More Security for Forklift Drivers
Access Control
A Personal Transponder for the employees is particularly important for safety. A large part of the forklift trucks is operable with just a few keys – keys that anyone can order on the internet. The RFID transponder, however, has a unique encoding. And the software stores exactly which user is allowed to operate which machine. A time limit can also be defined – important e.g. for temporary workers. Mandatory training and health checks are also monitored with the Mobile Easykey software.
For supervisors and workshop staff there are further special transponders. With the Master Transponder, a forklift can be released after a crash – after inspection. The Workshop Transponder is used for the transfer to the workshop.

Accident Prevention
With the introduction of the system, the number of accidents and the associated costs generally decrease drastically.
This has a well-intentioned effect: Even if the personal data can only be read out in the presence of a works council employee, depending on the data protection setting, the anonymity of the user is removed. After an accident, it is transparent who last used the forklift.
With the introduction of the Personal Transponder, for example at Lufthansa Cargo, the number of damages was reduced by 50 %. When staff knew that it was possible to trace who was driving, they drove more cautiously. Like many other companies, Lufthansa Cargo now uses the existing factory ID card for this purpose.

Maintenance and UVV
In the Mobile Easykey software, appointments for UVV and maintenance can be stored. The reminders are made according to the traffic light system: green, yellow, red and red flashing in case of overdue. In the last stage, additional warnings are also issued via pop-up windows and e-mails, e.g. to the security officer.
Pro-active, the vehicle can also be shut down in case of overdue maintenance and can only be started with the master- or workshop transponder. While UVV tests are carried out according to rigid time intervals, thanks to Mobile Easykey, maintenance can be carried out dynamically, according to the effective hours of use.

Departure Control
At the start of work, shift change or after a crash, each user must perform a short technical check. This control is possible via an app. The questions can be worded individually for each vehicle type. In addition, a country code can be stored in the transponder for each driver, so that the departure check is carried out in the respective national language. The changing yes/no answer protects against memorisation.
Furthermore, Mobile Easykey offers an LED departure control.
Crash Sensor
The patented Crash Sensor works dual. A three-axis acceleration sensor is supplemented by a body sound microphone that measures the sound of the body in the fixed mass of the vehicle. If both sensors are activated within 250 milliseconds, a crash alarm is triggered. Then various, freely selectable scenarios are possible: from an entry in the logbook of the software to the time-delayed shut down of the forklift.

Compliance
Mobile Easykey is in close contact with trade associations, occupational safety officers and associations such as VDI (Association of German Engineers) and VDMA (Association of German Mechanical- and Plant Engineering). The current legal regulations are always considered in the further development of the system. Mobile Easykey supports companies in a variety of ways.
In addition to the measures already mentioned, such as Access Control, shut down after an accident or compliance with UVV intervals, the documentation and archiving of all processes in the logbook of the software is an important factor.

Data Security
In most companies the protection of personal data has been a security-relevant issue, not only since the General Data Protection Regulation. Mobile Easykey‘s GDPR compliance is independently verified and confirmed.
