Excavators, wheel loaders, sweepers, forklifts: The company RCS from Werne equips its vehicles on the recycling site with Linde Safety Guard to protect employees and external personnel from dangerous situations. The company RCS from Werne was recently recognized as an employer of the future by the German Innovation Institute for Sustainability and Digitalization.

Case Intro Teaser Item

The problem:

  • People are difficult to see for excavator and wheel loader drivers
  • Loading of trucks with high load capacity and limited field of vision for forklift drivers
  • Crossing traffic on the recycling site with different vehicle types and speeds
  • Operation of the sorting systems requires the use of pedestrians
  • External personnel enter and leave the company premises

Fleet: excavators from various manufacturers, 16 ton JCB wheel loader, Dulevo sweepers, Linde forklift fleet E35 and H35

The solution:

  • Customer uses Linde Safety Guard with personal warning: Forklifts are only reduced in speed at certain points and in individual halls in order to maintain the performance of the fleet
  • People from external companies and truck drivers receive a portable unit with integrated theft protection at the registration desk: An acoustic signal sounds as soon as portable units are outside the company premises
  • Customer is committed to the well-being of employees and to innovative technologies in order to support employees in their daily work as best as possible: The company was recognized as an employer of the future by the German Innovation Institute for Sustainability and Digitalization

The result:

Since the introduction of the Linde Safety Guard, RCS from Werne has not been able to detect any accidents between people and forklifts.
