Linde Reverse Assist Radar

Preventing reversing collisions

What if reversing a forklift could be safer, smarter, and more efficient?

Restricted visibility when reversing is one of the most common causes of accidents in material handling environments. Counterbalanced forklifts reversing in tight spaces often face challenges such as blind spots, distracted operators and unpredictable obstacles. These risks can lead to costly collisions with pedestrians, racking, or other trucks.

Intelligent intervention for immediate action

  • The radar considers multiple factors, such as the truck’s speed, steering angle, lifting height, and distance to obstacles.
  • With a braking force of up to 3m/s², the Linde Reverse Assist Radar reacts more strongly than other systems on the market, ensuring maximum safety.
  • The system adapts braking behaviour to each situation, minimising risks while maintaining safety.

Multi-layered warnings: Alerting drivers before accidents happen

Warnings are delivered through a combination of sound and visual cues to ensure the operator is fully aware of imminent danger.

  • Acoustic signals: A warning tone alerts the driver of a potential collision.
  • Visual indicators: If the forklift is equipped with the optional 7” display, the system provides additional visual alerts, showing the driver where to focus attention.
