SmartSpace Forklift Tracking – The Ultimate Forklift Monitoring System

2024-03-26T16:26:11+00:00

Real-time forklift tracking in an age of IoT devices is becoming increasingly common in all sorts of environments, including warehouses, factories, ports, and logistics hubs. Historically, inventory has been tracked with simple RFID tags, requiring manual scanning, or more complex and cumbersome Bluetooth or “Active” RFID tags. Now, there are RTLSs (Real-time Location Systems) that can be set up with fewer sensors, higher accuracy, and a far greater number of benefits. Ours is called

Optimizing Transport Logistics in the Digital Age

2024-03-26T16:26:13+00:00

Transport logistics has rested at the core of many businesses and urban environments for a long time, but over the past few years, efficiently running transport hubs, ports, industrial loading docks, and warehousing facilities has only become more difficult. Shortages in staff, increase in fuel prices, more diverse transport fleets (including EVs), and the expense of land for parking and loading have all applied pressure to this critical work. On top of this, pressure
