Forklift fleet management system gets remote immobilisation

Nov. 12, 2012 - PRLog -- Transmon Engineering launches iTEch Fleet, a forklift fleet management system that not only helps site managers easily monitor and control truck usage, it also significantly heightens security.

“The new iTEch Fleet helps companies achieve complete visibility of their entire forklift operation through one secure portal,” says Paul Sercombe of Leicester based Transmon Engineering (http://www.transmon.com/index.asp). “iTEch Fleet not only does this remotely, it can automatically immobilise a truck when it leaves a designated area.”

Transmon has introduced remote immobilisation to help safeguard high value mobile equipment against prohibited removal from a site. The forklift fleet management system (http://www.transmon.com/products.asp) also has a truck locator feature that can help managers of larger fleets locate equipment and drivers on large or multiple sites.

Fitted to any materials handling fleet, iTEch Fleet includes remote truck run hour collection service, truck contractual performance monitoring to ensure accurate truck usage invoicing.  It can help plan truck service schedules, helps avoid excessive truck usage costs and provides traceability through driver accountability leading to reduced truck damage.

The data can be downloaded via SIM card or data link conversion, with a monthly data transfer upload.

Transmon Engineering will be exhibiting iTEch for the first time at the International Materials Handling Exhibition (IMHX) at The NEC, Birmingham, March 19th – 22nd 2013. IMHX is firmly established as the UK’s premier intralogistics event, jointly owned by Informa Exhibitions Ltd and BITA (British Industrial Truck Association).
