this year. BYD is in the process of introducing a full range of electric buses – ranging from an 8.6m midi bus to an 18m articulated bus and a double decker. The world’s first pure electric coach was premiered in Paris earlier this year.
BYD France is now in operation under the direction of industry experts Bertrand Berger and Julien Bahri.
'Forklifts and pedestrians don't mix, but we have to make it work. If you want to make your people safer in mixed-use zones, we can help you create a custom solution. Because it's intelligent, automated and highly configurable, AisleCop helps make the most dangerous zones—blind corners, busy intersections, tight spaces and low-visibility crossings—safer. Call or send an inquiry today, and we'll get to work on your solution.'

People and forklifts don't mix
We can help you automate the separation of traffic and pedestrians while maintaining traffic flow
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, about 100 workers are killed and another 20,000 are injured every year by forklifts in the U.S. alone, so safety is always a concern whenever forklifts and people operate in the same space, like they do in most warehouses, shops, factories, distribution centers or lumber yards.
The AisleCop® Safety Gate System helps control traffic to separate forklifts and pedestrians. Depending on the conditions you specify, the gates can restrict pedestrians, restrict forklifts, or restrict both in a highly configurable traffic management plan.
Ideal for blind or limited visibility spots, high-traffic intersections, and other high-exposure areas
Dangerous or blind intersections where visibility may be limited, such as high speed doors, or very high traffic areas are where traffic control gates are most highly recommended. When properly utilized, these gates can potentially help reduce or eliminate lift truck/pedestrian accidents.
AisleCop® Safety System Operation
Automated Forklift Agv
The system is flexible. Standard automated AisleCop® systems utilize motion detection or other sensors as they scan for forklifts, AGVs, walkies, or other industrial traffic. Intelligent controls help control traffic flow to potentially minimize contact between pedestrians and forklifts. You can specify rules exactly as desired for your operational and safety needs.
AisleCop® Automatic Safety System Operation
Automatic Forklift Parts
- To cross the aisle, pedestrians press a button. Other methods, including pull cords for the forklift aisle, pressure-mat, in-ground loops, or photoeye activation can also be utilized either with buttons or independent of them. Typical systems will utilize push buttons
- Sensors search for fork trucks (or stackers, walkies, AGV's, or other industrial traffic) in the designated zone or aisle
- If a forklift is detected, lights flash and the gates remain closed until the fork lift aisle is clear
- If no traffic is detected, lights flash, an audible alarm beeps and the gates open into the aisle on opposing sides, creating a visual barrier for forklift drivers and allowing pedestrians to cross
- Once the gates are open, a motion sensor detects the presence of pedestrians in the crossing aisle. The gates remain open as long as individuals are detected. This can also be set on a timer, with any logic specified for your operation
- Once pedestrians are clear, gates automatically close after a predetermined interval and enter standby mode so forklifts can cross the aisle
- AisleCop® can interface with alarm systems for emergency unrestricted egress. During fire alarms or other defined emergencies, gates can be set to automatically open and remain open until reset
Automatic Forklift Leveling
AisleCop® systems are safety tools that help define and control access to forklift aisles. They do not provide 100% protection from industrial traffic accidents. AisleCop® gates do not stop forklifts or other industrial traffic. Other critical factors, such as system maintenance, driver compliance, and pedestrian/individual compliance, enforcement of crossing lanes, and assessment of safe crossings are the responsibility of individuals and companies.
