Quick Contact

Optimize Fleets and Routes, Maximize Forklift Utilization

Real-time location tracking provides valuable insights to enhance forklift productivity and fleet management. By analyzing operator performance, usage hours, and movement patterns, businesses can identify inefficiencies and improve workflows. Visual tools, such as spaghetti diagrams and heat maps, offer a clear understanding of operations, enabling smarter decisions. Insights into actual usage trends support not only fleet size optimization but also better resource allocation and utilization. Together, these tools lead to significant improvements in safety, efficiency, and overall fleet management.

Real-Time Location Tracking Without Blind Spots

Leverages UWB technology to provide precise tracking, unaffected by obstacles like walls or shelves. Ensures forklift and operator visibility in all facility areas, enhancing efficiency.

Actionable Reports for Smarter Operations

Provides detailed reports, including vehicle utilization, aisle traffic, and congestion patterns, to help streamline workflows and improve overall efficiency.

Customizable Workflows for Maximum Output

Adjustable zones and alerts tailored to your facility’s layout and needs, streamlining operations while minimizing delays and bottlenecks.

Better Utilization, Higher Performance, Increased Savings

Litum’s forklift tracking software provides detailed insights into your fleet’s operations. The system offers comprehensive data, from precise forklift utilization rates categorized by vehicle type to in-depth aisle congestion reports, helping to pinpoint inefficiencies and optimize resource allocation.

Advanced reporting capabilities, including heatmaps and historical trend analysis, empower businesses to visualize movement patterns, identify underutilized assets, and reduce bottlenecks in real time.

With Litum’s forklift tracking, you’re not just monitoring movements – you’re leveraging actionable insights through intuitive dashboards and automated alerts, enabling smarter, faster decisions that drive productivity, safety, and operational excellence.

How Forklift Tracking Works

Litum’s forklift tracking system uses ultra-wideband (UWB) active RFID technology to provide precise, real-time location data. Vehicle tags installed on forklifts and lifting equipment act like an “indoor GPS,” delivering unmatched accuracy of location data.

These tags communicate with Litum’s RTLS mesh network, a highly reliable infrastructure of interconnected anchors and gateways that work together to track movement in real time. The mesh network ensures seamless coverage across your facility, capturing signals from the tags even in challenging environments like warehouses with high racks, blind spots, or heavy equipment. Advanced algorithms process these signals to determine exact locations with pinpoint accuracy.

The real-time data, including both vehicle and operator positions, is then sent to Litum’s RTLS software. Hosted on your servers, the software offers an intuitive interface for monitoring forklift activity and generating detailed reports.
