Discussion:
Linde forklift retrofitting

Hello,

I'm an engineering student working on my bachelor's thesis and I have to retrofit a Linde forklift to enable it to be remote controlled via Wifi. I want to add some cameras and sensors + central controller. Ideally, I would like to find a retrofitting kit, but I haven't found any. Does anybody know more about it?

I also need to know if I can interact with the forklift system using CAN bus. I don't have access to the forklift yet so does anybody know if it's possible? It will be a Linde vehicle.

Thanks,
Tristan L.

We want to use an E series forklift, but I don't have a truck yet. I will chose one from the E series.

HI It is certainly possible, Raniero forklifts , make a low OHG 12 ton capacity forklift that can be driven into a container remotely (wireless) using their canbus system, to work on the Linde you may need access to their canbus coding? but theoretically it is possible.

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
