Excavators, wheel loaders, sweepers, forklift trucks: The company RCS from Werne uses Linde Safety Guard on various vehicles to protect employees and external personnel from dangerous situations on the recycling site.

Case Intro Teaser Item

The problem:

  • People are difficult to see for excavator and wheel loader drivers
  • Loading of trucks with high load capacity and limited field of vision for forklift drivers
  • Crossing traffic on the recycling site with different vehicle types and speeds
  • Operations in sorting systems with lots of pedestrians
  • External employees enter and leave the company premise

Fleet: Excavators from various manufacturers, 16 ton JCB wheel loader, Dulevo sweepers, Linde forklift fleet E35 and H35

The solution:

  • Linde Safety Guard with pedestrian detection
  • Virtual Gates: Forklifts have different speed limits in different areas to maintain efficiency
  • People from external companies and truck drivers receive a Portable Unit with integrated theft protection at the registration desk: An acoustic signal sounds as soon as Portable Units are outside the company premises
  • Customer is committed to the well-being of employees and to innovative technologies in order to support employees in their daily work as best as possible: The company was recognized as an employer of the future by the German Innovation Institute for Sustainability and Digitalization

The result:

Since the introduction of the Linde Safety Guard, RCS from Werne did not detect any accident between pedestrians and forklift trucks.
