Variants of BlueSpot device
Hamburg, Germany
Linde Material Handling is offering two new versions of the BlueSpot visual driving path warning device.
Since launching in March 2011, Linde MH says the high-intensity, low-consumption LED lights have become a popular retrofit solution for trucks. There are now two new product versions available for counterbalance and warehouse trucks.
A recent addition to the range is a "spot" featuring red LEDs. The addition of this warning device means that the most effective signal can now be produced in relation to the colour of the floor. The "BlueSpot directional" variant is also new: The LED light projects a blue arrow onto the floor, indicating the drive direction of the approaching truck.
It is now also possible to fit the warning device to narrow aisle trucks and reach trucks.
